Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon I'll be there! This is my second 1/2 mary (I did Shamrock in VA Beach in March) and the first time that I'll be doing this one. I hear it's a lot of fun from the people I know that have done the race. I'm a little concerned about the heat. It's usually still pretty warm in September. Do people take their own water (fuel belt or something) or just depend on what's available on the course? |

Master 1551 Virginia Beach, VA | Subject: RE: Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon I usually take a water bottle that I can throw away because the first few water stops are very congested. Many, many more people than Shamrock. I think the water stops are pretty good; probably every 1 1/2 to 2 miles, a few local people out with a hose to cool the runners down; usually a gel/gu stop somewhere between 8 and 10 miles. The crowd support is great, lots of neighborhoods get together for the water stops; very entertaining. I'll be running slow because of an OLY race the week before and a 1/2 marathon (part of a HIM relay) the week after. I really plan on enjoying the race this year. |

Extreme Veteran 316 Nashville TN | Subject: RE: Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon man I made the mistake at the country music marathon this year and took some beer at my 24, I was sick to my stomach in five minutes. And after my tri a couple weeks ago thought I was bombed after only 1/2 glass of beer after the race...clearly I need more water and something solid b4 I switch to beer! but can't wait to end on the beach!!! |

The Original 7834 Raleigh/Durham | Subject: RE: Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon Yay! It looks like a good group of Bt'ers will be there! I didn't take my own fluids with me last year, but I probably will this year. It didn't get hot for me until the last few miles when I was running downtown (lots of concrete and buildings) and on the boardwalk- no shade. I usually don't run well in the heat, but did better that I thought I would at this race. From what I remember, it wasn't too humid which was good. |

I'm probably not too smart for doing both, but I've got family coming up for the RnR and I had a good time last year, so what the hell. |
