Central Virginia is becoming quite the sports place in the eyes of national magazines lately—recreational sports, that is. In its January issue, Runner’s World magazine named the Charlottesville Marathon as one of the 10 best up-and-coming marathons in the country. This accolade follows on the heels of Trail Runner magazine recognizing the Great Eastern Trail Run, which goes through the Blue Ridge Mountains, as one of the top trail series in the country, and Golf Digest naming the golf course at Spring Creek Golf Club in Charlottesville as "Best New Public Under $75." To all this great news we have just one thing to add: The dentist and doctors’ offices around town need to start offering more reading material than just big daddys like People and Time.
