This Sunday will be the 40th running of the Falmouth Road Race. I took a sneak peek ahead at the weather, and it looks pretty good! You never know what you are going to get with the second weekend in August on the Cape (hopefully not too much heat and humidity).
I will be running again for Team Running for Cover (to benefit the Melanoma Foundation of New England). I can’t wait to run in support of this fabulous organization that raises melanoma awareness and provides valuable patient support services. Melanoma awareness is a cause that is very near and dear to me, and I am happy to have a way to honor my stepfather’s melanoma battle.
If you are interested in donating, you can visit my fundraising page HERE. Thank you so much to all of my wonderful readers, friends, and family who have donated. It means the world to me!
This Sunday will also be the first time that I will be rocking a running dress in a race! How cute is this Sexyback dress from Skirt Sports? It’s super comfy, and I think it will be perfect for Falmouth! I’m curious if any of you have ever raced in a dress…
So, who else is running Falmouth this year? I know there are some of you out there!
Dude i love the idea of a dress. I struggle with skirts due to chaffing,but given long enough shorts (and enough body glide) I’d really live rubning in them. And this dress solves the problem of shirt that rides up. Awesome idea. IBook forward to hearing your success story with it. Maybe i’ll save up for my own.
Oh … Question … Do their dresses have built in conpression shorts?
No built ins, you can wear what you want 🙂
I have several family members running Falmouth – enjoy the scenic run and be sure to hydrate (I know you will have on plenty of sunscreen).
I will! It’s great because the race always has people with hoses spraying down the runners and LOTs of water stops! 🙂 It’s a rolling 7 mile party (except of course for the hills!).
Cute dress : ) Have a great race!!!!!!!!
Have a great race, it is always nice to run for a good cause!
Love the look of your running dress. I’ve just started running again after a long break and running skirts/dresses weren’t around back then, so it’s a new look for me – but I love it!
It is Sherry! There are so many cute running things now–hope you are enjoying the new running fashion! 🙂
