My 'Must-Run' Race Bucket List

Everybody has a race list of sorts. You know, the ones that sound awesome and you feel like you'd be missing out by not running them. I mentioned this morning that the Bay To Breakers is on my must-run list. Given a little more thought, here's a not-totally-complete list of races that I really want to run before I'm six feet under.

Most races listed here are races that I just want to experience. If I want a fast, flat race I can always run a marathon in Ohio or on the Outer Banks.

Bucket List Runs Completed:

• New York City (2009)
• National Marathon (2011)

Still On the List:

• Bay To Breakers
• Boston (duh. Though I have to qualify for this one -- no cheating by getting in with charity.)
• Big Sur Marathon
• Avenue of the Giants Marathon
• Comrades Marathon
• Hood To Coast
• JFK 50 Mile (I'm hoping to cross this one off this fall)
• Great Wall Marathon
• Pikes Peak Marathon

What races do you guys hope to run (or have you already crossed off your list)?
