 "Most beautiful race course I've ever run" (about: 2003)
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 4 FANS: 2 This was my 21st marathon, and the prettiest race course I've ever run on. After being taken out to the start line by a Jeep, we met up with the other runners, and proceeded past majestic mountains, abundant wildlife, and even glaciers. The Salmon Runs consist of a marathon, half-marathon, 10K , 5K, and 1-mile 'fun run'. Probably a total of 150-200 people total for all of the races. Not bad for a town of only 3,000. The only way into town is by ferry or air. The last road into town collapsed in the 1964 earthquake. The townspeople were wonderful. We attended the Salmon Jam (salmon cookout and music) the night before, and had the post-race dinner at the Orca Adventure Lodge. Food, shirts, and medals were beautiful. If I ever decide to rerun a marathon, this will be it. |
