(Above: Pictures from the Falmouth Mile held the day before the race (start time for the women's race is at 6:15p; men's at 6:30p) at Falmouth High School. This year 3 of the men finished under 4 minutes.)

(Above: Coming out of Woods Hole, you make a right down this street (I'm not sure of the name). My favorite view of the race.)

(Above: Surf Drive. This is mile 3-5 of the race. Gets me every year as there is no shade on this part of the course. In the background, almost dead center of the picture, you can see Falmouth Heights where the finish line is. )
(Above: The hill towards the end of the course. It's where Steve passed me two years ago when I thought I won the race. It's about 1/2 mile from the finish. When Joan Benoit spoke to the crowd at the award ceremony she said, 'After I climbed THAT hill, I thought 'I will never do this race again.' Then, I cross the finish and say to myself, 'That wasn't so bad!')
