The New Mexico Marathon is on August 31st, and that will be state #9 (and the 6th one year) The course is one where the first 16 miles I've actually ridden my bike on. Also if I sign up by July 30th, I get a "free" wicking T-shirt.
Because. I can always use a free shirt. To add to all my other free shiRts. I'm calling out my local peeps: Dread Pirate, SWTriGal and H, Cindy and Lisa to do this one too.
C'mon, girls! I mean, it's a FREE TECH SHIRT!
(for only $68)
Added later: There's also a HALF marathon going at the same time.
According to this course profile. It's not as bad as it looks, but it appears that you run up to the top of a mountain and then roll downhill for four miles.
Seriously, that first uphill will get your attention and as the downhills can be hard on the quads, it's good to practice them.
And coolness: I can practice on the course itself!
Oh, one more thing: Em. >Sheepish grin and blush<
I was in the local paper.
...
Yes -- it's fabulous!

ReplyDeleteYou are ROCKING the marathons! I'm going to check out those book recommendations. Great article!!
ReplyDeleteOh, by the way, I found and posted a new "fat picture" on my blog. Stop by and have a look. I, myself, love fat pictures. When said person is no longer fat of course. Otherwise they are no fun at all!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool the paper interviewed you . And did it well. Sometimes these stories make people look like "lunatic fringe". This story didn't do that.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! Famouser than Captain Kangaroo!
ReplyDeleteThey have the link wrong for beginnertriathlete, though!

ReplyDeleteGreat article-you deserve the recognition.
ReplyDeleteYou find the most interesting courses. Ever run anything flat??LOL.
Well, most of New Mexico is on the southeast end of the Rockies, and full of extinct volcanoes and canyons, so, no. Not a lot of flat places. those are all down south. And they're hot and WINDY.
ReplyDeleteGreat article....
