Coming Soon

In our attempt to run a marathon on all seven continents, my brother Chris and I are going to attempt to run the 2008 Great Wall Marathon on May 17, 2008. Our parents are going to join us this time and we look forward to reconnecting with some of the runners from the 2005 Antarctica Marathon.

The race winds through China's Tianjin province and includes two secions on the Great Wall totaling 6K with 3,700+ steps, some apparently knee-high. When not on the wall, the course makes it way through the small villages and farmland surrounding the Great Wall.
