Not being the kind to sit on their butts, the Pirañas are already planning their next assault (actually, they registered for this race several weeks ago!)
The Route 66 Marathon is a great race created and directed by Chris Leiberman. The Pirañas have participated in this event every year and love going. This year it looks like Mav and Weeble will do the marathon and T3 and P.I.T. Sweet Tee will do the half. This will be Sweet Tee’s first half and it will be cool to do it as a father-son thing.
Two years ago, Mav did the full in 3:30 after the Mother Road the weekend before (sub 23 finish) and then combined throwing up and pooping on the way home in ways no one had seen before. That turned out to be the second event in Sweet Tee’s introduction to ultra running. One weekend he saw his dad (T3) laying on the floor of Carl’s Jr. screaming like a girl after the Mother Road, then the following weekend he witnessed Mav’s breakdown. In a testimony to male bonding and testosterone, Sweet Tee was hooked, and has trained with the Brothers ever since.
