Re: A special place in my heart

The half marathon and full course are only on the same course for a few miles before the full splits off and heads inland. I heard there are a few rollers on Palomar Airport Rd but besides that its a generally tame full marathon course.

Re: Can we talk about Vegas?

I'd like to organize one central meetup location for all of us. We're all mostly by Luxor and the other host hotels so in walking distance (not too far after the race!) is most desirable. I'd like to set it for a time that works for everyone, no matter when they finish the race. 4pm or sometime like that. I'd like to contact the venue and let them know how many of us to expect. Do we have a count for MCMers? Then see if the venue will cut any deals for our group. I'd like the place to be afforadable to begin with. Then I'd like to get an invitation together and invite more folks once we're set on this. Let's talk venue...

I also live in vegas, if there is something specific you're looking for, let me know, I can either get you some good places to check out or call ahead for a large group of people coming.

If any of you are up for it, the local chapter of the Hash House Harriers run on saturday evenings.

This $35 all-you-can-eat all day long champagne brunch at Luxor looks like a good place to start! http://www.luxor.com/dining/dining_more_buffet.aspx

Can we talk about Vegas?

Active Toby — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 23:20:05 GMT

First of all, I'm unbelievably excited to meet you all who you be running Vegas next month. We're only one month away now! I'm racing a 50K in San Fransisco on Saturday 12/5 and flying in to Vegas the night before the race so I'm hoping we can get a discussion going on where and when we'll be meeting up on Sunday after the race incase we get all mixed up and seperated on during the race itself. Do you guys have a place (resturant/bar) to suggest that is central to the host hotels where we can count on finding each other?

NYT Article: The Human Body Is Built for Distance

Active Toby — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:58:25 GMT

Awesome Times article I wanted to share. Follows on the heels of "Born to Run" and is http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/27/health/27well.html?_r=4&em

What kind of form drills or deliberate biomechanical tweaks do to take to make sure you're running "correctly" or naturally to avoid these injuries inherant to distance running?

Also, thought provocing video on persistance hunting by tribesman of the San on the Kalahari Desert of Africa. Enjoy!
