Marathon Weekend 2027

[Z-Knight]

I'm semi-almost-probably-definitely in for Dopey 2027. I got confirmation I'm on a charity list so once they get links I will have mine without worrying about registration. Not as much worry for 2027 but 2028 will be super hard so going with charity early to maximize my chance of getting in.

ok, now training starts so i can improve on what was a dumpster fire of a finish this year.

Give MCM another chance! I ran it this past October and it was a perfect day.

Oorah!

Agreed. I ran it in 2018 and it was an amazing experience.

We also ran it in 2018, and it was terrific! It’s still my marathon PR (and always will be, as I don’t expect to do any more fulls).

SAFD: My most memorable weather race was actually a 5k. The majority of the 5k is ran through a cavern. About an hour before the race, it poured down rain. The race was delayed a bit but by the time we started running, it was barely drizzling. That didn’t stop the other issue, however. Since it’s a low lying area and caves everywhere, the water had nowhere to go. Water started coming up out of the sewers!!! And we were literally running through it!!! I’m not talking a little. The streets were flooded with it. You could smell it! My husband, who walked it with my boys, has dubbed it “the sewer run”. No amount of disinfectant made us comfortable to wear our shoes again.

So, does shoveling snow for 3 hours count as strength training for my next race?!

That is why I stayed with the same charity for Dopey 2027 that I did this year. I figured staying in good graces with them would be beneficial in trying to get a bib for 2028.

Does anyone have a charity they love to run with? We had thought of securing a bib that way…. I’m familiar with a few of them but have no idea on pricing or how to get on a list this early.

Same. I’m doing Princess for a second time with a charity, and I’m on their priority list for MW next year. I got my dad on that list too since he wants to do the marathon to celebrate being 70.
