Erin Griner | 2018 C-VILLE-athon Finisher

​This was my first year participating in the C-VILLE-athon. It's such a unique program and it inspired me to run many races I've never run before. While all of the races I ran were unique and fun in their own way, my favorite C-VILLE-athon race was the Charlottesville 10 miler. It was my first time running the race and I had so much fun! The number of people out cheering for the runners was amazing, and the entire race had such a great vibe that for me really sums up what the town of Charlottesville is all about.

I would recommend the C-VILLE-athon because it is a great way to discover local races while at the same time supporting different causes in our community. This year's C-VILLE-athon was especially fun/special for me because my husband (fellow C-VILLE-athon completer Dan Warthen) and I ran most of the races together. Even though he's way faster than me, he still let me beat him a couple of times too! I'm looking forward to running many of these great races again next year!
