Marathoning on this day...  1996

I participated in the annual "Fat Ass 50" in North Adams, Massachusetts.  

This event consisted of many loops on the road, on a cold, gray day, and I believe there was a pretty bad snowstorm on the drive home.  

I have a time listed of  5:32:35, and I think that was for 26.2 miles - not 50k.  

This was my 8th marathon completed.

Farmington River Park for 4.3-miles.

PT at LED.

Northwest Park for 9.9-miles, including a diversion into the Farmington River Park in Bloomfield.

Drove to Visit my Mom, took a day-trip to sister's place for lunch, Pop included.

From the Marathon Archives:

And on ths day in 1997... 

I completed my 14th marathon on this day in 1997.  It was the Grupa Dupa held at the Talcott Mountain State Park, home of the Heublein Tower. 

I believe Tony W and Janice K were the organizers of this "Fat Ass 50" type event.  It consisted of loops up and around the tower, but I do not recall how many.  It was 50k, and I recorded a time of 5:11:13.
