Pub Crawl or Marathon? Or Both? Two Great Local Hybrids This Weekend

Now that Spring has nearly sprung, marathon season is back and I must say I wholeheartedly approve of the latest developments in this fine sport. It seems that many cities are combining both eating and drinking as an option OR a requirement.

Locally speaking, right here in The Shark's hometown of Dover, NH there is a 5K/Pub Crawl tomorrow morning. They are giving you ample opportunity to register right up until the event and you don't have to run the race at all. Thank you Dover Main Street for giving non-joggers like myself a marathon we can be excited about!

This Sunday morning, a little further up the coast, our sister station WBLM is putting on a grueling Half K pub crawl in honor of St. Paddy's Day. For those of you that aren't math majors, a half kilometer is a little less than a third of a mile, so I think you'll be able to manage the course with little effort.

As you can see, this has inspired me to 'run' right out and start the research and development phase of my own marathon. I'm thinking about calling it The Five Guys .05K Our motto will be... If you don't want to run the 3 hundrenths of a mile...that's Oh Five K with us! Now sit down and have a burger!
