Alameda Runners – Get After It!

Sunday is the big day for all of the women running the Nike marathon in San Francisco.  Good Luck.

For those of you not familiar with the Nike Marathon in SF, it is one of the big guys.  There will more than 20,000 participants this year.  The amateurs are just as fast as the elite professional runners and it can really confuse things at the end.  All of locals know what a special treat it is to be running or being a spectator at a big event in San Francisco.  Appreciate every step and every runner as it will be a great day.  Finishing any marathon is a great accomplishment.  You go girls!

Events like this one help bring out female runners that are willing to train and participate in an organized race in a very comfortable atmosphere.  Whatever gets people up and active is okay for us, especially first-time and new runners.
