4:07 finish, 32/121 place overall. Warm and very humid but luckily stayed cloudy; nice low key course along rural rail-trail supporting local military families; more scenic than expected for Iowa. Went in expecting to be slow considering weather and short turnaround (3+ weeks is ideal), but ended up being about a minute faster than KY two weeks ago. No complaints.

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.
