19 Thunderwolves Indoor Marathon 01/23/11 Thunder Bay ON 4:18:05 Marathon 4       211 laps is a LOT of turns, ankles and feet sore, was harder than I thought, but a fun race, and was cool to go to Canada.

43 New Jersey Marathon 05/01/11 Long Branch NJ 4:52:03 Marathon 2396       Scenic race, great weather. I hated pretty much everything else about New Jersey. Rude people, traffic, gas attendants, tolls, overcrowding, etc. State #32!

45 Sunburst Marathon 06/05/10 South Bend IN 5:02:58 Marathon 325 611 409 62 What's with the freakin' red flag races! SUPER humid, could wring out my shorts by mile 6! Might have even been borderline sick, poops and litttle dizzy at mile 20'ish.
46 Run With The Horses 08/21/10 Green River WY 5:03:00 Marathon 260 50/ 70     Tough one. Lots of uphill first 6 miles (+2183 elevation change according to Garmin,at least it was out and back). Mile markers were off (at 25 Garmin said 26, and then 3/4th mile later was the 26 mile marker, and finish was right past that - very mentally frustrating). Roomed with Maniac #94, and ran the last half with #2261.
47 Country Music Marathon 04/25/09 Nashville TN 5:04:19 Marathon 10144 1948 1276 217 Very warm, 80'ish at finish.

50 Grand Island Marathon 08/01/10 Munising MI 5:08:25 Marathon 753 112/ 162     Very scenic, bear ran in front of me on path at mile 25! Tough race though, humid and hillier than I thought it would be.
51 U of Okoboji Marathon 07/17/10 Okoboji IA 5:09:02 Marathon 332 86/ 118     Toughest Marathon yet! 90's, hard to get enough liquid! Course was nice, but should be better marked, few people took a wrong turn and cut about a mile off the route. Aid stations were spaced a little far (especially in the heat!)
52 Pilot Mountain Payback Marathon 02/19/11 Pilot Mountain NC 5:11:09 Marathon 332 38/ 62     Very tough trail marathon! Moderate rolling hills entire course, except for the 1500 foot rocky climb to the top of Pilot Mountain. 3600 feet elevation gain/loss total! Scenic though...
53 Delaware Trail Marathon 04/30/11 Newark DE 5:21:44 Marathon 702       Oops! Wrong turn, added an extra 4 miles. Otherwise fun run, pretty mild for a trail. Nice small race, could see my car from the start line.
54 Pensacola Marathon 11/14/10 Pensacola FL 5:23:12 Marathon 176       Legs were trashed from Soldiers the day before. Ran with my friend Rich entire way on his 1st marathon. He would have kicked my butt if he didn't have IT band problems. State #24!
55 Rock 'n' Roll San Antonio 11/15/09 San Antonio TX 5:32:36 Marathon 13102 3485 2160 395 nasty head cold, hot, 80's, humid.
56 Madison (Montana) Marathon 07/25/10 Ennis MT 5:40:21 Marathon 323 20/ 26 16/ 22   Wow, Tough Marathon, but most scenic! 8500-9500 elevation throughout the course! Garmin said it was 3400 feet incline, 4000 feet descent over the course. High point of 9587 feet. I sure hope this will be my PW forever! Met some great maniacs, and had an awesome time!
57 North Face Endurance Challenge Madison 10/24/09 Madison WI 6:25:52 50 km 620 144 51 110 First Ultra, first trail, sore ankles, but finished it!
58 Long Cane 50k 05/29/11 Abbeville SC 7:25:00 50 km 92       OMFG HOT! 94 degrees, and humid. I took it easy, and enjoyed the scenery. Very nice trails, great organization. State #33 done.
