| I'm looking for a good Alaska marathon, with emphasis on scenery and nice friendly atmosphere. Don't care about spectators or a "fast" course. Alaska runners, help me out! |

There's another Anchorage marathon that was called Humpy's Marathon in held in August (I think they're calling it something else this year.) There's the very hilly Equinox Marathon in Fairbanks and several smaller communities in SE Alaska host a marathon; Prince of Wales Island in May, Juneau in August (my hometown) and I believe that Ketchikan also hosts one. If you're looking for a small town feel, the Juneau folks will even pick you up from the airport if you need a ride. Check it out on www.southeastroadrunners.org |

The Alaska Salmon Runs Marathon looks unique. They have a car follow every runner so you get eaten by a bear.

| Bugs, they don't do that race every year... and there's no 2008 information on the web site. I sent an e-mail to the organizers, and it came back as undeliverable. So... hard to say what this year will bring! It does look like fun though, and there's a 10k and 5k also... Hey, my DH said if you come up here for it, he'll run it with you! |
