out and back for Big Sur Marathon

Editor's note: Just talked to the folks at the Big Sur International Marathon. The out-and-back course for this year is virtually a done deal. Caltrans may have the road repaired before the May 1 race, but it may not be ready to hold all the bus traffic that flows down Highway 1 on race morning. If it's any consolation, part of the race will go through Point Lobos, one of the most beautiful spots on the Monterey Peninsula. Go to montereyherald.com for the latest developments. Also BSIM.org has lots of information, including a FAQ. - dave
