One more thing: this is the map. A lot of turns!



Saw the post from the official first place finisher and she's handled the situation really well.

Today is a good day!

Woke up to temps above freezing, sun is out, ice is gone, had a great tempo run AND it’s registration day for TC 10 mile.

Glad you sorted the weather for me before I got home tonight

And I think you mean it’s Loony Registration Day

No Loony here, running a marathon 2 weeks later!

I sometimes miss turns on my easy runs around town. No way that I could memorize this many turns in a race setting. It’s crazy to think that’s the expectation.

Which marathon?

For those of you doing TC runs, are you also doing wine and dine? I had originally planned on registering for (maybe) Loony, or maybe one of the 5k/10k, and then the 10 miler, but im a bit worried about how close it is to wine and dine, especially considering how sore I was/am after doing all the races this past weekend.

I have done it in the past, but that was when W&D was the first weekend in November, so there was a bigger buffer.

I think if you treat TC as a goal race and W&D as a fun run, you should be alright.
