Alright, the Chambersburg Half is on March 15th. I saw where it was already mapped out on USATF - www.usatf.org/routes/view.asp?rID=95162The elevation profile seems to be working today. Take a look - it is a nasty course, with two very tough climbs at around 3 and 10 miles.

I've run it before, in 2006 I think. It's rolling hills - nothing worse than what you guys already run in Frostburg. But the year I ran it, the wind was a killer. There was one part where it just seemed to knock you off course.Still, probably will do it this year...
Early-entry deadline is March 1 - $20 with no t-shirt. Google Chambersburg half-marathon and you'lll find it. For fast people: usually draws a pretty good field. Email Wayne Kretzer (from the Chambersburg club website) for who's entered this year.

Race website is: www.chambersburgrrc.org and Wayne's contact info is: coachwk86@aol.com or 301-739-1366. Winning time in '07 was 1:14:14.6. In '06, it was Frostburg's own Mr. Hawkins in 1:12:34. In '05, it was a Chambersburg guy in 1:11:28. Pretty good times... I did it in '06 (1:44:42) but at that time was running through a pretty sore knee and coming off a life-changing experience after taking certain medication for a short time (which caused blinding headaches and once I passed out at work in Hagerstown)... Not altogether my best running period...
