Philly is a good one, mostly flat. Weather is a bit unpredictable though

I've done 3 on the list: Motorola was my first marathon---still rate as the best with Grandma's a close second. Disney? top 10????? must reap alot of votes just for destination because the marathon should not be in the top on it's own merits. the article says it isn't a Mickey Mouse walk......I disagree. I think Disney should become the first walking marathon!!!!

You should really consider either:
a) pushing that Marathon up to May
b) get used to a longer run with a half marathon in May

hint: you should be joining us for the MadCity Marathon and Half Marathon! It's going to be tons o' fub!

Madison, Wisconsin. I believe it is the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. I think we have around 20 or so of us going right now. We'll have more about it as time gets closer. Keep it in mind!

I'm with Mega, Twin Cities would be hard to beat.

I have also run Grandma's which was good.

I'm thinking about running a smaller marathon next fall. Maybe I'll even go back to Rapid City, to the Mount Rushmore International Marathon.

The site of my first, and fastest marathon.

A) you'll be able to meet some of the whack-o's

B) you'll score yourself the very first official Riff Raff t-shirt!
