Marathon Weekend
The Lincoln Marathon is less than two days away. Hopefully, in 48 hours, the entire LRC Racing team will be finished. The final roster calls for Amber Brandenburger and Neil Wolford to run the half marathon, and then Josh Mietz, Eric Noel, Mike Herz and myself to compete in the full. With the exception of Josh, this will be everybody’s first race at this distance. I think it would be safe to say that both Amber and Neil are fairly new to the half marathon distance as well. Unfortunately, Derek Sekora had to pull out of the marathon with an injury, but he will be out there on the course!
If you’re interested, this will be the first year that race organizers set-up an “athlete tracking” system. You can go to http://www.mtectracking.com/Mtrack?raceid=21 to track all athletes (and especially the LRC Runners). So, send out the link to anyone you want tracking you!
Needless to say, I think every single one of us is ready to run this weekend and to represent the LRC Racing team. Let’s hope for the beautiful weather that they are predicting and keep an eye out for an entry next week detailing how the race unfolded for all of our runners!
