Silver Comet Marathon 2016

It seems Budget is outfitting the local sheriff’s office.

The shirt (a hoodie), bib, and medal.

Some of the beauty of the Comet

Had a blister issue dogging me from 12 miles in. Finally doctored it up at 17. Shades of Curt Shilling, but with out being a nutjob.

The Silver Comet is a rails to trail conversion that runs 60 something miles from Smyrna to the Alabama border.

The Weather Channel, so seems to be covering marathons now, was there.

Running, a good hobby for old and young.

Nice capes boys, but you should see the work Colleen Mulholland does.

The trail in the mid-morning, very peaceful. All the beauty started to get monotonous though.

Action shot of Loren Starr, all the closer ones were too blurry as he sped by.

Rails to trail is for the bridge and tunnel crowd.

Mableton’s Park and Ride is much nicer than the ones in Miami it would seem.

The Silver Comet Marathon in Mableton, Georgia. My 25th state for the second time through the states. Another rough day with no one to blame but myself. Anyway, here’s some pictures and a fun fact. Fun fact: Atlanta is on the Eastern continental divide. East of the divide waters flow into the Atlantic Ocean, west they flow into the Mississippi River or the Gulf of Mexico.
