What an exciting day. I drove up to Pennsylvania and ran the Gettysburg Marathon. I don’t like running in the cold but with a marathon, I toughed it out and ditched my sweater and pants and ran in short sleeves. We are talking about 35-40 F degree here. By 8 am the temperature warmed up… Continue reading Day367 Gettysburg Marathon

Day316 100 mile review
There were a lot of things went well and I also made a lot of newbie mistakes. In the end I did not finish. The 100 mile run is not easy. They say running a 100 miles is to overcome issues that crop up along the way. To finish you have to overcome those. Some… Continue reading Day316 100 mile review
day 257 virtual run#3
This weekend was originally planned to be a trip to Laurel Highlands in PA, Trip#3 to Pennsylvania, but with the stay at home order from our governor, it is not wise to run about. I am sure people of Pennsylvania would not be trilled to have me there either. Their trooper/park ranger might give me… Continue reading day 257 virtual run#3

Day 172 I will try to make this short. My race report usually goes on and on. The past weekend, I went to West Virginia and did the Morgantown Marathon. Boy, was it hard. To compare to previous marathons I ran, this was an ultra level marathon. I was knock out by mile 19. I… Continue reading Mountain boys

Day 146 – full race report (Jack and Jill) The marathon course by itself is one worth seeing. The course started from Hyak (aka Snoqualmie Pass, which is not near the Snoqualmie forest at all) and ended in North Bend. North Bend is about 45 minutes away from Seattle. The course is point to point,… Continue reading Reflection

Day 145 – Jack and Jill Marathon I did not have to use every minute available to complete this race and that in itself is a good news. I finished it an hour and half ahead of time! It wasn’t my best time but I was very happy though. I felt like I broke a… Continue reading Race Completed
