TWRC 2018 Destination marathon - Banff Marathon Canada, June 17th 2018
Greetings Destination Marathoners
The committee has decided on the Spring, 2018 Marathon which will not be Eugene, Oregon because of the conflict with IM Texas – we will have to do that one later.
We have debated for a while and have settled on lovely Banff Canada – They have a Half and a Full (and a 10K) and Don Cole and Company has been nice enough to offer to be our host
Registration is now open (I just registered) – it sells out so if you are interested please register right away and let me know
Flights are cheap as well right now
