Any advice from Race directors? (Read 151 times)
posted: 5/25/2007 at 2:32 AM
Hello those of you who have had the pleasure of being in charge of a race.... I am considering starting a trail half marathon and marathon here in my hometown of Auburn, CA. I was just wondering how much time it really takes..... a lot or TONS? I work part-time, have two kids, and am trying to maintain my own medium-high running schedule right now. I'm pretty good at planning and being organized, I think. And although I have several freinds who run, I'm not sure exactly how much they are willing to go along with this hairbrained idea.

Any words of wisdom?
San Francisco Marathon*Timberline Marathon*Lost Dutchman Marathon*Reno Cinco de Mayo Marathon

Tahoe Rim Trail 50k*Glacial Trail 50k*Grand Teton Trail Marathon*Goblin Valley 50k

I directed a 5k.

Once.

It was a huge time commitment with zero budget, I definitely did not go for a second round at this point in my life. It was key to delegate, but was still a pain in the ass. It was a lot of fun though... enjoy.
Some runners drag a tire. I drag a Great Pyrenees.
