I personally would love to see all of the racers have to do it the way you normally do with little to no support but if its allowed then you'd be crazy/dumb not to use it.<BR/><BR/>keep us all included with how things go!Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162538464436020664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-1605043940629000252008-08-29T07:06:00.000-08:002008-08-29T07:06:00.000-08:00i'm also against pacers in the sense that i think ...i'm also against pacers in the sense that i think races would be much more challenging and appealing if they did not allow pacers, and believe me I came to this decision to use a pacer only after thinking about it pretty seriously from both sides. however, i have a hard time saying that using a pacer in a race that allows for everyone to use pacers is an unfair advantage. an advantage yes, but an unfair advantage, of course not if everyone has the option to use pacers. <BR/><BR/>in the future i will likely run most of my races without pacers but this race is going to be such an increase in diffuculty compared to any other single day race i've ever done that i feel like it'd be pretty stubborn and hard headed not to use every tool possible to increase my chances of finishing.<BR/><BR/>more than anything i wish there were more races that had less/no support. this is a trend that has caught on (albeit sort of an underground/cultish following) in endurance mountain biking (GDR, TD, KTR, GLR, CTR, AZTR, etc.) and i hope it's only a matter of time before it catches on in endurance running.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238385683129822240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-87506353861504270692008-08-28T16:46:00.000-08:002008-08-28T16:46:00.000-08:00Most top guys are against pacers.
