kinda fitting actually.
chances for me collapsing at the starting line are a pretty high % bet.

Sorry, I don't even know the difference of a marathon and a 13K. :blush:

And the after party is $35, so you could spend $90 total............


.......to run.



And if that's your thing (yes, I know it is yours) then that's fine. I'm not knocking it, just not sure I'd spend the money for that kind of event. I had no idea that was usual for such events (or any kind of event for that matter- I'm cheep:rolleyes: ) With staffing, emergancy workers, security, permits and stuff it does cost to operate these.

Sorry, didn't mean to come off so :evil: .........

I hope you find someone to go, and you have a good time. Maybe we will get another Run Steph, Run! thread going! :D

A marathon is about 40k (26 miles). A 13k is about 8 miles.

I'm not a fan of ToT (drop rides offer exactly zero thrill) so lots of rides on that doesn't appeal. But I do like Rockin' Roller Coaster as much as I ever like roller coasters.

They better not oversell though because one of the worst things to do after a long run is spend a lot of time standing still.

With a good group of people pairing this one one night with Not So Scary could be a pretty fun weekend.

That's what I'm thinking!

Oh and RStar, your race registration includes the after party. The extra tickets are if you want to go to the party without running. :)

Registration is now open, and I have signed up! :D

I'm thinking about walking it.

Alex 04-17-2007 02:05 PM

Looks like I'll be there after all.

Matterhorn Fan 04-17-2007 03:13 PM

OK, I'm in. I'd better not regret this.

Now, I'm not math expert, but last I checked, 65 + 4.72 did not equal 69.73. Odd, no?

I could do it. I'd just have to go back in time.
