Subject: texas marathon

I don't know how much ink this has gotten so far (I first heard of it today), but it looks like there's a 2nd Dallas Marathon. It's called Texas Marathon. Its first running is scheduled for 3/28/04 (a sunday). It is to begin and end @ Fair Park (at least parking shouldn't be a problem). Run-On is one of the sponsors - so it might not be a total disaster.

Per their website (www.texasmarathon.com), they plan on "paying" volunteers with donations to your favorite charity and there is supposed to be a comppetition among the aid stations (only 13 of them) for most imaginative/entertaining/"distracting" - with prize money.

Sounds interesting (if only that it's another spring race and a month after Austin/Cowtown and a month before OKC). The marathon course isn't set yet, but they DON'T plan to circle White Rock Lake (runnin' outside the box, here). They say they're seeding the first 250 entrants up front (regardless of projected times), so if you always wanted a low number ........

Haven't made any marathon plans yet, myself, but I guess this one gets added to the mix.
