3:56 finish, 158/527 overall. Originally signed up for a MD Marathon but thought it would be canceled due a snowstorm (which it ended up not being), so signed up for this last minute. Perfect weather, great desert scenery about an hour east of Phoenix. Went out very fast (would have been PR if I maintained pace) but slowed down considerably after mile 20. Overall a good day though.

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.
