Where's Beat the Burnside?
June 10, 2007
Beat the Burnside, the fun running event that pits runners agaist the raising of the Burnside Bridge, is taking a break for 2007. Not by choice, but because of construction. The event will come back in June of 2008, refreshed, renewed and more fun than ever.
Beat the Burnside is a personal challenge run. Start any time you like, but you must make it to the bridge before it raises up. The party and finisher rewards are on the other side, so you don't want to be late. I've heard from fast runners who stand at the top, watching the clock count down, waiting to leave at the last second, hoping they'll be fast enough. But one racer told me he starts to get nervous. "I see all those other people leaving, people who look really fit, really fast, and I think, man, I better leave too!"
