For those of you who stay on top of The Running Green Girl's Race Schedule, you may have noticed that the Green Girl is doing a holiday race series this year.
It wasn't my intention to do every Christmas run in Southern California but I have a hard time saying no to really great causes.
This Saturday, I'm starting off my holiday race series running with Santa Claus at the beach at the Santa Monica - Venice Christmas Run. I even splurged and paid an extra $5 to get a technical shirt.
This race is organized by some fellow Sole Runners so I want to go out and show my support. Plus, we've all been promised a cupcake at the Finish Line.
And I'll follow the Santa cupcake run with a Winter Solstice Christmas Tree Run the next day.
The cool thing about this race is that every finisher will receive a Christmas tree.
