2009 Austin Marathon Results (Yes, For Real)

As you've probably figured out, the Austin Marathon site has been inaccessible the whole day. Here is a site you can find the results of today's marathon: http://results.active.com/pages/page.jsp?eventID=1544913&pubID=3

The Austin Marathon site, www.youraustinmarathon.com, is still down, but it now redirects to a Marathons of Texas Web site, which includes the Active.com results link above. That Web site also says "For questions please call the race hotline, 512.476.7223."

2009 Austin Marathon - Web Site Not Responding

I'm sure a lot of people are trying to find out results or information about the 2009 Austin Marathon ... and aren't getting it. The marathon has a new Web site, www.youraustinmarathon, and it is apparently inaccessible due to heavy volume.

I'll keep trying to log onto it and post any link I can find to the results page.
