Race map and details
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 #86 (country #11): Longford Marathon, Ireland
3:47 finish, 56/146 male place. Nice low-key race running through farmland and small towns in north-central Ireland. Course is mostly flat with a few rolling hills. Ideal weather - cloudy and 60ish. About two minutes slower than Ottawa in May, but still better than average - fourth fastest time ever and third best in five years.
