LOCO Half & Full Marathon
This year, all pre-registered participants in the Half and in the Full will receive a long sleeve technical wicking shirt at number pickup.
Spectacularly beautiful (and fast) course
The LOCO half and full Marathon is a spectacular 13.1 mile loop course run completely on tree-lined rural roads. It travels through four local coastal towns: Newmarket, Lee, Epping and Newfields New Hampshire.
Not only is a scenic course, it is designed to be fast and easy. Half marathoners run one loop. Marathoners run a second loop. For the past two years over 32% on average of marathoners qualified for the Boston Marathon.
IDEAL WEATHER: The third weekend in October in New Hampshire is ideal for marathons. The average temperature is 57 degrees and the highest temperature recorded is 76. With an 8:00 AM start, most runners will be running in temperatures in the mid 40's to low 50's on an average day.
IDEAL DATE: The third weekend in October is a perfect date as it allows enough time in the fall for your race specific long runs AND enough time to run a competitive long race like a half marathon to test your fitness.
GREAT POST-RACE CELEBRATION: The LOCO Half and Full Marathon will start and finish at the Rockingham Ballroom. This classic ballroom is sited besides a landscaped golf course. Catered delicious soup from The Old Salt and cold craft beer from Henniker Brewing Company are available to registered runners.. Friends & Family may partake in the these items for a nominal fee.
IDEAL RACE SIZE: The race will be capped at 1,000 runners total in the full and half. This is the ideal race size to be large enough to find a running partner to qualify with, but not too large that you have to zig zag on the course to get around runners who started in the wrong place in the start corral, or stop in front of you at water stops.
Time Limits: Marathon
- Age 16 – 59: 5:00 Time Limit
- Age 60 and above: 5:00 Time Limit
- Notice: you must come through the half way point by 2:30.
Here's the slide show from the 2016 race:

text: Video: Two Off at the Nurburgring is a Bad Thing. Share Comments F1 Racing legend Jackie Stewart once called the Nürburgring, "Green Hell" due to its extreme difficulty and beautiful scenery. The track has lived up to this nickname with over 70 fatalities occurring on-track and countless accidents during race events and open track days, many of which can be seen on YouTube. Yesterday while perusing our normal sites, we stumbled upon one particular off that can best be described as catastrophic. In the video, a fifth-generation GTI careens off track in the "Foxhole" as a result of the car entering the corner wide and its driver lifting off the throttle, causing the back end to step out and pitch the car to the right. Luckily for the driver, he was up and about after the incident. It's safe to say the while the GTI is a total loss, the Volkswagen saved this man's life. Thanks to Bridge to Gantry for the tip.

Compressor bad on 9 year old Carrier??
My AC was not cooling the house and periodically making a squealing sound. I have been told my compressor is bad on my 9 yr. old carrier AC unit. Got a quote to replace the compressor and a quote to replace the unit. There's only a few hundred dollars difference between the two. Does this sound correct? Is it possible to replace the compressor on my own? Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.
only if you have a recovery machine,recovery tank,vacume pump. micron gage, scale, freon, torch kit, and your EPA certification. why the price is close is the labor to replace a compressor is longer than replaceing the outdoor unit. if you replace the compressor, remember the fan motor, controls are nine yrs old too.
Thanks, I was leaning towards replacing the entire unit as you suggested.
it should be way less for compressor change only..... not a smart idea on a 9 year old unit in my opinion............:no:
if it is a mechanical failure it is an easy change out and should be cheaper then a new condenser change out.if it is a burn out (which yours isn't)thats closer to a change out dryers,clean up of system new freon.what freon is the exsisting system...might have to go with a R-410A update then there in on the air handler changing stuff.staying with the original freon and just a compressor change should be considered.

During 2009, the Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute convened a group of poets, editors, publishers, and experts in copyright law and new media, with the goal of identifying obstacles preventing poetry from coming fully into new media and, where possible, imagining how to remove or mitigate these obstacles. Embracing the overarching value of access to poetry as its theme, the group saw that business, technological, and societal shifts had profound implications for poets publishing both in new and in traditional media, and also that poets have an opportunity to take a central role in expanding access to a broad range of poetry in the coming months and years. The resulting Poetry and New Media: A Users' Guide report covers topics such as copyright and fair use; royalties, permissions, and licensing; estates; access and lifelong engagement with poetry; and engaging educators, institutions, and communities.
The Harriet Monroe Poetry Institute invites poets, publishers, and everyone involved with poetry as an art form to consider this report, the upcoming Best Practices for Fair Use in Poetry document, and other available resources as they make their own thoughtful and conscious decisions based on their values and priorities in relation to these topics. As the new-media environment is ever changing, we present the Poetry and New Media report and the resulting Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Poetry in the spirit of an evolving conversation on a timely topic.
