Guided Tour of the Missoula Marathon Course
Are you one of those people who like to be completely familiar with the course? Are you the kind of person who does not believe in relying on the line of people in front of you and the knowledge that, no matter what, it’s 26.2 miles to the finish so what does it matter? Are you one of those people who are winning so you MUST know the course? Well, then you might want to take the bus tour.
First of all, please know that this is the MARATHON course, beginning in Frenchtown. However, if you are running the HALF Marathon, you will see about 10 ½ miles of your course, too, you just won’t see the beginning 2.6 miles, where it’s impossible to get lost anyway.
Your Tour Guide is Course Director Courtney Babcock, who does know every bump. She’s a professional runner, so there is no question you can ask about the course that she won’t know, because she’s thought about it all. In spite of the fact that your guide is a professional runner (In the 2004 Olympics, no less, and going for 2008) the cost is only $5, which is probably a mistake since fuel prices have tripled since we established that price and now breaking even is not a remote possibility. Cheap gas AND listening to an Olympian for just $5 – what a deal!
It is first come first served. Some of you have already registered on-line. The rest of you can pay at the bus as you board.
The bus leaves at noon, Saturday, July 12th, from the Parking Garage located on Main St. between Higgins Ave. and Ryman. It’s notated on the Finish Area map; the map is on the website. (The parking garage is the same place where the bus shuttle will be leaving on Sunday morning.) Bring your fan because it’s a school bus and we don’t air condition our school buses in Montana. It’s not humid enough. Just hot.
Thank you for running the Missoula Marathon and Half Marathon!
