    Since there are quite a few Maniacs in RA now I thought it might be good to form a group. It's not intended to replace the official Maniac Board. The first question is: Should this forum be private for Maniac members, or public restricted where nonmembers can read but not post, or public? I'm leaning toward unless you're a member. For now it's public. What do you think? Maniac 191

        *waves hi* #734 here

        Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson

          Curious - what's the difference between this and the Marathon Madness Mob?

          Roads were made for journeys...

            No, this is different. Marathon Maniacs are members of a national club called the Marathon Maniacs. Membership in the club requires that you run lots of marathons close together. Check it out: http://marathonmaniacs.com/ and: http://marathonmaniacs.com/criteria.html Big grin (is there an echo in here?)

                  Hey, I think this is a great idea! Thanks, PerfesserR! I'm #685, the only registered maniac in Alaska! Just did the Christmas Marathon in Olympia, next up is Carlsbad in CA to give me 6 in 6 months (yeah, silver level, finally!)

                                It really doesn't matter to me, but we already have our private forum on the maniac web site. how many private forums do we need? Food for thought, Dave (#505)
