The Buzz Marathon<br />
in San Miguel<br />
Runners will take to the trails<br />
on the historic Camp Roberts<br />
Army National Guard Reservation<br />
in San Miguel on <strong>February</strong> 16. The<br />
19th Annual Buzz Marathon is a<br />
Boston Qualifier and features an<br />
out-and-back course on paved<br />
road with dirt and packed gravel<br />
shoulders. The course features rolling<br />
hills and breathtaking views of<br />
oak-studded hillsides, the Salinas<br />
and Nacimiento Rivers, and Central<br />
Coast wildlife. In the past, the<br />
race has been likened to a trail run,<br />
according to the event’s organizers.<br />
Child care is available by request.<br />
The base museum and annex will<br />
be open during the race with some<br />
military vehicles for public viewing.<br />
All proceeds go toward funding<br />
the athletic programs at Lillian<br />
Larsen Elementary School.<br />

Hares 'N' Hounds<br />
5K and Fun Run<br />
The Atascadero Greyhound<br />
Foundation presents the all-ages,<br />
family friendly Hares ‘N’ Hounds<br />
5K and Fun Run on March 2. The<br />
money raised will help the organization<br />
fund its community-based<br />
programs and yearly operations.<br />
Local organizations are encouraged<br />
to use the event for their<br />
own fundraising efforts through<br />
individual and group sponsorships.<br />
The 5K course is a “certified loop<br />
run” that starts and finishes at the<br />
same spot at Atascadero Lake. The<br />
1-Mile and 1/2-Mile runs are out<br />
and back from the same start as<br />
the 5K. There are no road closures<br />
so good traffic awareness is important.<br />
