As if one marathon was not enough, I registered for San Francisco Marathon scheduled for Jul 29, 2007. I was thinking of delaying the the registration a few days but Tier 1 is already sold out and I don’t want to miss out the option of running on Golden Gate Bridge, yet again. After all, San Francisco is #1 running city.
15,000 runners are expected . The first half is always the fun part and there are cheer stations and music stations planned almost each mile during the second half. I plan to start practice next month and I’ll definitely need to practice lots of hill runs. From my previous half marathon experience, miles 10-12 were really steep. The course description gives you an idea of all the beautiful landmarks (Fishermans’s Wharf, San Francisco Bay, Marina, Presidio, Golden Gate Park and many others) crossed during the run, well it’s 26.2 miles so gotta cover good part of the city 
And I found a buddy at work who has done multiple Boston Marathon and a PR of 2:28. This is going to be fun!
