Forehead Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 The course map isn't up yet, but if this race doesn't end with you running into the end zone, then they did it wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Okay, sprinting into the endzone would be very, very cool. On the other hand, 10,000 runners might do a job on the new turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC9 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 thanks for posting. I figured this would be one of the more boring runs I've ever done, but glad that we'll be staying in the parking lot given how busy the roads can get in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corcaigh Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Very lame that there is no part of the course inside the stadium. For the cost it should offer a lot more than a loop of the parking lot. Other teams have the race finishing inside the stadium on the 50 yard line, or post race party there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC9 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Thanks SkinsNatsFan! I appreciate it. I was thinking about this again while mowing the lawn this afternoon, lol. I figured as much that it'd be a "day of" thing more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
