    Colder and yummier I found, was the beer, handed out at some of the home-made aid stations. I took a cup at ~mile 25 when I was in FTS mode, and it was the most delicious thing ever.

     

    I will be looking this aid station!!

      You will not miss it trust me.

       

      You will have the look of rigor mortis in the face and the guy at the stand will say in a matter of fact voice, "That guy needs a beer."

       

      At the exact time that you finish it, you will be hard pressed to name a single better moment than that in your life. lol


      You Rang?

        Won't you consider running Surf City marathon and LA marathon back to back next February? 

        I'm currently signed up for the Surf City Half.  Registration for LA opened yesterday.  Back to back weekend marathons sounds crazy.

                He said no Surf City next year.  LAM I want to do again, but it has no HM so I would have to work really hard at convincing.

                      Oh, I meant convincing him to come and not run anything.  Not convincing him to run it.  That would be impossible.

                              Cramps suck!  Sorry things did not go as planned, but glad you were able to finish on your own two feet and did not have to be carried in.

                                LA Marathon has a two person relay option if you raise money for charity.   Talk someone into doing it with you and just run the second half!
