Beach to Beacon? (Read 270 times)

PWL view log posted: 7/26/2007 at 1:15 AM I know there aren't too many people from my part of the country, but is anyone else running the Beach to Beacon in Cape Elizabeth this year? It's a week from Saturday. The wife and I are running--looking forward to it! "I would never die for my beliefs, because I might be wrong."--Bertrand Russell

Run To Win view log Blaine Moore posted: 7/27/2007 at 7:42 PM My wife and I are also running it, as we do every year. Last year, we moved just far enough away that it wasn't worth training on the course ahead of time, and I was worried about that 6th mile. It was all right though; the hill remembered me! I'm just hoping I manage to get an elite number. I've been in the top 100 3 years running, have beaten plenty of people with sub-100 numbers, and last year was in the 60 range. I don't see it happening, though. Run to Win I just started using Twitter - anybody else on there? http://twitter.com/RunToWin

Next Wednesday, run with the elites...of course, this is the only week for the back cove 5k series that I'll be missing.

Run To Win view log Blaine Moore posted: 8/5/2007 at 5:52 PM PWL - how did you do yesterday? They wound up giving out 155 elite numbers instead of just 100 this year, which was nice. It was good to be able to move around before the race, and get food immiediately following the race. I was about 20 seconds slower than I wanted to be at my top end, about 30-40 seconds below where I realistically had hoped to be. I went out way too fast. My gun time was 35 point.
