There are MANY races and runs nearby as Baltimore, Washington DC, and Annapolis are all quite close. There are very active running clubs all around the DC Beltway communities - Baltimore Road Runners, Annapolis Striders, Montgomery County Road Runners, Howard County Striders, Chesapeake Bay Running Club, DC Road Runners, Potomac Valley Track Club, Washington RunHers, Prince Georges Running Club, Reston Runners, Westminster Running Club, etc. etc. The clubs sponsor low-key races, as well as providing support for many charity races. (And there are LOTS of those, raising funds for anything and everything imagineable!)
Around here, you can run a race almost every Saturday and Sunday, and often on weeknight evenings in the summertime. In the peak racing season, say from March to November, there are so many races, it's hard to decide which ones to choose!
* Life is change.
** Born in New Jersey. (A Jersey Girl, but I don't know "What Exit".) I went to college in Iowa. (NOT in a cornfield, but close.) I was a New Yorker. The proverbial Struggling Actor in Manhattan, and surviving pretty well for 20-something-ish years (I *heart* New York.)
*** Now I live below the Mason-Dixon line. (But I'm born and bred a YANKEE.)
***For awhile, I was an avid-almost-rabid runner, running WITH my camera much of the time. I have been experiencing some "aging ? and other issues", but I still doggedly clod-hoppily-plod my way through events, camera usually in hand. Now I'm even SLOWER than I used to be. *** :-P ***
** I used to help socialize local humane society cats in their foster home, and take photos for the website, but my Haven kitties moved to a farm in Virginia in May 2018. ~meow~
Awaiting my next incarnation, or not....***
I still have a phondness for photography & a recurring Flickr Addiction, so go see my photos!

How many race are there in your city? Here no more than 5/6 every year. As usual compliments for your photos. Happy 2006.
Soooo, who's Dave? And why are so many shirts thanking him?
