P F Chang's Rock & Roll Marathon

HI,

Yesterday I mentioned that January isn't all about the auto auctions.  That is so true.  This weekend is the PF Chang's Rock and Roll Marathon.  While the actual event is on Sunday, 1/15, there are other events surrounding the actual race that start a couple days before.  Sunday, race day actually features a marathon and half marathon.  What sets the Rock and Roll Marathon apart from other marathons is all the other actibvities.  Every mile along the course has a different musical act providing entertainment for the crowd and encouragement for the runners.  The headline act at the finish line this year is the B-52's!  I'm tempted to get me some Rock Lobster!
On Saturday, kids can get a sense of what marathon running is about.  Kids Rock Arizona is a 1 mile run for K-6 grade kids.  Every child is a winner and will be rewarded with an official race number, T-shirt, goodie bag, and colorful medal – just for finishing! 

Of course there is entertainment surrounding the entire event to be found all over Tempe, Scottsdale and Phoenix.  For more info, check out the official R&R marathon web site.  The race winds through parts of Scottsdale, Tempe and Phoenix.  The marathon stars at CityScape in downtown Phoenix and ends in Tempe, while the 1/2 marathon starts and ends in Tempe with a stretch through Scottdsale.  It doesn't matter if you run, there's lots to enjoy.
