Heart Magazine is a free publication in the Las Cruces/El Paso areas. It's so well presented that I…read morefeel bad grabbing a complimentary copy...it feels like stealing. This magazine is only published 3 times/year so it's a hot find once a new issue is released. Heart praises women in the community, it provides resources for parenting, health, beauty, dating, careers, etc. It's about positive self improvement. After reading their articles, Heart doesn't make me feel self conscious about who I am or make me feel that I need material items to make me feel better about myself (unlike the goal of a lot of women's magazines out there). It's a great motivator. Since I'm a graphic designer, I have to note that the graphic design is exceptional...not something you would expect from a free publication. My favorite article in the Summer 2007 issue: "{Just Ask Jeff} Love & Sex: a guide to awe, shock and tingly sensations". Somehow this writer summed up most of my experience with love from grade school up to my present life. The only difference was it was told by a man's point of view...if that makes any sense. You might have to read it to understand. Pick one up today!

When we first walked in the ladies checking tickets were a little rude with how they approached us and wondered what we were doing there.

There's a catch and it's not for everyone. Multiple loops on the same stretch of road, many times in a state or city park. That's when I thought that's not going to happen when I heard of the concept of Mainly Marathons, a small race company that puts on a series or marathons for those people, myself included, that loves to travel and pick off states for marathons and to accomplish a lifetime goal of popping 50 marathons in 50 states. I managed to stay away from Mainly marathons for my 1st turn, but found myself registered and had ultimately have run a Mainly marathon event in October 2016. I did it just to check out the scene and see what it was all about. This was my return trip to New Mexico to participate in the 2016 Mainly marathons - Day of the Dead series. This was my 91st marathon/ultra and 11th state marathon in the 2nd tour. The Day of the Dead marathon series spanned two days back to back. I chose to run just one of the days for the state of New Mexico, just because 2 days straight would be crazy, especially when it got warm after 9:00am. The overall experience for the Day of the Dead marathon was interesting. A small road race that had less than 150 people for both the marathon and half marathon distances. I disliked running multiple loops on the same course, but what can you do really since you're there and needing to add to your goals? It's really one of those things where you're a bit of a crazy person who travels and runs marathons or half marathons for fun, basically. That's me pretty much. The overall experience here at the Mainly marathons here in Las Cruces, NM was a unique and interesting experience. It was 12 loops of 2.something miles a piece of out and back stretches of a city park to make a marathon of 26.2 miles. It was 6 loops for the half marathon. They had us keep track of our laps by wearing rubber bands. I kept mine on my arm, since it kept me from going nuts as far as how much laps I needed to go for the coveted marathon distance finish. They have one main aid station at the start and finish line, since it was just a 2 mile something course. There was aid at the turn around, since it was rather warm towards noon and everyone else who was out there still needed expanded aid. There was limited, but plentiful parking here at the park and I'm thankful that I got directions from the Days Inn computer via google maps. They had a police unit out by the entrance directing people in. When I drove by, I thought initially that a crime scene was there lol They have race Morning packet pick up, which is quick and took less than 3 minutes. They look you up on a list of names and then find your individual bib in the bin. Nothing to it really, saves a lot of money by not having a race expo. The fun and company you have here can't be measured, but the miles and smiles are sure to be plenty. It was a cool morning, temperature wise, but warmed up to 80 degrees by 10:30am. Plenty of people, the very fast and the fast, pass by you on each lap. While that may be discouraging, you know in your heart that you are participating and putting in an honest day's effort and completing the required distance for your race. That's how it was for me, trying the best effort I knew that day, but in the end, the travel, the eating, and the 2 marathons before New Mexico (Maine at Mount Desert Island marathon and Michigan at Grand Rapids marathon) had gotten to me, but that final push to the finish line made it all the more worth the travel expense and reminded me why I still do this thing. Far from the maddening crowds and cheer zones, this race within the umbrella of the Mainly marathon series is a nice one, if you like loops and on the same course its run on. While it's not for everyone, it serves its purpose of having fun and picking up marathons that can be low cost when you sign up early. The buffet spread at the aid station was quite substantial. I had a few breakfast quesadillas during the early miles (4-6) along with Diet Coke and water in the later middle miles (15-18). 5.0 stars for the organization and race direction. Even the race director runs this marathon too. 4.0 stars for the food spread. 3.5 stars for the finisher medal. 2.0 stars for the loop course. Not a fan, but I got my 2nd marathon in New Mexico.
