An island in the Amazon river delta:
I had fallen asleep feeling like somebody dropped a bowling ball on the base of my spine. I woke up in the middle of the night, awakened by something unidentifiable but decidedly mammalian scrabbling on the roof, unable to even crawl to the bathroom for a percocet. I couldn't roll over. Moving my legs was impossible. I just lay there, near tears on the spongy bed in the deserted barracks-like eco-lodge, trying to slowly, slowly rock myself over onto my back.
No landline. No cell phone. No way off the island other than the privately chartered puddle jumper not due back for another two days. A satellite phone with spotty service the only communication with the outside world. Four hours by boat to even the nearest store. Finally, after 15 minutes of trying, I managed to heave myself onto my back but even raising myself onto my elbows was a challenge.
Succeeding in increments, it was now time to try getting my legs onto the floor. No go. Try again. Fail. After about half an hour of this, finally managed to creep to the bathroom in the dark, a sad, slower, less spry version of Estelle Getty, and dry-swallow my last two pills. They helped. 4 hours of yen sleep followed—that opiate-style sequence of half hour nods, each unsatisfying period of semi-consciousness haunted by vivid dreams:
Marcel from Top Chef, break dancing with a capivera…Marijoara Indians staring at me dispassionately, green smoke issuing from their nostrils, Klaus Kinski conducting atop an out of control riverboat…my high school sweetheart coming at me with an ice-shaver.
Woke up for the final time to strong coffee and buffalo cheese, the crew rigging the pick-up truck, sneaking looks at me to see if "the talent" was going to make it. When your crew starts referring to you as the talent" by the way, it's not a good thing. My inability the previous day to assist in hauling in a 125 lb. pirarucu seen, secretly, as a liability—a betrayal of all their efforts. And their efforts had indeed been heroic. Brazil is a magnificent place. And there is nothing so savagely beautiful as the Amazon region. But sometimes, it seems a lot more magnificent in retrospect.
Making television in the Amazon is hard. And my crew payed a price: Zach came down with a virus: high temperatures, sweats, chills. He spent his last day in the heavy, humid heat zipped up to the chin in a hooded down parka. Alan got some sort of awful skin rash—cause unknown—and was shitting like a mink for 24 hours. By the plane home, he was ghost white and dehydrated. I was acutely aware of how difficult this back problem was for a crew trying to make television: a host who was hobbling around like the hunchback of Notre Dame, teeth grinding with every step, making all-too-audible whimpers of pain with every jostle and bump—thereby blowing the audio. We'd flown all the way out in a storm, the "STALL" warning in the tiny plane flashing repeatedly in the middle of zero visibility and turbulence—and for what? That's what they're thinking, I was sure.
I'd never had problems with my back before. When I was a chef, I was always dismissive to the point of contempt for those around me who'd complain of "back problems". I had no idea. NO idea. But thank God for cameramen with back problems (and they all seem to have them), because they all seem to carry impressive supplies of serious prescription pain killers. With my percocets gone, I was able to replace them with a healthy ration of donated Vicodins and codeines. And through the miracle of modern medical science, managed to complete the shoot with near-believable physical grace.
Back in New York, of course, it's steroid shots and muscle relaxers and then back on the plane—this time to Hokkaido. I will, it appears, be fine for the ski scenes.
Sapporo, Japan:
It's cold here and snowing . There are seven foot snow drifts where the plows cut through. They don't salt the streets so the avenues are white, but the sidewalks, are heated. It may be cold outside, but the food is amazing and the marvelous toilet seats are toasty warm. All of us on the crew, are, I suspect, spending a little more time lingering on the bowl than we might ordinarily. It's that helpful spray feature, with fingertip adjustable heat and intensity control., makes riding the porcelain bus an experience. They put corn in the ramen here. And slabs of steaming pork loin, hefty crab legs and even heftier scallops. And—wonderfully enough—butter. The lights make a chirping sound at the crosswalks and the same woman's voice talks to you in elevators as summons you into restaurants and businesses. Everywhere you look there are brightly colored photos of food and plastic replicas of sushi, chirashi, yakitori and fried things….Sleep is a problem as we're 14 hours ahead, but I've got a pile of DVDs and wake up in the middle of the night to watch Obayashi and Oshima on my laptop.
Ghengis Khan meal tomorrow.
Seeing what's happening in Egypt on the TV, I think back to when we made our show there. The price of flour had just gone up and there had been bread riots recently. The army, someone told me, controlled bread distribution. And bread makes up as much as 70% of the average Egyptian's daily diet (more by some accounts). We wanted to shoot "ful", the all-too-typical working man's breakfast for much of Egypt; a watery plate of chick peas and broth, accompanied by a stack of flatbread—usually sold in the street. But our government handler wouldn't allow it. So our resourceful producer feigned an emergency need for a bathroom and distracted him while we quickly snapped off a quick ful scene. I get what it was all about, now. This humble, dirt cheap, but filling breakfast was (as the government was all too aware) all that stood between maintaining a hated and corrupt status quo—and the uprising we are seeing now. They were afraid. And what they were afraid of has come to pass. What's next? It certainly doesn't bode well for us that we've been supporting and arming a particular despicable (but obliging) character. Let's hope the new guys—whoever they are— don't hold a grudge.

We have exciting news to share; Congress is poised to take a meaningful step to protect you and your family from toxic chemicals. We need your help to make sure your Senators know that fixing the toxic chemicals law is important to American families!
Just as we have laws against people breaking into our homes and threatening our safety, we need laws against chemical intruders that enter our bodies.
Without our knowledge or consent, these toxic intruders put us and our children at risk. Science is linking toxic chemical exposure to all kinds of serious diseases and disorders, including childhood leukemia and brain cancers, breast and testicular cancer, neurological disorders like autism and Alzheimer's, and fertility problems.
We need you to ask your Senators to co-sponsor this important piece of legislation. By signing up as a co-sponsor, your Senators can show their commitment to putting common sense limits on toxic chemicals.
Will you take a minute and ask your Senators to be superheroes by co-sponsoring the Safe Chemicals Act?
If you prefer to make a two-minute phone call to your Senators, please call the Capitol switchboard at: (202) 224-3121. If you need some tips before calling, read this message from Lindsay Dahl, the Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families Deputy Director.

The answer is Quartzite. Not to be confused with manmade Quartz products, natural quartzite is a very hard metamorphic rock consisting of a mosaic of inter-grown quartz crystals. Quartzite forms when sandstone is heated to extreme temperatures during metamorphism. It's often white and grey in color, but blues, reds, greens, or beiges are not entirely uncommon. The formation process behind this metamorphosed rock tends to give it soft, somewhat linear veining that resembles marble.
Quartzite is a whopping 7 out of 10 on Moh's Scale of Mineral Hardness. As a comparison, granite is typically between a 6 and a 7, and marble is only a 3. The density of natural Quartzite, which directly corresponds with porosity, can vary. Sometimes this stone is extremely dense making it practically nonporous, other times it is less dense and more porous. Try taking a sample of the specific quartzite slab you're considering and testing the staining potential by leaving a colored liquid on the surface for 5-10 minutes. When you wipe off the liquid, if it leaves little to no color on the stone, the quartzite is probably very dense and an average sealer will suffice. If the liquid leaves a medium to bright color on the quartzite sample, you should probably consider a powerful sealer to help protect the stone.
Possibly the greatest benefit of quartzite in the kitchen over marble, is the greatly reduced potential for surface etching. Marble is a calcite, and calcite reacts with acids, so when you're dealing with acidic foods or liquids on a marble countertop, you're likely to etch the surface polish. Quartzite on the other hand, is made almost entirely of quartz, which does not typically react with acids. To be sure that the specific quartzite slabs that you're considering for your project will not etch, use the same sample you used for your porosity test and try leaving a small puddle of straight lemon juice on the surface for 5-10 minutes. Wipe it off and check for any signs of etching (spots where the polish isn't as shiny any more).
So, if you love Bianco Carrara Marble, but you have to have a stone that will withstand the everyday wear and tear of your family, Quartzite slabs like our Moon Light Quartzite are the perfect solution to your dilemma.

Columnist Bill Kirby seems to think that Cumberland County Schools Superintendent Frank Till should be nominated for sainthood for refusing to ask for a raise. ("Schools leader a true team player," Dec. 5.)
Here's a little perspective: Till scrapes by on $237,820 a year. My daughter, a special education teacher, earns a gross salary of $37,000 a year. She has an undergraduate degree from UNC-Chapel Hill, a master's degree from Columbia University in New York City, and eight years of classroom experience. She hasn't had a raise in three years.
So, while it is very noble of Dr. Till to make do with his current salary, I hardly think he deserves canonization.
This letter is in response to the Nov. 26 article, "Inside Politics," about City Council member Val Applewhite criticizing City Manager Ted Voorhees for not responding to a weekend email.
I have managed many smaller entities than a city and recognize that, in management, having a quiet weekend is a sweet rarity. Being on call 24-7, all hours of the night, sick, in the middle of family functions, and all manner of personal times, I understood that when those above and below me needed my input on issues, I was responsible to be available.
The city manager should have at least checked his messages for urgent matters. Then he could have simply responded to Applewhite's email, acknowledged it was received, but due to the fact that he was ill, he would need to address the matter on Monday. That would have sufficed.
And I sympathize with Applewhite's frustration on all the "political maneuvering" in the city. Kudos to her and those who shut down the parks bond referendum. Well done. Thank you for listening. The city is choking on traffic, crime and unemployment, and now we are facing the negative effects on businesses because of the looming cuts to the military. Parks and pools should not be our focus right now.

BLAINE - A hunk of shoreline property near a man's home fell from an embankment and into Semiahmoo Bay late Tuesday, Jan. 8.
About 2 inches of rainfall flooded a ditch and maxed out a drainage pipe that goes out to the bay in the 8600 block of Semiahmoo Parkway. County workers threw sandbags along the road, but the effort couldn't stop an estimated 50-by-80-foot piece of the bluff - where the piping from a culvert sticks out - from sliding away.
"Water was absolutely rocketing out of the pipe, going five or six feet before even dropping down," said neighbor Steve Halpin.
The nearest house was a few dozen feet away, so it wasn't damaged. But residents said it's another scary sign for the integrity of the shoreline.
Halpin blames overzealous logging to the east where, more than a decade ago, the dense trees once kept water from flooding the drainage system. Since 2003, three landslides have eroded residential property at a row of houses leased out by the state Department of Natural Resources.
Rob Janicki, who has run the logging operation since fall, said he understands the residents' frustration. He said some of the logging profits - amounting to "six figures" - have been pledged toward fixing the drainage problems.
"When an adjacent landowner makes the issue worse, we feel the need to fix that," he said.
The solution is still in the works by Janicki's engineers, but he expects it will mean larger, more effective piping that takes the water all the way out to the bay, rather than just to the very edge of the bluff. About 50,000 trees also are expected to be replanted in the former woods to the east.
Those projects won't start until the wet season is over.

Warrior is running the Super Invictus (Invictus is "unconquerable" in Latin) spots, which promote the new Spyne heads and Dolomite Diamond shafts, and Brine's ads focus on their Join the Tribe mantra. Both campaigns were developed by Team Detroit, and include more than just TV — they're about interacting with the brand.

The death of Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first black president who fought apartheid both as a prisoner of that system of white rule and later as a political leader, drew an outpouring of messages from around the globe. Here is some of the reaction:
Counting himself among the millions influenced by Nelson Mandela, President Barack Obama on Thursday mourned the death of the anti-apartheid icon with whom he shares the distinction of being his nation's first black president.
The thing about Nelson Mandela was that he made the rest of us want to be almost as noble as he.
Most of the seven men sentenced with Nelson Mandela to life in prison for sabotage and plotting to overthrow the white government were arrested in July 1963 during a police raid on their headquarters, a farm in the Johannesburg suburb of Rivonia.

The Plumas County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a memorandum of understanding Dec. 1 with the Plumas National Forest for construction of a multi-agency fire center at Nervino Airport in Beckwourth.
The Plumas National Forest applied for and will receive $2.2 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, commonly referred to as the stimulus package, to build the facility.
The MOU said the facility would "allow federal, county and private emergency response services to cooperatively serve Plumas County."
It also indicated the project would provide barracks and operational facilities for the Beckwourth Hotshots; support for air operations during fire incident management; and an improved strategic location for storing Beckwourth Fire District engines.
Finally, the document explained the county hoped to expand the airport, and on-site fire protection services were required for that to move forward.
Plumas County Facility Services Director Joe Wilson told the board the project would also include a helitack base for the Forest Service and possibly a CareFlight station.
He added the airport would be annexed into the Beckwourth Fire District, and surrounding areas would get faster emergency response times.
"It's one of those win, win, win projects for everyone," he concluded.
Wilson pointed out the county would receive rent from the Forest Service, Beckwourth Fire and CareFlight. The price would be determined by a fair market value appraisal for airport land.
He also announced two out of three county airports would have a fire station on site.

Remember the little girl who was trying to get Miranda Lambert visit to the Big Dog Ranch Rescue? Well she got her wish while Miranda was in Florida for a show over the weekend.

Everyone was aware that Wednesday marked the return of Miikka Kiprusoff. Who knew that it would also be the return of Blake Comeau, scorer of goals? The Calgary Flames' hard-luck forward bagged the game-winner in a 4-1 decision over the San Jose Sharks in National Hockey League action at the Scotiabank Saddledome. Goal-less this winter, Comeau's last tally had come way back on March 26, 2012. But in the early stages of the third period, he took a smart feed from Chris Butler, wheeled down the right wing, and popped a perfect shot over goalie Thomas Greiss's shoulder. The subsequent celebration looked like a mix of happiness and relief. "That's a fair assessment, for sure," said Comeau. "I feel that no one puts more pressure on themselves than I do. It was a good feeling to get on the board. Maybe I'll be able to sleep a little bit better tonight. "More importantly, it was nice to get the win and keep climbing the standings. So if I can contribute, that's a good thing. And if we keep winning, that's even better."
Kiprusoff, Comeau return to top form as Flames blast Sharks

(1998), as well as headlined numerous B-films, straight-to-video releases, and television movies. In 1999,

This Hallmark Channel TV movie is one of several starring Kellie Martin as Samantha "Sam" Kinsey, the owner of a British-style American bookshop which traffics in mystery novels. The game is afoot when Sam's friend Barbara Sommers (Patricia McCormack, a dyed-in-the-wool conspiracy buff, suspects foul play in the death of a wealthy relative. Still worse, Barbara has been frozen out of the will, which favors such high-profile lowlifes as the dead man's brassy trophy wife Madaline (Robyn Lively) and his covetous stepdaughter Fawn (Kari Wuhrer. After crying "foul" in public over the questionable circumstances surrounding the loved one's death and the subsequent bequests, Barbara is herself murdered--and the incriminating photos which she had in her possession have vanished. Investigating the killing, Sam and her friends, former CIA agent Philby (Casey Sander) and public prosecutor Cassie (Nina Siesmazko), unearth a trail of evidence going as far back as 60 years!

Touted as something of a return-to-form for Re-Animator director Stuart Gordon, King of the Ants offers the brutal tale of a man discovering his previously untapped potential for violence. Despite the fact that his future seems relatively undefined, young drifter Sean Crawley (Chris McKenna) is an easygoing guy who makes a meager living by painting houses. When electrician Duke Wayne (George Wendt) suggests that the naïve young painter could make more money if he could expand his horizons, an eager Sean takes him up on the offer and Duke introduces Sean to local construction magnate Ray Mathews (Daniel Baldwin). Ray quickly enlists Sean's assistance in trailing a local city accountant whose number crunching is beginning to make the crooked construction heavy uncomfortable, and it's not long before Ray asks Sean to carry out a hit on the overzealous accountant. Although Ray and Duke subsequently attempt to distance themselves from the crime, Sean's attempt to collect on the hit results in a brutal attempt on the amateur hit man's life. Though he is beaten to within inches of death, Sean makes an unexpectedly speedy recovery fueled by an unquenchable thirst for revenge. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A mockumentary set in Hollywood, Do It for Uncle Manny is the tale of Stu (Shane Edelman). Stu, the favorite nephew of the titular producer Manny Solis, is in town to stay at his uncle's place while interviewing for a posh job at a law firm. Although money and Armani suits beckon, Stu really wants to become a scriptwriter. So he turns to his best friend Danny (Adam Baratta, also the film's director), who waits tables at a Chinese restaurant of dubious repute and goes on desultory acting auditions. It isn't long before Danny and Stu are painting the town a sickly shade of Bachelor Beige, with Danny teaching his friend the seven basic laws of picking up women and leading him along the merry path to County Sleaze. Along the way, however, they meet Jenny, a swinger who proves to be the men's match in more than a few ways, including her ability to lie and manipulate with the best of them. Do It for Uncle Manny, which features performances from Louie Anderson and Paul Mazursky, was screened at the 2002 Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

In this throwback monster movie from producer Dean Devlin (Independence Day, Godzilla), David Arquette plays the son of a deceased mine owner, returning home to the economically depressed hamlet of Prosperity, AZ, after a long absence. His arrival coincides with a toxic waste accident in the local water supply, the result of a barrel jostled loose from the back of a passing truck. Unfortunately, said water source abuts the region's least-popular attraction: an exotic spider farm. The farm's owner (Tom Noonan) becomes the first victim when the spiders, already possessed of keen predatory abilities, grow to the size of small automobiles. Laying in wait underground, they begin picking off the town's pet and ostrich population, and soon it's all the local sheriff (Kari Wuhrer) can do to raise the alarm before the siege begins. Eight Legged Freaks was produced under the working title "Arac Attack," but the politically conscious producers, concerned the title sounded too much like "Iraq Attack," went with Arquette's brainstorm as a safer alternative. ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi

A man faces death and finds love at the same time and place in this emotional comedy-drama. Taylor Darcy (Jonathan Silverman) is a bright but cynical television writer who is emotionally thrown for a loop when his doctor diagnoses him with colon cancer. While Taylor prefers to ignore the bad news at first, in time, he takes the advice of his oncologist and checks himself into the hospital for treatment. Taylor suddenly becomes the recipient of an outpouring of sympathy and good wishes from his friends, which goes against the grain of his dark-humored nature, and he doesn't deal well with the physically and emotionally taxing routine of surgery and radiation therapy. While in the hospital, Taylor meets Lynn Piegi (Natasha Gregson Wagner), a woman who is living with leukemia; Lynn's sarcastic sense of humor in the face of grim news meshes well with Taylor's personality, and he finds himself falling in love with her. But as Taylor advances toward recovery, he has to deal with the fact that Lynn's condition is far more serious than his own, and that she is not likely to survive. The Medicine Show was written and directed by Wendell Morris, who was inspired to make the film after his own bout with cancer. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

What's a music biz insider to do when a beautiful girl turns out to have an ugly voice? Roger Deacon (Peter Outerbridge) is a once-successful record producer whose career hit the skids after he let a number of bad habits get the better of him. The head of a major record label offers Roger a chance to pull his career out of the doldrums by producing an album for Sunni (Kari Wuhrer), a sexy would-be pop goddess who happens to be the label chief's girlfriend. There's one little problem, though -- Sunni can't sing to save her life, and no amount of studio trickery at Roger's disposal is able to conceal that fact. One night, after a failed session with Sunni, Roger ends up at a bar on karaoke night, and he hears Maggie Stanley (Gail O'Grady), a housewife, sing a number. Roger is struck by the fact that Maggie has the perfect voice for the material he's trying to cut with Sunni, and faster than you can say Milli Vanilli, he convinces Maggie to sing for Sunni, despite her natural shyness and stage fright. However, when Sunni discovers she's been reduced to a lip sync act for her upcoming video and concert tour, she's none too happy, and shares her displeasure with her boyfriend; Roger, meanwhile, is wrestling with the fact that he's fallen in love with Maggie, who is married and not prepared to leave her husband.

Originally seen on cable's Sci Fi Channel, the fifth and final season of Sliders continues the efforts by a group of time-and-space travelers to hopscotch from one alternate world to another, with the ultimate goal of saving their world (which of course is also our world) from the despotic reign of the warrior Kromagg race. In the course of events, the series loses its original leading man: Quinn Mallory, the college student who'd invented the device that enabled him and his companions to "slide" from world to world, is lost during a "bad slide," and at the same time his brother Colin is blown to smithereens. Though we may never see Colin again in this world, Quinn's life essences are transferred to another slider who is immediately rechristened Quinn Two -- a mighty slick method to replace departing cast member Jerry O'Connell with newcomer Robert Floyd. As for Quinn Two's sliding comrades, only Cleavant Derricks as Rembrandt Brown remains from the series' original cast; the other slider, Maggie Beckett (Kari Wuhrer), has been with the series since its third season. In addition to Quinn Two, Rembrandt, and Maggie, the slider team now boasts the services of African-American scientist Diana Davis (Tembe Locke). At the conclusion of the series, the team ends up on yet another alternate earth, where "slideology" has become a religion thanks to a prophet called The Seer, and the sliders' exploits have been dramatized on a cable TV show. (What was that old saying, "life imitates art?") Now it is up to our heroes to take this Earth's miraculous "anti-alien" virus to Rembrandt's Earth in order to squash the Kromagg -- but as so often happens on Sliders, things go awry, and the whole cycle starts all over again! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

I travelled to Oregon in 2005 to run this "Top 10 most beautiful marathon" race. Upon arrival in Hood River (during a local bike race classic that filled the town with cyclists and fans) it took half an hour to find anyone that knew anything about "a marathon" and another 15 minutes to find the start/packet pickup (it's a small town) for the next morning. There were one or two friendly but disoriented volunteers in a big empty tent who really didn't know what was going on for the race. You bus out to Dalles for the start (there were about 50 of us in total) and stand around freezing (it was around 45 degrees at the start, overcast, Columbia River Gorge HEADwind) and waiting by a boat dock public bathroom for race instructions. Then off you go. We were told it was snowing in Portland (the direction we were heading) at the time. Beautiful, windy, lonesome day. Aid stations OK, friendly folks here and there in parked in pickup trucks along the way cheering us on. There is a HUGE 2.5 mile steep, ~800 elev. winding climb at halfway point nobody seems to mention, up to a scenic overlook. Then 2 miles steep downhill. Later, another big ~500 elev. climb. Last mile a steep decline - you have to love hills, or at least train well for them or your quads will be quivering mush. Oddly, I got a PR on this course. And the view of the whole Columbia River at the scenic outlook was unforgettable (and hard-earned).
This is a truly beautiful marathon course. However, I wouldn't recommend this for beginners for the following reasons: a) very hilly course with a 800+-feet elevation gain, b)the gorge is like a wind tunnel and the course goes AGAINST the wind, c)infrequent water stations, d) no spectators to cheer you on. This is a very small marathon with little organization. There were a maximum of 50 runners at the starting line. I ran much of the course without seeing another runner. The finish line was pathetic (and poorly marked) with no clock to show your time. When will results be posted?? The medals are a disgrace (made of cardboard & twine??). This is NOT a professionally run race and is unlikely to survive with such low turnout. What a shame for such a beautiful course and wonderful town (Hood River).
I only ran the 1/2 marathon in 2005. Check-in was easy. Course was great except... they had the turn-around in the wrong spot. So the 1/2 ended up only being about 11.8 miles long. Only water at the finish - no sports drink. Other food was fine. This is just like a little local race. I would not suggest you travel to do this race. I would do it again for the view only.
I have run this marathon twice and have seen a definite decline in quality since 2001. It's a pity considering the setting and volunteers; as many others have stated, this could easily become a destination event. Like L.W. in Washington and K.S. from Ohio, I too am waiting for my pasta feed refund and age group award. C'mon Kevin, step up. Pay back what you owe and then either put on a quality event or pass it on to someone who is willing to try. I'd like to think you will sleep better if you do.
This race was my first and the scenery was enough to take your mind off the task at hand. The race never felt quite like a race however because of the poor organization of the event as a whole. There was no official starting line and the race did start 15 minutes late. The race director was not even present 10 minutes prior to the start. One porta-pottie per rest stop gave you an average wait time of 5 people. The carbo dinner cruise was cancelled and we have not been refunded the purchase price of that dinner as of yet (4 weeks later). The race director has not answered emails regarding this refund and his phone number has been disconnected. As long as Kevin Foreman is the race director I would not add this to your list of events unless you just want to run an unorganized, unprofessional marathon. Get the map and run it on your own as your long run instead as it is a beautiful place.
I agree with all who previously posted. Beautiful scenery. The website boasted a Gorge Fest! I couldn't find a festival. The host hotel sent us to the wrong location for packet pick-up. No course maps were available. My family had hoped to drive along the course to take pictures and cheer me on, but we're not from the area and didn't know the route. There wasn't even a starting line! We just all gathered in a parking lot. The website promoted 13 aid stations and fresh fruit along the course. I believe it mentioned cherries, apples and peaches. There werre 10 aid stations, and I got offered a banana at one. I'm glad I carried my own water bottle, because no marathoner should have to run 4 miles without any fluid replacement. OK, the finisher's medals were unique, but mine didn't even have a string on it! As for post-race replenishment... banana's and bagels. I couldn't even find water! And where were the long sleeve Finisher T-shirts they promised? I didn't get mine. The $75.00 fee certainly doesn't go back into the race. I do not recommend this race.
I looked forward to running this marathon for the renowned 'gorge-ous' course and for the extra festivities that were advertised on the website. While I enjoyed the course tremendously (awesome and challenging), the 'extras' were not exactly as expected. The 'long-sleeved' T-shirt must have had the sleeves cropped, the '13 aid stations' were reduced to 10 without electrolytes at many of them, the '40 vendors' at the festival were virtually invisible, the packet pick-up volunteers didn't have info about the race or the maps -- 'Maps are coming soon ...' Somebody better check to see if they've arrived yet. 'Carbo Cruise' turned into a 'Dinner Train' without warning and a time difference of 1 1/2 hours. Then it was cancelled without explanation. I'll be checking my VISA statement to make sure it's credited. Although, the finisher's medal isn't the most important thing to me, at least it should look like one and have the word 'finisher' on it -- maybe even the word 'marathon' on it as well. I have run in other marathons that cost less and came through on it's promotional extras. I hope that this can be improved because it is a first-rate course. Keep the course and the great aid station volunteers -- they worked harder than the race organizers.
I just ran this marathon a few days ago. I agree with P.H.'s recent comment, because I experienced similar hassles trying to pick up my race number and timing chip. The only saving graces of this race were the spectacular scenery of the Columbia River Gorge throughout most of the course and the few but helpful and enthusiastic volunteers at the aid stations. Aside from that, there are no excuses for the utter lack of organization and the staffing of clueless volunteers during registration, sitting 3 to a seat in a school bus during the ride to the start, a cheap ceramic medal, little evidence of Ultima or food at the finish, and the false advertising that billed this as part of a larger event experience. The Columbia Gorge is spectacular, but this event falls short of being called a 'GorgeFest!' If the race director and/or organizers would pay attention and work to correct their lack of organization, this marathon could be rated as one of the best in the country!
The weather cooperated, the course was spectacular and challenging, the volunteers were cheerful and friendly. With 8 aid stations, I could have used one or two more. Pre-race organization seemed almost non-existent although it came together pretty well on race day. I would definitely recommend this race for those of you who do not want or need a lot of structure in your race organization and especially if you desire gorgeous scenery. It is probably a lot like road racing was back before it got really popular.
While this is a very beautiful course and I had a great time, it is upsetting to pay so much money for such poor organization. The promoters (I hesitate to think of them as anything but fast buck artists) promised many things that they failed to deliver, including a pre-race carb dinner cruise changed without notice into a carb dinner train trip (at a different time) then cancelled without explanation. The aid stations didn't start until after the 4th mile with no electrolytes until even later. Transportation to the start was terrible and both starts were late. Nothing was as advertised, except the scenery. The route is very tough - two major hills with about 700' elevation gain each - very satisfying to complete the course, but save your money and run it on your own!
