I wish they would start calling Sprint Tri's , Iron Man 1/8th A-thons and
Oly Tri's, Quarter Iron MansI would throw a bunch of those puppies on my bumper.
I like to run "Three-Quarters Marathons". I mean, the races are regular marathons, but that's how I run them.

Here in Pennsylvania we have a 6.66 mile race and its called Run Like Hell.
I'm so vegetarian I don't even eat animal crackers!
I know someone who'll be staying away from that race...

Why run like Hell when you can Run In Hell.

Actually, the Run Like Hell I did was a 6K. I just did it as a fun run since it was my first race back since my injury.
Do you mean Ghouls and Fools out in Reading?

We have one of those coming up in Chicago which I will not be doing. Any gimmick to get people to your race I guess. Why not a 2.62 mile race and call it a sprint marathon? I know... someone's already done it, right?
