2011 Cape Cod Marathon Experience
This was supposed to be a stress free marathon as I was not really going for a specific time, my training was not great, and I was looking forward to a scenic course in Falmouth. My training suffered in the last 6 weeks as I suffered with runners knee. I ended up keeping most of my long runs on weekends but drastically cut my schedule during the week to 1 run. It worked as I was 100% healthy for...
Off to the cape cod marathon in a driving snowstorm. This will be an interesting run!

2011 Boston Marathon Experience
My training for the marathon was much different than any other marathon I have run. I essentially did 2 runs during the week; One with speed intervals totaling 5 miles and one tempo run of 5 to 7 miles. Then every Sunday morning I did a long run of 15 to 20 miles. I did 20 miles run 3 times with the last one 2 weeks prior to the race. My legs never had that tired feeling and did not really need...

2010 Detroit Marathon Experience
My goal was to break 3:20:59 (essentially 7:40 per mile) and qualify for Boston. The start was in the dark under the lights. Very organized, quick walk from the hotel, and not overcrowded. I was in the second of ten or so waves so I had a good place. Found the 3:20 pace group right away. Leader was a very small woman who had just run Chicago a week earlier and Olympic qualifier caliber....
Wasting time in Detroit is tough we you can’t drink,eat bad or walk much. Lot of quality time in the courtyard Marriott in my future
