Anybody interested in this one?
Noley, I know you did the half last year, what about the full this year since you can't do Disney?

At least there's more than 2 turns at Disney, and things to look at besides the mirage of the Mirage. Seriously, LV is a mindf--k of a course at points because you don't appear to be going anywhere.

that's what I heard. I'm not a person that needs spectators....but the point to point of LV would kill me. People love Grandma's but I don't for that reason. When you can see runners 5 miles ahead of you it sux.
Disney was just not my cup of tea, I didn't like the highway stretches, the part that went thru the parks smelled like dung and the loudspeakers were too loud. I'm a cranky marathoner, I guess.
Perfection bigger marathon= Motorola (now Freescale) because it caters to all abilities and the spectators are fabulous!!!!!! On a smaller scale = California Int'l....if you don't need alot of spectators.
