Update - Lewis and Clark Half/Full Marathon

Any procrastinators like myself, who can't decide to sign up or participate in the Half/Full marathon on September 16th, I have some registration news. I e-mailed the staff inquiring if there is a chance of closing the registration due to reaching its capacity.

Response:
We have a new course for 2007 which allows us to have unlimited registration. So there is no chance that it will close early. However, we will not accept any registrations after September 7th, so you must register online before then.

So let me ask, who is doing this event?

Not sure about the Markers. We are planning to go to the Cub/Card game that day. Could run the 1/2 and then head to the game. We'll see. Go Cubs!!!!

Hey Chuck - Troy's doing the full and I'm doing the half (now if he finishes the full before I finish the half.....)

Troy and I went a couple weeks ago and checked out the course-awesome. The half is flat except for the interstate area-great roads - so cool. The 2nd half - is out the Katy Trail and back which is really neat - two totally different terrains!

There is a great pub/restaurant "The Trail Head Inn" which is a lot of fun (try the honey wheat or the berry blend - oddly good!). We'll be at the Quality Inn which if you have a govt id - gets you in for less than 70 bucks and is a close drive (2 miles) from the start line (tons of parking - no worries at the start line).

After running on the course a couple weeks ago - I'm jazzed - it'll be such a neat experience!

see you all there!
