The Next Marathon

I'm going down under to race. I'm scheduled to speak at a technical meeting being held in the Barossa Valley of Australia, so I thought, "hey, why not run a marathon on another continent?" Silly, silly geeky big man.

Anyway, since I wasn't a lottery pick to run the 2008 St. George marathon, I'm running the Melbourne Marathon on October 12, 2008. I'll be wearing number 443. I wonder if they will have mile markers or only those kilometer things? 42.195 km just sounds much longer than 26.2 miles.
