]]> Fall’s a great time to sign up for community races and to support the causes that you’re passionate about. But with COVID-19 still in full-effect, is it safe to run these races? While a lot of events are going virtual, which means that you can run or walk them on your own, there are still in-person races still scheduled across the country. So, is it safe to participate and what precautions can you take to stay safe?

To put it as directly as possible, no group activities are safe now. An outdoor race is safer than a lot of activities, if health and safety measures are followed. The safety of races depends on how they’re organized and what safety measures are put into place. Some questions to ask are is the race staff wearing masks and gloves, is everything being sanatized every half hour, can medical aid provide care in a safe way, are refreshment and aid stations contact-fee, is the check-in process contact-free, and are there hand sanatizing stations?

Are you planning to race a turkey trot this year? ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ Whether you are going to be in person racing or virtual racing like the @woodburywobble, you need to train. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ Having a clear training plan will help you focus on increasing speed, feeling strong through the longer runs, build up your strength, and stabilize your core. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ The Finish Line Strong Training Plan gives you 12 weeks of run training for three levels of beginner, intermediate, and advanced runners. I took on the beginner plan a few months postpartum and ended up running a 23:40 5k, which is one of my adult bests! ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ That turkey trot is coming up in just 11 weeks, so make sure you start your run training plan now. Snag your training plan using the link in my profile and make this your strongest, fastest, and most fun turkey trot yet. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ This photo was from my fourth marathon, which I ran in 4:19:32 on just three weeks of training. Only two minutes off my PR! One of the most fun races ever. I found out the next week I was pregnant with Hazel. ?⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #wreckingroutine #runchat #turkeytrot #woodburywobble #woodburymn #runningmom #runlikeamother #healthyhappymom #postpartumrunning #5ktrainingplan #runtothefinish #runnerforlife #momofthreekids #thanksgivingrace #virtualrace #runforfun #healthblogger #runningcoach #momblog #fitnessblogger #runforfun #holidayrunning #thanksgiving2020

As you can see, there are tons of questions you should get answers to before you go ahead and sign up for races. Make sure you pay attention to cancelation clauses as most races aren’t refundable and they’re expensive.

If you do decide to run, wear a mask and stay six feet apart from people. The best way to stay safe is to not go and instead to try a virtual option.
