Superstar Alan Webb goes for the mile record at the New Balance Games at the Armory in upper Manhattan. Frontierland, Tomorrowland, Adventureland…Fantasyland. All part of the Magic Kingdom that you may experience at the Disney World Marathon. Where hard work lets dreams come true. Back to the Armory for the Women’s Mile, an eight lap showdown between Olympic hopefuls Sara Hall of California and Carmen Douma-Hussar of Canada. In the United States Half Marathon Championship in Houston, a new American record with an extraordinary performance by Ryan Hall. And thousands of first timers take on the accompanying 26.2 mile distance to become “marathoners.” Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe..the Valley of the Sun. P.F. Chang’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Arizona keeps thousands moving briskly through the Grand Canyon State. “Great Moment in Racing”. 1982. Dick Beardsley and Alberto Salazar duel for 26 miles in the 86th running of the Boston Marathon but only one would wear the laurel wreath. The largest race on the African continent is a festive celebration in a country where running is a way of life. The Great Ethiopian Run in Addis Ababa is extraordinary in every respect. Staten island. The ING New York City Marathon. Race day. The Avis wheelchair competitors take off on their five borough journey. With an adventure around every turn. None dare call it work. The “Sweat in the City” feature for this month tracks some of the hot spots where metro area athletes maintain that off-season edge that comes in very handy come summertime.
