I requested listings on this site for French Creek, Gould Run and Hickory Run. Let's see if they accept them. They don't have us as a category, so I put trail run and novelty run for the score O. Where would you look for a race near you?

Nice

I use www.pretzelcitysports.com for all of my races.  At some point I'd like to utilize their promotion (they get 300-500 people at Mt Penn trail races), but we'd have to come up with a solid plan first.  It's a pay for service, but markets directly to some key areas (French Creek, Mt Penn, Nolde, etc.).
 
Maybe you've seen this...OUSA has a list of recommended free promo sites:

I'll try to get something on a Meetup site.
