Now that I am settled – not really but getting there, I want to encourage my friends, especially my running friends, to come visit Asheville. I am once again an ambassador for the Asheville Marathon and Half at Biltmore Estate.

The 2017 race is the fifth year. The race has grown each year. The first year there was only a full marathon. It sold out. The second year a half marathon was added. Last year the two races split days so that a challenge could be created and you can run both the half and the full in one weekend.

Now comes the good news! I have a discount code good through July 31st.

Use the code NICKI2017AMAROCKS to get a 15% discount on the race entry fee. This is the best discount that will be offered for these races. It is usable on any of the three events. The code gets entered at the END of the checkout process. It is not put in the invitation code area at the beginning.

This race is wonderful and run on a combination of surfaces. You can read my review of the race here.

Have you ever run the Asheville Marathon and Half at Biltmore Estate? Do you want to run it?
