UPCOMING RACES
5/26/08. MONDAY, our own MARIN MEMORIAL DAY RACES 10K/2.5M
If you are pointing to running well at the Dipsea, be sure to consider volunteering first, running second (see club site): get in a strong weekend of training and help work the race on that Monday.
I noticed a detour section through the section of the 10K that goes through the backside of the college when I was marking the course today. So be aware that it is narrow and windy for two turns....
6/1/08. DSE DIPSEA PRACTICE RACE 6.8M. 8am . $10.
Didn't get in the "real "Dipsea? Run this more low-key race with fewer runners and get yourself a good time and still the Dipsea race course.
START at Old Mill Park (Cascade & Throckmorton) in Mill Valley; run 6.8M over the famed Dipsea Trail to the finish at Stinson Beach. Point-to-point course, runners need to pre-arrange transport back to the start. Limited bus service available - see
http://www.marintransit.org/. $10 entry fee includes runner memento. Two aid stations. Register at
http://www.active.com/ or race day beginning at 7am.
