Last year, Corktown was my first time running... ever (honestly). I started training 6 weeks prior using a couch to 5k program. I know that it is slow by most people's standards, but I was very happy with my time of 30:48. This race is what kick started me into believing that I could do more. |

New user 19 | Subject: RE: St. Patrick's Parade Corktown 5k : Official Thread I've been thinkig about this one. I've never been to the Corktown ares. What's it's like safety wise? Do you register in advance then pick up your packet from one of the stores, or do you register and pick up all in one? Thanks! |

What's it's like safety wise? Do you register in advance then pick up your packet from one of the stores, or do you register and pick up all in one? Thanks! It is safe on this day because there are thousands of people down there for both the run and the St. Patricks Day parade that follows. I wouldn't recommend going down that way on any other day though (coming from the girl who's car was stolen while she was eating at Slow's BBQ). I'd register in advance for two reasons...you are guaranteed a shirt and because there is always a HUGE HUGE line on race day to get your packet at the starting line. Avoid that mess if you can.

There will be lots of Fraser folks out running this one too. Last year the Hounds had a tent...any one know if they'll be there again this year? I wanna see Travelmonkey in his kilt doing a jig again! Edited by TrishM 2011-03-03 9:03 PM |

Right now, I dont think we will have a tent. To be honest, I dont know how many GRACING GREYHOUNDS will be out there this year. I am sure there will be a few, but probably not like last year. I am on the fence about running this year, for whatever reason 3/13 is a popular day this year. Edited by lilbigjon 2011-03-04 6:53 AM |
