It’s ZOOMA Annapolis Half Marathon week! Yup, it all goes down this Saturday. As I’ve mentioned, I’ll be crashing with Elizabeth, a native Annap…olean? Annapolite? A person who lives in Annapolis. She also gave me some insight on the course:
Looks like you’ll be running past the Naval Academy and St. John’s College, which both have nice campuses (St. John’s is weirdly reminiscent of Washington College with the brick walkways, etc.), and you’ll go past some government buildings like the Court of Appeals building and DNR. The Severn River Bridge is the bane of my existence when I try to bike over it (it’s rather steep), but the view is really nice. It also looks like you’ll be running past the start of the B&A trail, which is actually a really nice trail for walking/biking.
Not sure how I feel about that steep bridge, but it should be fun! I’ve bought sports drinks and race day snacks, I’ve planned my race outfit, and there’s an emergency KT Tape run in my future. Weather looks like it’ll be decent-to-good. I’m ready and raring! Dear Navy plebes: HIGH FIVE ME.
Fact: Anchors Aweigh is 175% better than On the Town. |
