My trail race is tomorrow, its just under 15 miles so a bit longer than a half but I'll be feeling your pain (a good few hours before you). Is it a hilly half then ? I've been to SF and the hills were pretty awesome, I'll be thinking of you as I slog my way up the big climb on my race.

I can recommend the audio tour thingy at Alcatraz, OH and I did it when we visited and it really immersed you in the place, those cells are tiny!

Good Luck teigyr
