Yes, unfortunately that is a limitation of their system.

The key is getting in a long run with a race is to treat the race as part of your longer run!  Just, you know, put the race on the tail end of a longer warm-up so you don’t have to wait for beer.

Do it!  You should totally register for it.  It’s for a good cause and the race is nicely done.

One of my friends knows the race directors, too.  I agree, they did great.

It was a lot of fun!   I hope they do it again next year and that it works with my schedule.

Well, yeah, a marathon would certainly make your legs hate you!  I’m impressed you were able to drive at all!

I’m just so excited that in a city of however many millions of people I actually saw not one but TWO people I knew on my Saturday run!

The only other times I can remember it happening is close to the finish line at shorter distance races.  It was such a weird feeling!

I didn’t REALLY take a full shower.  Just rinsed the sweat off but no soap and no hair washing.

Interesting!  I did have my a water bottle with me while I was running but I guess I wasn’t drinking enough.  Something about water that is approximately the same temperature as the inside of your mouth isn’t all that appealing.
