Runners run
If you wear an iPod in the Country Music Marathon won't you miss out on all the...country music?
This has always confused me, as it seems that the majority of the live bands play anything BUT country music. In fact, in 07 during my first ever marathon, I got to mile 12 (right where the convent of nuns always stand - to which I raised my hands and made the entire group of nuns scream...who can say that?) and the band was playing "You're no good, you're no good, you're no good, baby you're no good..." My encouragement factor went from about a 9.5 to a -3.2. But then, the nuns came so...

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Why is it sideways?

stops
And I'm not running 1/3 mile loops! (although that prison race sounds pretty cool and the constant music would be fun)
Music ain't good enough to stop. Often, it motivates you to keep moving, to get out of earshot.
It is really cool. And you run WITH prisoners. And there is fluid every 1/9 mile. And Gu every 1/3 mile. And you have a prisoner assigned to YOU making sure your needs are met every 1/3 mile, logging your 1/3 mile splits and keeping track of how far you have gone. Very cool.
That prison race does sound cool. Where is it?
Also, I sorta cheated on my estimated entry time so i wouldn't be so far back in corrals. I landed in 10 which is probably a 9:30 pace, way fast for me, but what the heck.
