Marathon Maniac #957
Divechief has reminded me that the Harpeth Hills Flying Monkey Marathon (Nov. 21 in Nashville, TN) registration opens this Sunday at 8am Central time, and will likely close out within hours. I’m giving it a go this year. Any other takers from the Masters forum?
Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
Ever since stumbling across RA I've thought about doing the Monkey.
Nashville TN sure would make a nice destanation.

I admire people who train for a summer marathon....I think of just plain nuts as well....OK...Salted nuts.
Do you mean -- Who train for a marathon in the summer ? --
Cause I really don't think November is a summer month.
But anyway........this summer.....training sure sucks.....but I have clean pores !

Holly, not this year. After AF & Twin Cities, I'm staying relatively close to home that day and doing Phila.
Have a blast!

I admire people who train too, especially all the training for a marathon. It's just nuts.
holly - good luck.
If you can run the monkey all the way without stopping, you can run anything

aamos - didn't you promise if I joined Marathon Maniacs, you'd run an ultra sometime?
Lean Horse would be so perfect.

Good Bad & The Monkey
Running is stupid.
And yeah. Monkey closed in 9 hours 23 minutes last year.

Do not tary.
Ennay, did you not get my email? I send a, er, reminder email to all the prior year's finishers...
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Actually I remembered that I was supposed to get a reminder. I havent opened that email account since April but thanks to Holly I went and opened it and waited for the 7000+ (I am not exaggerating at all) emails to download just so I could find that one.
holly - good luck. If you can run the monkey all the way without stopping, you can run anything
Wait a minute...run it without stopping.......you mean I'm not allowed to walk?
hells yes you are.
