We'll be using gels.

Re: boomer hartford marathon/half thread

i'm thinking about doing the 5K, but need to work out logistics-my main job is supporting DW in her first 1/2M, so I'll be on the course somewhere and will certainly try to meet up for the Boomer gathering...

let me know the specifics when they are known

Don't be silly. It's an October marathon. I'll be using candy corn.

Re: boomer hartford marathon/half thread

Although some would say I should be in the DL thread, as I just got home from yet

another

infusion, but apparently there is still restriction on my running. So I should be there!!!

Sounds like folks are planning to be there much of the week-end. Why are we going to brunch on Sunday or something?

PDR - I am right there with you on the candy corn.

Hi Hally!!!

La T,

Hartford usually consists of dinner Friday night, race on Saturday, and brunch after the race at 1 or so.

That's nice, but until Hally confirms that she is handing out candy corn from the aid station I am not sure that I can commit.

Re: boomer hartford marathon/half thread

Can't miss another fabulous Hartford Boomer party. I'll be running the half, sort of, of my recovering hip. Will help Hally at the aid station afterwards. Get in Friday PM and go home Saturday PM.

Re: boomer hartford marathon/half thread

Thanks Hartford runners (and mcsolar in particular for starting this thread) for organizing your Boomer gathering for this great weekend.

I am sure each one will enjoy the race and the time together.

Joey

Re: boomer hartford marathon/half thread

Well that's a fine mess - I just went on line to register and the hartford marathon website is down.

I called in and they replied that they were wondering why they were having trouble getting their numbers, thanked me for letting them know, but would not register me by phone.

I guess that I will try again later ...

edited to add that I am now official!!!
