Atlanta Thanksgiving Half-Marathon

Race instead of turkey

"Guys, how are you going to celebrate Thanksgiving?"
"Are you going to celebrate somehow Thanksgiving?"
"Have you decided what you are going to do on Thanksgiving?"

It were "TOP3" questions our colleagues were asking last time. Two days before Thanksgiving, Dug, knowing about my attitude towards running, asked if I know about Atlanta Thanksgiving Half Marathon? "No", I said and opened Google. It was my answer on those  "TOP3" questions - I'm running!




And it begun...

  • Registration in the last day...
  • Expected time 1:35...
  • Searching possibilities to get there in time without paying additional 30$...
  • Morning discussion with drunk girl and her strange friend...
  • Fail and salvation with clothes...
  • Starting wave confusion...
  • Start, GO GO GO.......

Bucharest Half Marathon - It worth doing!

10/06/2013 Bucharest Marathon day, and I was happy participant.

A bit of statistics:

  • Marathon in Bucharest has been organizing since 2008
  • There were more than 2.5k participants this year (2013):
    • Marathon - 680.
    • Half-marathon - 1617.
    • Relay race - 364.

 

How it was.

Registration.

Each event starts from the registration. It's first part is online - basic information about yourself and payment (33 EUR). Second is the most interesting - Expo, getting your number, feeling this atmosphere.
