No, I need to rest and 2.45 miles would ruin my race.

Friday afternoon Halloween Run

Postby crispcrispcrisp on Tue Oct 28, 2008 9:06 pm

I must say...I am a little dissappointed that there is no gossip of a "fun run" I mean Friday is Halloween, and since NONE of you should be out celebrating that evening it would be fun to see folks get together and put on some costumes and run the Wrightsville Beach loop that afternoon!!!

2.45 miles of jogging in your favorite halloween attire. You have to go down for bike check in anyway...most of you are doing a light workout...maybe incorporate some fun.

Even IM Hawaii has their patented "Underwear Run" where competitors show up for a fun unofficial 5k ALL in their skivvies...apparantly the Germans started it and it REALLY caught on.

I am not saying go out and hammer, just loosen those legs up...just a thought...PS - I am not organizing, just instigating...

Hope everyone is rested up for a great weekend!!!

I would LOVE to host the fun run...however, I will be downtown at the battleship setting up T2. Sorry!! But the run is simple, park at the Wrightsville Beach Town Hall (where T1 is set up, and also where you will check your bike in).

And as you run out of the parking lot to the main road take a left on the sidewalk, stay on the side walk as it curves around at the traffic light, take a left at the second traffic light and stay on the side walk until you are back where you started...so there is only 1 turn (a Left hand turn From Lumina Ave. onto Salisbury St.) all the rest of the time you just make sure you are staying on the sidewalk as it loops you around.

Very flat and kind of peaceful as you are running downtown WB, and some of the surrounding marshes.

ENJOY!!!

And again sorry I can't take the lead on this one...I promise I would love to!!!

place: WB town hall

what: once around the loop to loosen up and maybe see some early trick or treaters.

I'll be there in my purple unitard. Can't wait. Maybe dinner and a beer afterward? BTW this may be a stretch for most people, but if you enjoy the lack of planning and proper preparation as do I you may want to join the critical mass ride at 6:00pm. It is always the last Friday of every month and has a couple hundred riders of all varieties and tomorrow we all get to dress up. Note: this is not a training ride, but a leisurely cruise. Here is the link if anyone is interested. http://www.myspace.com/cm_wilmington_nc
