3:49 finish, 154/611 place overall. Second time doing this course, and even though I knew how boring it was, dirt cheap registration and no travel costs motivated me to sign up. It helped to know ahead of time that the second half would stink, and I managed to plow through it with my second best marathon time ever, only four minutes off PR from just three weeks earlier. The three-week turnaround appeared to be a non-issue, reinforcing the conclusion I reached after Philly that I can handle more frequent marathons.

Welcome! This blog gives a summary of each marathon with finish time/place, course info, conditions, and links to performance data and travel photos. There are also separate pages listing marathons in different countries/continents, states, and Canadian provinces as well as general info about my running background, frequently asked questions, and advice for anyone looking to start running or exercising more. This blog is linked on my Facebook page, but I'm very rarely on social media otherwise.
