| Has anyone ever run the Buffalo Marathon? Is anyone planning on doing it this year? I am planning on it and it will be my first marathon. |

Hi,
Never run Buffalo, but have run Niagara Falls twice which starts in Buffalo. If you're looking for a late fall marathon after Buffalo, I do strongly suggest Niagara Falls. It's a very flat course and very beautiful along the river, small but very well organized, and it's the only marathon that starts in a country and ends in another. You clear the customs the day before.

I suspect I will run it one of these days. This year, I am running the Mississauga Marathon (May 11) just down the road from me. It also conflicts with the Ottawa Marathon - quite a popular one around here. Afterwards, be sure to go to Ted's Hot Dogs (http://www.tedsonline.com/) for a post-run meal.
Good luck. Go Bills. |

| Tuf I have been debating between Buffalo and Ottawa. I live near Buffalo and my folks have a place near Ottawa, so decisions decisions. |

I never have but would love to one day. I lived in Buffalo. on MLK park back in the 80s and loved the city. Worked at Baker Hall in Lackawanna.

| I have never run Buffalo, but people who I know who have said it was ok. On the other hand, I have run Ottawa twice and that is an outstanding marathon in my opinion. Good luck with your first! |

| I've heard nothing but good things about Ottawa. Unfortunately, the timing won't work for me this year, but it is definitely on my list. |
