Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Holualoa Tucson Marathon Not bad. Not bad at all for a long run of 6.5 miles! I came in at 2:50:55, which was in the relative middle of my goal times (2:30-3:15 - love the margin). I could have hit my 2:45 goal had I not spent 9 minutes in line at a port-a-potty. Oh well. I'll try to get to filling out my race report tomorrow or so. Good effort for the first one. I managed to uphold my run/walk interval all the way to the end (other than aid stations). |

Champion 5345 Carlsbad, California | Subject: RE: Holualoa Tucson Marathon Great job out there everyone and thanks for setting up the FE on Saturday. I had an awesome race as did just about everyone I knew who ran it. My training partner took 1st place in his AG and a few others came in with very solid times. (My friend Dane ran a 2:52) I ran a 3:10:27 which qualifies me for Boston, 2010. (I qualified for 2009 last year in Tucson) This result moves me up a corral or two for both 2009 and 2010. I was 10th Place AG, and 60th Overall  Too bad they are changing the race next year. I probably won't be back if they move the course downtown but you never know. The date conflicts with IMAZ next year so I know next year is a pass. |

Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Holualoa Tucson Marathon Actually we've been told that IMAZ will be on the 22nd. However, if you were looking to both - then an absolute conflict. Something about wanting to do an expo with El Tour on Sat and the marathon on Sun. Yeah cuz I want to bike and run in the same weekend.... |

Yeah cuz I want to bike and run in the same weekend.... Well yeah .. if you're gonna do that you might as well swim too and just do IMAZ. That is what I do on Friday. |

| Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Holualoa Tucson Marathon Just received this a bit earlier - I just confirmed that El Tour is going to be held on November 21st, not the 14th, so it doesn’t sound like there will be a big fitness weekend. And El Tour will still be the same weekend as IM AZ. L

Also, I got an email about the marathon and they are making a final decision this week about the dates. But given the above info, I suspect the date will remain in Dec.

| Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Holualoa Tucson Marathon Holy cow! I read the ADS online everyday and didn't even see this. A bad year for events in Tucson. The cyclist from el Tour is still in a medically induced coma. I wonder what it was. Certainly wasn't heat that day, maybe it was the chilly weather and just pushing yourself harder because you don't feel as hot. |

Sometimes I don't read too carefully after a couple glasses of wine. It's still very sad and puzzling how someone so fit could just die like that. |
