I suppose that carb loading can be done on Thanksgiving Day for this annual after-Thanksgiving marathon that runs you through downtown Seattle and…author’s note…I ran this marathon 10 years ago and I can recall running near Seward Park and by the Seattle Center and through downtown…and I remember the last 5 miles or so being fairly grueling and hilly but perhaps I’ve chosen to forget, so here’s a link to the course map:

Actually, it was nice to run a race where it wasn’t too hot out and I was fortunate that they day I did it wasn’t rainy, windy, or snowy — I wish you the same grey, mild weather:)
Of course, the day also includes a half marathon and a marathon walk.
