They’re available at most running stores, and a lot of out door stores like REI. But you can also buy them online.

This year The Dipsea Race was added to the list of the oldest races in the country, along with The Chicago Marathon. What makes it crazy? Check out these names for the aid stations along the course: Insult Hill, The Swoop, High Point, Cardiac, Hogsback, Dynamite, Suicide, Windy Gap, Dipsea Steps… (the Dipsea Steps sounds gentler than it is: 670 Steps looming over the starting line).

So… What is The Dipsea? n. (Pronounced Dip-See)

“First run in 1905, the Dipsea is the oldest trail race in America. It is run every year on the second Sunday in June. The scenic 7.4 mile course from Mill Valley to Stinson Beach is considered to be one of the most beautiful courses in the world. The stairs and steep trails make it a grueling and treacherous race. And its unique handicapping system has made winners of men and women of all ages. Because of its beauty and challenge, it is a very popular event, and because of safety and environmental concerns the number of runners is limited to about 1,500. While racers enter from all over the world, the Dipsea is primarily a Northern California event and the entry process is tilted slightly to favor local contestants.” (http://www.dipsea.org/index.html)

The Dipsea sells out fast, and registration is only open for about a month. After that bibs go on sale through craigslist, a lottery, or a silent auction. Next year’s Dipsea race is about 350 days away… better hit the stair stepper!

We plan it out, and lay out our clothes the night before. Turns out, so do the costume racers. There’s a certain kind of racer that seeks the grander that comes with running a marathon in head to tow cellophane, or a tuxedo, or dressed as a hamburger. What is it about these cosutmed runners? Are they crazy… or are we missing out on something?

Just a heads up to some of you newbies who aren’t expecting it, some of the best costumes are from either Bay to Breakers in San Francisco, CA., or in the London Marathon. So keep your eyes peeled for superman, spongebob, an etch-i-sketch, or a troupe of Elvises.

But what happens when you’re going too slow, or too fast for that matter? Can you do damage to your form? Can elite runners even run that slow?

Many thanks to Peter L. for his slow motion videos.
