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 #102: Rehoboth Seashore Marathon, DE
3:45 finish, 245/951 place overall. Flat, scenic, and well organized race along the coast of Delaware. Sunny and cold, but not windy - ideal conditions. Decent finish, consistent with recent marathons, and fastest of the four times I've done this race.

Marathon #101: Philadelphia Marathon, PA
3:48 finish. Nice well-supported race through downtown area and local parks, starting and finishing near the famous “Rocky Steps.” Mostly flat with a few hills in the mid to late miles. Ideal conditions - cloudy and chilly but not too windy. Third time doing this race; beat 2016 time by ten minutes and 2010 time by 16 minutes. A little slower than some of my recent marathons, but still better than average.
