Hi Gang!<br><br>
Since it looks like we have several people interested in this race, I thought I'd start a thread on it.<br><br>
The registration info is here and I know <b>Nettie</b> has done this one before, so she also has the inside scoop:<br><br><a href="http://www.madisonfestivals.com/marathon/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.madisonfestivals.com/marathon/index.html</a><br><br>
This used to be stomping grounds for <b>Sage</b> and me, so we can also answer general questions about the area if needed.<br><br>
I'm really psyched about it, Madison is a great town and really pretty to run in. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
Melis AKA Craney<br><br>
PS-- I just registered for the half. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> Oh, wait, should I have waited until after a glass of wine?

 

[mandaroo]

yep. just talked to Edric and we are down, down, down. we've got his bf and mat to cheer for us too!

 

[Nettie]

If anyone wants to do the relay, I would be interested in that.

 

[HighHeat]

<span style="font-size:xx-small;">would y'all need a race photographer?...</span>

 

[Nettie]

As if you even have to ask!!!!!

 

[McTortle]

I can't commit right now, but this one looks possible - maybe the relay for me?

 

[BigGahoona]

[Frankie71]

Uh oh, dont look now but the <span>Pfeiffer</span> <span style="color:#000000;">sisters are gonna be in Madison. Can you say Paarrrrrttttaaaayyyyy?! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/headbang.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="headbang"></span><br><br>
Hell I need to fly up there just to be a 30s supporter <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

 

[Nettie]

<b>Roo</b>, will you be doing the half or the full?

 

[winter]

may i just say that this completely sucks.<br><br>
the madison marathon is the same weekend as the Ottawa marathon and I can't....just can't justify driving 15 and a half hours, and paying god knows what to be with you all, when I can sleep in my beddybye and run for free here.<br>
Then again it makes for a better story if i say....yeah, i've never actually run the marathon in my own home town....

 

[Nettie]

<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Laughing"> Yeah, it would make for a better story <b>Winter</b>, but you are also planning on doing the Niagara marathon meet-up, so you won't be missing out on all the fun for the year.

 

[McTortle]

Of course, ya kinda gotta wonder what would happen if you and I were ever really in the same place. . .<br><br>
or since we happen to keep missing each other - what if you and I are actually the same person!?!?!?<br><br><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

 

[Frankie71]

Makes perfect sense to me <b>Winter</b> ( this coming from a guy who has yet to run a Half in his own state <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> )

 

[winter]

I think a vortex would open up and swallow all the beer in the universe....i'm thinking that could make one hell of a party.<br><br>
so it's a trend, is it?

 

[Brandy]

I would be interested in a relay spot. I am thinking of doing the Fargo HM the weekend before. If not, I could do the HM. No marathon though.....no likely them.

 

[BigGahoona]

Interest in the four person relay:<br>
BigG<br>
Nettie<br>
Mary Mct and possibly Mr McT<br>
Brandy<br>
Winter<br>
Anyone else?

 

[mandaroo]

the half!

 

[bard73]

I plan to run the half as well.

 

[KP]

This might just work. It might actually work. Might even be able to talk Tonya into running.<br><br>
Might just be in for the half. Maybe.
