Baltimore relay team marathon

Here we are before the race with our fabulous Team Harman capes: I started with the marathon runners by doing the first leg, which ended up being just under 6 miles. Like what you see? Share me with your friends! Relays are great because FULL marathons suck! By any chance did you get to see Sid Busch? The stratification of risk is as follows for runners in shoes, shorts, and a shirt: Here are the ACSM recommendations;.

Should the race be cancelled or altered after the official start due to a heat emergency, runners are to slow their pace to a walk and proceed to the staging area with caution. Hydration stations will be available along the course, as well as medical personnel. Additional fluids may be available; but it should not be assumed that fluid availability would be limitless, due to logistical constraints. Severe Weather: Cancellation is strongly advised when severe thunderstorms with the threat of lightning threatens the course and are forecasted to continue throughout the time frame of the event.

Alteration of the course or race length may be implemented to ensure a safer race environment. Corrigan Sports asserts that each runner assumes a personal responsibility when entering a running event and accepts the potential risks. Corrigan Sports encourages all runners to take all precautions and cooperate with directives given during the race by event personnel.

Corrigan Sports will not knowingly place the participants in danger and burden the medical support community. Unfortunately, almost all race related expenses will have been incurred prior to the actual race. Should the race be forced to cancel, the financial impact on the race would not be any different than if the race was held in its entirety.

Thus, refunding of entry fees would devastate the financial future of the race. It is our plan to host live events in under the guideline and precautions of local and state governments and do everything we can to make these events as safe for everyone.

So overall, it was good time, and the city deserves credit for pulling it off.

With 11, half marathoners but only 2,, full runners, this is great for those who like big races, but for the first half especially, it's not too crowded on the course. Low-key hilly course about: Course: 3 Organization: 4 Fans: 2 A. You start without all the checks to getting to the line and jostling to get into your stride. Pretty great.

This meant that there were long stretches where there was plenty of space to run. I have a greater appreciation for Baltimore. Finishing at the Inner Harbor was a nice touch. This alone gives the race a gold star. While the race was short on volunteers, organizers and signs out there telling where runners needed to go, police officers were there to direct traffic and runners as well as high fives and encouragement.

They stayed on track and gave good advice during the run. If I could have hung with them after mile 19, I would have made that goal. Thanks, Dogfish Head!

Cons -Not enough water stops. I got in my head that the hills would end, but I was very wrong. Reading from past reviews, it seems that the organizers worked hard to make the merging better.

But it is hard mentally to be at mile 21 and see a half-marathoner or relay runner just smoke you. Who was out was great. There was no information on where baggage check was, no signs at the start. I found out where it was by word of mouth. Advise against running this marathon. It climbs from mile 18 for about five miles. Hill exercise is a must to prepare for this marathon.

The problem with this marathon is that they merge the full marathon with the half marathon at mile When you are beginning to get tired, but you are supposed to get into a rhythm to power through to the finish line, you come smack against a herd of half marathoners. I had to weave in and out trying to get past slower runners and walkers, sometimes running 3 or 4 abreast.

I nearly got knocked over twice, by a half marathoner having a good time, laughing, talking and weaving in and out of the herd. If you run slower than 3 hour marathon, you are pretty much an afterthought.

Needless to say, the water stations were nothing but chaotic. They were overwhelmed by the sheer number and I saw runners lining up while water was hastily poured into cups. I didn't see energy gels being held out, but I saw plenty of protein bars and pretzels. I had to go grab gels from the tables. I'd never run this again and I'd advise anyone considering it not to do it. Even the early miles through Druid Hill Park feel like running through a city park.

I liked this a lot. Con: Baltimore wouldn't ever be described as a 'pretty' city. It's a gritty city. Of course, I would describe most photos of me during a race as gritty rather than pretty. So I have no room to talk. Significant hill training advised. The hills for the first few miles aren't so bad because of early adrenaline. But the hills between miles 15 and Despite the course description generously describing the last 5 miles as 'mostly downhill' well, yes And the 25th mile is graded mostly uphill.
