]]> Comment on How do you Refuel After a Race? by Omaha Ford http://omahamarathon.com/how-do-you-refuel-after-a-race#comment-90 Omaha Ford Fri, 09 Dec 2011 05:43:03 +0000 http://omahamarathon.com/?p=678#comment-90 Interesting, the way that I refuel is by drinking Zico coconut water or water that comes with electrolytes. I drink it before the race, during and after since I find that drinking it just after is not enough. Zico has a lot of potassium too; as much as a full banana. I also like to eat beforehand since I get nauseous if I don't. Interesting, the way that I refuel is by drinking Zico coconut water or water that comes with electrolytes.

I was able to ride the course a week or so ago but if I couldn't have I would have loved this. A great way to familiarize yourself with the course before you get there.

]]> Comment on Omaha Marathon Rated One of Seven Best Marathons for First Timers! by John Ward http://omahamarathon.com/omaha-marathon-rated-one-of-seven-best-marathons-for-first-timers#comment-80 John Ward Fri, 09 Sep 2011 21:28:06 +0000 http://omahamarathon.com/?p=522#comment-80 The Omaha Marathon is a great first time marathon and half! I ran my personal record in the half and my best friend ran his PR for the full there. I have ran 20 marathons and 7 half marathons. It is true that some marathon and half marathon participants may get aggravated with walkers. Most walkers/slower runners are new to the experience or simply started before the primary wave of runners to ensure they meet the course cut off time. It's important that all participants recognize their pace ability and start in the proper corral when possible. If a walker or slow runner must start in front of the main wave it is generally helpful and polite to stay to one side of the course and avoid walking/running several abreast in a group. After all...26.2 miles is a long ways and an extra .5 running around road blocks is never fun. A little courtesy goes a long way! --John Ward, Marathon Maniac #2638**** The Omaha Marathon is a great first time marathon and half!

I've never seen so many rude drivers, rolling through red lights in my life. However, the weather, sights and some of the extras may make this a worthwhile event. If I get the regular Nebraska jackass being rude to me, they will get it right back. If the locals run the way they drive, this event will be a nightmare.
