26.2 with Donna, 2/12/12, Beaches, Jacksonville, FL

Carol Zingone, Beaches Expert, Northeast FL : Real Estate Agent in Jacksonville Beach, FL

Tomorrow is the big race day here in Jacksonville & the beaches - it's the annual 26.2 with Donna End Breast Cancer half and full marathons!

There will be road closures, and detours, and everyone is prepared; watching the preparations is interesting: there are cars from the auto sponser dotting one main course, J. Turner Butler (which us locals call JTB), and portable faciliites set up.

The race starts at 6:30am and everyone should be in from the course by 2pm. Here's the link to the race route, so you can plan appropriately.

Congrats to all the runners, and dress warm; we are going to have cold temps in the AM!
