I hadn't heard of that race until you posted this. Looks great. Funny thing about the SF Marathon/Half in July is that so many people come here to run across the GG Bridge, but it's quite likely on a July morning that there will be heavy fog on the bridge that early in the morning. Sometimes we get offshore winds (east to west) that give us clear weather in the summer, but am fog is the norm. Your race in November is more likely to have clear weather on the bridge. Best of luck.

A few years ago I ran the Zombie Half-Marathon in SFO in February and the weather was perfect! In April I am headed to Kiev to run a half-marathon. Doubtful the weather will be as nice!

Marathons attract all shapes and sizes - and they move at all paces.

It really is something!

10 days to London...
