I had emailed Steve the night before that I would be the caboose in the LLR and to let people know. I can't be there, this year, due to family commitments.<BR/><BR/>First thing is to consider bringing water with you for the last 4 miles. It's advertised as being fully serviced, but people inaccurately got word late in the course that I had dropped out. So, just in case it happens again, you'll be prepared.<BR/><BR/>Last thing is concerning a dangerous part of the course for a lone runner you may want to adjust your run to avoid.<BR/><BR/>At mile 15, the service road from Newcastle to Richmond is not too bad for a group of runners running twice as fast as you and I. But for 1 runner on that piece where the cars are always at your back and may not see you is clearly dangerous. The weeds and dirt are not smooth, so you can't run on it. And you're always looking behind you because the cars are coming your way. That was the worst part of the run, 2 years ago.<BR/><BR/>Last year, I emailed Steve I would be taking a detour and here it is. Instead of turning off Westpark to Newcastle, take Westpark all the way to the Loop. Walk under the Loop and cross the service roads that use to be Post Oak Blvd, south of Richmond. Head towards Richmond and you'll end up at the Best Buy at Post Oak & Richmond ready to head north and back on the marathon course.<BR/><BR/>Westpark is sidewalked all the way to the Loop on both sides. Really safe. Say 'howdy' to the panhandlers as you walk by. It's safe and effective...the FDA would love it. Whitney and 2 others joined me on this detour and it worked like a champ.<BR/><BR/>Elysian shouldn't be much of an issue because you'll be in the wake of the lead runners and those cars will be ready for you.<BR/><BR/>The LLR, in my opinion, SHOULD take this Westpark detour in order for the event to be ALL runner safe.<BR/><BR/>Have a safe run.<BR/><BR/><BR/>dougAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10005655.post-1166537593185442312006-12-19T08:13:00.000-06:002006-12-19T08:13:00.000-06:00you BETTER be better by Saturday!!!!i wonder if my...you BETTER be better by Saturday!!!!<BR/><BR/>i wonder if my hydrocodone would cure you like it did me ;o)<BR/><BR/>big hugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Junie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11007938828024900942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10005655.post-1166536772251917782006-12-19T07:59:00.000-06:002006-12-19T07:59:00.000-06:00Get well soon, we need you out there for the LLR. ...Get well soon, we need you out there for the LLR.

I only ran eight miles in five days, when it should have been 36 miles.
