Flying Pirate Half (OBX) anyone?
I am registered to run the Flying Pirate Half in (on?) Outer Banks on Apr 22!
Anyone else planning on running? Want to run? ?
I'm super excited! It will be the last half of our season! Planning on running for fun, taking pictures, just enjoying running somewhere totally new!
Can't wait!

LOL.. It's going to be a long 9 weeks!! I think every conversation may turn into
"OMG"
"OMG"
"OMG"
"wheeeeeeee"
"14 hours in the car together! What could possibly go wrong?!"
I better start making a packing list now!
I'm not running the spring race, but have ran the fall OBX half marathon twice & the full marathong once. Signing up for the full again this fall. It's a great race & lovely location. If it's the same course as the fall race, it is flat until you hit the bridge - one HUGE hill & that's it
Have fun!!!!
Pinkwillow ran the course as her first full as well!
It's going to be a blast!
Hmmm...I just looked at it. It looks fun.
But I will be traveling until the 20th of April--the thought of a one-two day turn around is a bit much for me
Yuck! WELL, if something changes, and you can make it, we'll be there!! We'll pick ya up on our way ;-)
haha. I'd be coming from Philly DOWN!
agreed. Once you leave the bridge, you think the end is right around the corner....it kind of drags on after the bridge. But the after-party in Manteo is great!
The flying pirate half is the first half of the obx course - so the last 5k is through the woods and last mile or so is up that steep hill. No bridge on that course.
I never would have gotten stingshark to agree to this half if it had been the second half of the fall full. Actually, I'm not sure I would want to do it either! I cringe every time I remember that portion of the race. Someday I'll be back to run the fall full again, someday...
