Tuesday Topics: The race I would run if I win an all-expenses paid trip

This week’s Tuesday Topic:  You’ve won an all-expenses paid trip to run a race anywhere in the world.  What race would it be?  You can write about this topic or post any running-related blog post.  Remember to link up with Kim and me!  Visit at least two of the other linked posts – the more the merrier!  Remember to come back for later linkers! 

Oh my!  I have written about the World Major Marathon I would run if I had a free entry.  The marathon I picked is Boston.  Let’s change it up a bit.  What if it is an all-expenses paid trip?  In that case, let’s go international!  

I couldn’t narrow it down to one race so here is a list of a couple half marathons:

✈️ Sydney Morning Herald Half Marathon

✈️ Guayaquil Half Marathon

✈️ Media Maraton de Bogota

✈️ Kilimanjaro Trail Run

✈️ The Marakez Pyramids Half Marathon

✈️ Dead Sea Half Marathon Israel

✈️ New Balance Media Maratón Cali

✈️ Berlin Half Marathon

✈️ Athens Half Marathon

✈️ Dublin Half Marathon

✈️ Nice Half Marathon

I am thinking that for this race I would need 1 1/2 to 2 weeks because of travel time, time zone change, and time to explore. 
 
Have you run or heard of any of these races?  Which one would you like to run?
 

The topic for next:  What are your Summer running plans and/or race schedule?  We hope you’ll link up with us!

    I would join you for any of these (but why does the Kilimanjaro trail run sound really hard?) I can see why you had trouble narrowing it down!

      A trail run sounds hard anyway and throw in Kilimanjaro, well, that just tops it.

    Love your list, especially the race in Sydney! I would love to visit Australia and what better way to explore the area than with a race 🙂

    I haven’t heard of the Kilimanjaro Trail Run but I’ve heard the Kilimanjaro Marathon is epic! Very hard because of the hills and high altitude but a once in a lifetime experience! To your list, I would add the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon – I’ve heard one of the prettiest in the world, so that would be on mine!

      Maybe it is the same race? I checked out the Cape Town Marathon and see that it is an Abbott World Marathon Major candidate for the second year!

        Yes, we are praying and hoping it becomes a major!!!! Would love that one in Africa!
