Imminent Catastrophe
This will replace the Thanksgiving Day Marathon and have a new route and 6:30 cutoff.
"Able to function despite imminent catastrophe"
"To obtain the air that angels breathe you must come to Tahoe"--Mark Twain
"The most common question from potential entrants is 'I do not know if I can do this' to which I usually answer, 'that's the whole point'.--Paul Charteris, Tarawera Ultramarathon RD.

Two thoughts...
1. Thanksgiving is what made it special
2. I liked the 5 hour cut off. It was unique.
Life is Good
I agree with purple ash, but I do like the relay added to the Marathon
Run 1000 miles
bike 500 miles
finish a half Ironman triathlon
Warrior dash 2012
Chickamauga battlefield half 2012
and a few small races in between
Consistently Slow

Getting volunteers seems to have been the issue. My sister and I have volunteered the past 8 of 10 years. We would do chip return and would get to leave around 10:30.6:00 - 1:00 on a holiday is a bit much.
Run until the trail runs out.

The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff
