Extreme Veteran 446 Mason | Subject: RE: Detroit Free Press/Flagstar Bank Marathon : Official Thread I plan to stay downtown somewhere. I'm going to try to split a room with 1 or more runners. This is my first week of a 13 week training program that supposedly will have me ready to run my first full marathon. I'm excited to say the least. I still have the Legend 10 mile trail run and Dances with Dirt in Hell coming up along with a probable Oly length Lansing Legislator Tri, but the marathon is what I have my sights on. |

If you are staying in the core, I think its easier to walk than driving that morning. If she not using it I can give you my parking pass. |

I don't have a hotel reservation yet, and I do plan to walk to the start if I stay right downtown, but I don't think any of the hotels downtown include parking. If someone has a pass they aren't using it'd be helpful... |

If you want company, I am probably going to be there to cheer on TrishM, who is doing her first HM also, and everyone else. |

Regardless I will be there for one or the other. I just started my "official" training last night with a very slow 4 mile run in new shoes which I decided were too small about 2.3 miles into the run. You've gotta be in better shape than I am. I hope you decide to do the full. Maybe you can help coax along slow people like me! Edited by spartn1 2009-07-22 7:29 AM |
