Marine Corps Marathon 2016

Triple Double (two marathons each weekend, three consecutive weekends) completed at the Marine Corps Marathon in Arlington, Virginia. The worst of the six. I’ll do the math on them later and lick my wounds, but suffice to say I did not meet my time goal, and I spent most of the race telling myself all…

Silver Comet Marathon 2016

The Silver Comet Marathon in Mableton, Georgia. My 25th state for the second time through the states. Another rough day with no one to blame but myself. Anyway, here’s some pictures and a fun fact. Fun fact: Atlanta is on the Eastern continental divide. East of the divide waters flow into the Atlantic Ocean, west…

Atlantic City Marathon 2016

Double weekend number two completed. The Atlantic City Marathon in New Jersey. The good news is that I was very consistent with yesterday. The bad news is that I was very consistent with yesterday. No more than six seconds slower per mile today. A flat, fairly uninspiring course with some wind, but otherwise perfect conditions….

Monster Mash Marathon 2016

Lifetime BLT (big long thing, 26.2 or longer) #100, #36 year to date at the Monster Mash marathon in Dover, Delaware. Cold, rainy, and windy weather that was mostly kept in check but for the back half. My time, disappointing, but I had as much fun as I could. The race director and volunteers were…

Kansas City (MO) Marathon 2016

Marathon #98, and #34 for the year at the Kansas City Marathon. Anticipating this as the toughest of the triple double (hilly and humid), my goal time was 4:20, actual 4:20:49. Big thanks to the hospitality of Dan and Paula for putting Amy and I up, feeding us, and generally playing Mom and Dad, and…

Des Moines Marathon 2016

Marathon or longer #99, and #35 for the year at the Des Moines Marathon. It seems Kansas City took a bigger bite out of me than I had anticipated. The goal was 4:15, but 4:32 is what I turned in. I’m not happy with it, but I gave it what I had. I’ll have to…

Chicago Marathon 2016

Lifetime marathon or longer number 97, the 33rd of the year, at the Chicago Marathon. 3:58:42 a sub4 I didn’t need or intentionally try for. It’s been almost 3 months since I finished a marathon in under 4 hours and this is a huge psychological boost I really needed. Fun fact: In the first running…

Inaugural Fort4Fitness Marathon 2016

Lifetime BLT #96, #32 Year to Date. Fort4Fitness Marathon. No fog today, just got tired. First half was <2 hours, but the back half I was trying to keep it under 4:15. I missed it by a couple minutes. The course is designed as 4 loops. You do a 3 mile loop, then do the…
