Nike Women's Marathon San Fransisco
















It seemed as though a lot of us ran a Marathon, somewhere on the planet this past weekend!
Lots of us Roadrunners including the remaining ones from Catherine Hardings clinic in Toronto, Roger Ison in Amsterdam, and Tracy MacLean & Cindy Marcelli in San Fransisco for the Nike womens Marathon. At first glance, the course elevation map looks like a 50k trail run, but it is San fransisco ladies. Lots of hills including a 4 mile climb to mile 15, all scenic. Entry to this event is by lottery which opens in the spring, or charity group only. A couple of different things, like no real Expo, you see Nike is the sponsor so all race-clothing,gear is sold through Niketown, 7 floors of it. You also receive your tech event shirt after you cross the finish line. Oh yes, and the coveted Tiffanys necklace presented by tuxedo clad firemen is quite a deal.
I didnt forget about you Erin, you had a great time at 4:14 I believe, well done.
Congrats to all, and good thing for hill training!!
