4:16 finish, 29/90 place overall. Nice course through residential and farm areas in and around Morgan, UT - just northeast of Salt Lake. Heat, hills, altitude, and a two-week turnaround made for a very sluggish second half, but still broke the 4:30 goal.

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.

Marathon #74 (sub-4:30 state #47; second round state #5): Aspen Valley Marathon, CO
4:07 finish, 100/273 overall. Very scenic course mostly along a bike path from Aspen to Basalt, CO. Consistent gradual downhill and cool weather minimized slowdown from high altitude. Felt good overall.
