Courses!

I totally geeked out today and drove the Run the Rock courses with all of my sexy electronic gadgets.
As a result, I was able to put together some nice route maps for you all.

Marathon
The marathon starts in town @ Fisheries Research Center on Near Island and follows Rezanof. Turn right onto Anton Larsen road and keep running until the turn around at the far end of the road.
Ends at Golf Course Pro Shop.

The half marathon is an out and back that starts and ends at the Golf Course Pro Shop. The turn around is approximately at the head of Anton Larsen Bay.

5K
Finally, the 5K! This race is also an out and back starting at the Golf Pro Shop, but rather than going towards Anton Larsen, this route heads back towards the main highway.

Beginners Running Guide

In my daily snooping for running, health and endurance knowledge around the series of tubes (you're welcome Jay), I found this great article from Men's Health Magazine on 101 tips for a new runner.
Take a look!

P.S. A number of folks have requested maps and elevation for the various Run the Rock routes. We are working on it. Thank you for being patient.
