Four days to find out who runs this town....
Will it be me? Not likely. If the course is similar to the
previous year then there are some tight corners which mean you need to
slow down or run slower runners over. I am not racing this for a
PB - just for fun.
I think the people at Nike have done a fabulous job of marketing
running and getting people active. They have a promotional budget that
no other race (or many companies) have.
For those who are wanting to bring friends or family to the event. You
can buy ferry tickets at Nike Town or at the docks. The only bummer is
that the ferries to Centre Island are reserved for racers so your
entourage will have to take the ferry to Ward's Island and walk or take
a bus to meet you.
I did find the following out from the RUNTO.CA website...
* there will be 160 port-o-lets (for 10,000 runners) and 100 hand washing stations
* the race is at 2:45 PM and I am on the 10:30AM ferry (unlucky)
* there is a brunch from 10:00AM to 12:30PM
* party after the run (not me - I am heading to play ultimate)
Sounds like a fun day.... Now let's hope for sunshine!

You guys should checkout the shoes that came out from Nike with Ipod applications. Nike and Apple coming together is a perfect combination and if this can motivate a healthier lifestyle than more power to them.
