2007 Halloween Hills of Horror Half Marathon

10/24/2007 The joys of a small town half… I decided last Sunday to do the Hanover Hills of Horror Half Marathon (13.1 mile run) in Codorus State Park, Hanover PA…. which is a few miles South/West of York.. I am sure the appeal had something to do with the Hills of Horror theme…. So I drive the 2 hours to Hanover to tackle the “Hills of Horror”… According to the online map, the elevation changes for this course gave a small indication that I may need to carry an oxygen pack… although an oxygen pack was not needed I did need to tote around my new hydration fuel belt with bottles…see my previous water/fuel pack belt did not hold enough water/gateraid for longer runs and so I invested in a much larger water/fuel belt that would hold two 22 ounce water bottles…. Joe to Wendy, “Isn’t that a little big for you????” …I velcro the belt on.. hmm. …. It is a bit large.. hmmm… it is a bit heavy… hmmmmm.. so I take a spin around to test it out… donk.. donk… donk… stop adjust spin.. spin… spin… adj...
