It is HOT. The finish is cool (as in 'interesting'. Still HOT)

Looking forward to the finish in Notre Dame's stadium (though really an avid Colorado fan). The finish helped me recruit the running group to join me. One of them mumbled something about being conceived on ND's campus which was more than I needed to know...

I did it last year and it was hot and very humid. I may do it again, but the course is a little goofy. There are two spots where you do a complete turn around, which i hate. A little hilly, but not bad. Great finish as year hear the fight song as you go through the tunnel and into the stadium. It seemed to be well organized and overall is worth doing again, but I have a wedding in ohio that day so not sure if I will do it.

Goals: 20 5k 1:35 Half Marathon 3:30 Marathon

I've run the half in prior years. Course is ok (it is SB afterall - not exactly Big Sur) and support is good. It can be very hot and humid but SB weather is unpredictable (could be 35 and raining just as easy). I'm running the marathon with a couple of friends so here's hoping for good racing weather.
