I am planning on trying to break 2:50 at the Philly Marathon on November 23rd. Hoping to meet other boomers!!!! Anyone else going to run Philly? Figured I would not have to train hard in the heat and only start my plan in early September when the weather is nice...I heard Philly is a fast course and of course a beautiful historical city.

Hey - sounds great. Philly is a great course and you can almost count on having cool, fast weather in November here. A lot of BQs and PRs every year. I've signed up to do Philly again... I think I was 2nd AG last year and 3rd previous year. It is growing larger, but I think they cap the number of runners. I'm planning on shooting for 2:40 but I may do Steamtown earlier in which case I may be doing this as a backup. Looking forward to seeing you in Philly! Ray
