Beer Runners Unite (state of Wisconsin)

I am really enjoying this January thaw - Too bad - It will come to an end soon.<br><br>
Mother Nature or if you prefer Old Man Winter - thank you for the reprieve, but I am ready - You may slow me down, but you will not stop me from running!<br><br>
Hmmmm, I feel a beastly winter storm brewing <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

Hey guys,<br>
Another Madisonian here. Say, anybody out running on the lakes or am I the only one? Its pretty sweet although picnic point area of Mendota is thin, thin, thin!

also anybody planning on the mc200 relay? I'm thinking about doing it but I'm not sure.

my hands were rrrreeeeaaalllly cold this morning when i was out.. and i only ran 4. sigh.

Oshkosh by Gosh!

Pardon me for intruding...I live in Nebraska. But my DH grew up in Kenosha. We had a lovely camping vacation in Door County in 2006. I really want to do that again and include a race the next time. The cold is awful, but you all have a beautiful state in August!

Racine Checking In! The winter has kicked my butt.

has anyone run the GB marathon (or has plans to)? i missed about 2 weeks of training d/t to this stupid flu and plus finances are a little tight.. and then i looked and saw the GB marathon is 2 weeks after the pig.. and right in my backyard! just wondering if anyone has any experience.. seems like a well-organized, flat course <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

I've run the full 3 times and the half once and the 4 miler which is now a 5k.<br>
Course is flat and fast (both my 1/2 PR and marathon PR), maybe a little boring, VERY organized. I won't run this year as it seems that I will be the support team/crew as everyone and their mother will run this year, the dh says I should "sit out". <img alt="huh.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/huh.gif">

I agree with the Foxy Lady.<br><br>
If you want a good PR course, well run, enough runners to have people to run with, but not so many it keeps you from running your race - Green Bay is your race.<br><br>
I may jog the 1/2 this year, just to drink all the free title town beer and eat free bratz <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

Our local pace coordinator is a little desparate for pace leaders, I am thinking about pacing a group for Fox Cities.<br><br>
Lapham peak - Do you have a link to an entry form? I have a friend around there I need to visit.<br><br>
