Whoever wrote that comment #3 is a wuss. Why not put your real name on it?

Yes, I removed it, because you don't have the balls to put your name or your blogger identity name on it.

For point #1, I don't read the Chronicle newspaper...

For point #1, I don't read the Chronicle newspaper, I expect the same material to be shown on the Chronicle's website: sfgate.com.

Point #2, true, Park Presidio is always open, but the when the Great Highway is closed, and all the park entrances (except Park Presidio), it becomes an annoying way to get around, especially Muni's 18 line.

I hear you. As a fellow Richmond District resident...

I hear you. As a fellow Richmond District resident, our neighborhood (and the Sunset) is sort of the main thoroughfare for many of the marathons and other races held in the city.

For what it's worth:

1. As you may have seen, The Chronicle published a SF Marathon race route on the (Satur)day before the race.

2. Park Presidio has never been closed during races AFAIK, but The Great Highway often is closed. So take the former but not the latter.
