This is great stuff for those looking to join the 50 States club. Also, Marathon Maniacs has a lot of folks doing this series. If you do a lot of Marathons, the Marathon Maniacs membership gets you enough discounts that the $12 or $15 annual fee pays itself off.

I must seem creepy! Am I right we both starting next year with the Toronto Indoor, Around the Bay and Mississauga Marathon?

Thanks Robin. I likely made an incorrect assumption somewhere in drawing my 100K conclusion. Biannual makes sense.

Anyone have the inside scoop on when the Niagara Marathon & 50K may fall next year? Thanks. pattern would suggest June 13 but it appears the 100K may split off.

I work in Mississauga. if there is Friday kit pickup as I expect, I will be happy to pick up kits for those who can't attend the expo.

And I signed up today. Wednesday is the last day for the cheapest entry rate.

Robinandamelia wrote:Yes it is!! someone stepped up to act as race director.

Terrific! I will be glad to return to this one.

Hi Folks, Does anyone know if this event is taking place in 2015? I was going to sign up and I do see that several familiar names are there. But I also see posted on the main webpage: We chose that the Run4RKids 2015 race will not go on, so we can focus on bringing in necessary funding for communiti...

Trail shoes can be great on the road if you are out ahead of the snow plows.

I've run the Toronto Marathon the last three years and will moving to Mississauga same day this spring. Yay, someone else to meet up with in Missy for an M&G on race weekend ... :) :dance: :dance: :dance: :shifty: You know I'll be there too :) I've run it 4 times and it keeps bringing me back! ...

I've run the Toronto Marathon the last three years and will moving to Mississauga same day this spring. I feel that the Toronto Marathon and Sporting Life 10K races that are a disaster waiting to happen. Not all their own doing - certainly the Mayor and his droogs giving preferential treatment to Ca...

...The other thing is that I ran a pretty controlled pace for the first 27K... This is key. I cringe whenever I hear or read that a marathon starts at 20 Miles. In fact the opposite is true in my opinion, your potential in that last 10K depends much more on how well you paced yourself for the first...

42.2K. Stage 7 (last of 3 runs) for me at ENDURrun. Hats of to all the ultimates who did 180K over the course of the week (7 stages in 8 days) including our own Dave (double bellybuster) and Tim (Timc) who both were way up in the standings. Big shout out to Ken B who came out second day in a row an...

Yes, thanks for the support, Ken! Glad you are signed up for the test distance next year!

Robinandamelia wrote:25K at EndurRun today. First run of 3 for me. Finally got to meet Dave! Great event...

Nice to meet you too Robin, you are as friendly in person as on this board!

You should consider a rested road marathon, Tim. I suspect it might bring a 12-20 minute PB.

Dave

Great reports Robin! I'll check out the photos - with limbs flailing everywhere when I run, I need to channel my inner Doonst for a good photo... Sorry about no report, Jon. At a high-level, I did OK on 5 of the 7 stages including a decent marathon to finish but got crushed on the two mountain stage...

Wow!

Will you be doing the Ultimate in 2015, Robin? I think it is at least 50/50 I register before the price increase tonight.

How are you all doing 3 days in? Pretty good here. Tim and I are seeing a lot of each other on course. Lots of separation in the pack yesterday, looks like avoiding a 25 minute bonk-related slide in stages 3, 5 or 7 is as important as going quick when you are able. I think I will be around Friday n...
