Random Thursday Notes / Thoughts
2.) Nice online coverage from the Dallas Morning News concerning the upcoming White Rock Marathon on Sunday. Especially this section titled, "How To Become A Rock Star".
3.) Sunmart (Saturday) -- 52 degrees high, 45 degrees low. 10% chance of precipitation. Mostly cloudy. Highs in the low 50s and lows in the mid 40s.
3a.) Methodist Sugar Land Hospital 30K (Sunday) -- 70 and 58. 40% chance of rain. Showers. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the upper 50s.
3b.) Jingle Bell Run 5 Miler (Sunday) -- 70 and 59. 40% chance of rain. Chance of showers. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the upper 50s.
3c.) Dallas White Rock Marathon (Sunday) -- 62 and 55. 30% chance of rain. Occasional showers possible. Highs in the low 60s and lows in the mid 50s.
4.) One report about the Fiesta Marathon last Sunday in the Valley: "Hidalgo was a boring out and back race. The first aid station was at 3.5 miles and they only had water on the course. It's a good thing that the weather was cool and cloudy."
5.) Can't wait to see how The Woodlands' Michael Kove (and RRCA-certified coach) does on Sunday in the Las Vegas International Marathon. It will be his first one. At age 68.
6.) Big marathon weekend around the USA. 8 marathons.
7.) Top Masters female at the St. Jude Memphis Marathon last Saturday? 45-year-old Russian Alevtina Naumova in 2:43:59. Does the name sound familiar? She was the overall female winner of the 1994 Houston Marathon.
7a.) Same race. 3 places later? 2001 overall winner of the Houston Marathon, Christopher Ciamarra, who has now relocated to Alpharetta, Georgia, was 22nd overall finishing in 2:46:26.
