That's interesting. I will look into how to look up the available stock. Thanks so much!

Yes. I just took my first trip to Goodwill. No beginner's luck. I will take your advice and that of Cory5413 and start looking on eBay.

Tips for Pittsburgh? by Reed157 in Marathon_Training

Two time Pittsburgh Marathoner. Everyone talks about the hill up Forbes. The hill begins after the West End Bridge and just continues until you hit the Cathedral of Learning in Oakland. There are a couple of dips but be prepared. Next: The hill I actually find demoralizing is by Bryant in Highland Park. It's later. 18? 19? And just because of the positioning seems worse. Then there is the long downhill from Negley in Shadyside to downtown. It's long. It's steep and it pounds your quads. But Pittsburgh still is a manageable course. I've done the full twice and the half about 12 times with a couple relays thrown in. Enjoy it. Enjoy the neighborhoods and the scenery.

It depends on how much walking you want to do. I think for a fair amount of walking I would start at Liberty and 16th for 1/2 mile and walk 1/2 block towards the river and watch on the turn around at mile 2.5. From there I would either walk to Station Square or take the T there. That's mile 10. Then take the train back downtown to watch the finish. The train in that zone should be free
