Description:
what better way to spend a Sunday morning in the high desert than to huff, puff, and sweat your way across the border, then quaff beer and margaritas? update: no race was scheduled for 2008, but I plan to run it anyway, whether anyone else shows up or not. 2nd Sunday in November at 10AM near the 3-mile marker on NM Highway 11 if anyone's interested. I posted it at the runnersworld.com forums too. update late 2009: just run any old 5k!
