Day477 MMT conclusion
This was one of those goals I was trying to reach and ended up failing. I have been telling myself, I picked too many safe goals in the past where failures are almost impossible and I needed to try some of those goals where success is not guaranteed. So, I am not sad about not…

Day470 Salisbury Marathon (RunSBY)
After running the Newport News Marathon last month, I came into the Salisbury Marathon, thinking it would be about the same. While it is easy to compare and contrast the two because they were still fresh on mind, but that is not what will do. I enjoyed running them. This race allowed me just to…

Day466 Newport News Marathon
With 77F / 25C, strong winds, I couldn’t have asked for a better running condition. Ideally 40-50F might be better suited for me in breaking any personal records. It was hot by any standard, but I was ready to leave winter behind, the heat was not a problem for me. No more long sleeves and…

Day449 Rim to River 100
I was fortunate to take part in the Rim to River 100 at the New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia of their second year race. Monday quarterbacking – Of course I could still have done better, such as be more efficient at the aid stations. I noticed many people I was able pass…

Day441 Eau Claire Marathon
That was the Eighth marathon-state and 42 more states to go. If I count the Rocky Raccoon I ran in February in Texas, it would be the nineth. Rocky Raccoon was an ultra marathon, and it is not the same as a normal marathon. When I run a normal marathon I feel I am fast…

Day438 Lake Ridge 12 hrs Run
Call it a lack of discipline on my part when I signed up for a race I know I shouldn’t since it was so close to my marathon date. But I am an addict to running, I confess. I had a free weekend and it felt weird of not running in something officially sounding event.…

Day404 the big one / Rocky Raccoon 100
I really don’t know how I pulled off this one to run and finish the Rocky Raccoon 100. But yay, I did finish. It was the coolest race I did. Long but top of the line race support and community. People of Texas put up an amazing race. 1. The race is noobish friendly. I…

Day 254 race report “Centreville Marathon” I used my first virtual run I ran on March 21 for the Maine Coast Marathon. I didn’t post about it but I think on Tuesday, I got an email from the race organizer about the race being canceled. Not a surprise at all after getting so many of…

POT OF GOLD 10K
Day 234 / Race Report Not sure when is Shamrock Day but Happy Leprechaun! I am grateful to finally run it – the Pot of Gold 10K. It was a great day. Cold. I think it was 26/28 F (not sure about temp in Celcius, mayby -1 or -2) when we started. It got warmer…

JFK race report
Day 198 / First 50 Miler / Long Post It has been two years in the making. The race was within my expectation. I was (well) prepared and finished the race within my expected time. It was long but was not too hard. I was feeling great throughout the race. We had near perfect fall…
