The course is simple - 6 mile loop of the bike path done 4 times with a 1.15 mile out and back after the 4th loop. Depending on the weather (unpredictable in Michigan) this is the safest spot to do this.
Loop direction will alternate each time around.
Start Time: 9:00am @ the BOAT LAUNCH PARKING AREA (this should allow us enough time to run and get home for some FOOTBALL).
End Time: NO TIME LIMIT - this is a FAT ASS EVENT
I will provide a 5 gallon Jug of WATER and a 5 gallon jug of GATORADE. Anyone interested in providing food or other beverages to drink - PLEASE do so!!!
Marathon Maniacs - if we get enough people to Start (5) / Finish (3) it can be counted as an official race! Same with the 50 State Club Members.
More info to follow as the date nears!

Comment by Ryan Miller on January 6, 2012 at 8:31am I've heard so many people say that their worst fear was finishing last. I thought it was mine too. But it turns out that I kind of like that I finished last! It's one of the first things that I tell people about the marathon! (Although next time I'd like to at least finish in enough time to chat with a few other runners, and have a chance to check out the Just Finish gear.)
Comment by Mark E Ott on January 5, 2012 at 9:19pm No handstand b/c there was no photographer at the finish. We weren't holding hands, but we stepped over the frickin' line at the same time. Damnit. :)

Comment by Ryan Miller on January 5, 2012 at 8:31pm If times were the same...I flipped a coin to see what place you got into! SCIENTIFIC FAT ASS
Comment by Mark E Ott on January 5, 2012 at 8:23pm For the record, Matt and I had the exact same time. Trust me. I would like the record to reflect an official 'tie' for 2nd place. Thanx!
