31 Marshall 11/07/10 Huntington WV 4:40:07 Marathon         Loved this one. The run ends in the end zone of Marshall. And, if you want, they will give you a football to go the last 100 with. I asked, purchased my own which they gave to me so I could run the last 100 AND take my football home - just like in the NFL when the ball carier so choses! Yea, this one was awesome.

59 Feeling Stuffed 11/27/09 Huntington Beach CA 5:01 Marathon          
60 Hogeye 04/11/10 Fayetteville AR 5:05:53 Marathon         I can't say enough about this one. ALL GOOD. The volunteers were awesome - much better than for races much larger in size. In fact one of the best of all marathons I have run!!! It was another run put on by runners for runners. (The early start was wonderful.) The website suggests it is in the top 10 toughest road marathons. I question that. It was hilly, but in stages that worked for me. They let runners know that water stops would be every mile. Mostly so, and at all water stops they had Gatorade!!! And most also had GU! I was in disbelief. And they never ran out of anything. For a small marathon they definitely had it right. The price for the event was well worth it – I believe (after the run), the two hot dogs that I had were the best in the world. And they were pouring free beer! All in all a great experience and I would recommend this one for all that need to add numbers or the state!
61 Seattle RNR 06/26/10 Seattle WA 5:07:21 Marathon         Another Ho Hum run.
62 Colfax 05/17/09 Denver CO 5:08:24 Marathon         I now remember why they call it the Mile High City! I sucked (thin air)!
63 Land Between the Lakes 03/13/10 Grand Rivers KY 5:12:03 Marathon         Another AWESOME trail run. Fewer hills (than Tulsa two weeks ago), did not fall, did not lose trail, and friendly runners. Another run put on by runners for runners!!! Aid stations were well stocked and had plently of volunteers. Food was available after the run. The did NOT run out of anything. Race Director (Steve) was very helpful for my specific need. Again, another great event!
64 Palos Verdes 05/20/06 Palos Verdes CA 5:12:46 Marathon         Ran to avoid two long training runs.
65 OC 01/07/07 Irvine CA 5:12:54 Marathon          
66 Rock n Roll 06/27/09 Seattle WA 5:13:29 Marathon         Great little run. Ran with daughter (Lindsey) for the first 9 miles (she was doing the half). We stopped often to take pictures with family and to talk. Between Mile 11 and 13 the course narrows way down and it was a challenge to run with the half marathoners. Caught up to MK and ran with him for the last 5 miles. Saw several maniacs that I had met on previous runs. It was great to see so much yellow.
67 Indianapolis 10/16/10 Indianapolis IN 5:14:43 Marathon          
68 Richmond 11/14/09 Richmond VA 5:16 Marathon          
69 Central States 05/10/09 Ames IA 5:17:59 Marathon         Great little run. Best part was a good friend bringing beer to us after we were through.
70 OC 01/08/06 Irvine CA 5:18:30 Marathon          
71 Los Angeles 03/21/10 Los Angeles CA 5:19:18 Marathon         Earliest that I have ever had to get up in the morning for a marathon - 0145. And then it took another hour to go 3.5 miles after the run to get to the freeway. Makes one consider if LA is really worth the effort.
72 Long Beach 10/10/04 Long Beach CA 5:19:50 Marathon          
73 Rehoboth Seashore 12/11/10 Rehoboth Beach DE 5:20:54 Marathon

75 New Hampshire 10/02/10 Bristol NH 5:26:59 Marathon          
76 New York City 11/01/09 New York NY 5:27 Marathon         NYC was awesome. And have signed up again for next year. Which now that I understand what it is all about, will be even better than this year.
77 First Flight 01/16/10 Warner Robins GA 5:27:07 Marathon          
78 Mayor's Marathon 06/18/11 Anchorage AK 5:31:21 Marathon         All was great - weather, volunteers, course, and awesome metal. Race Management sucked BIG TIME. if you don't have a problem, no problem. But if you do, no help - you are on your own!
79 Woodstock 09/25/10 Pinckney MI 5:36:16 Marathon         It is a real trail marathon! Pleanty of people fell (including me twice). But in the end it was a fun day. Except for the trip back to Chicago for a flight Saturday evening.
80 Palos Verdes 05/17/08 Palos Verdes CA 5:38:11 Marathon

83 Vermont City 05/30/10 Burlington VT 5:43:29 Marathon         The weather was 10° cooler than expected. Great! Considering that it is Vermont, the course was flatter than expected. Good day for a nice stroll.
84 Illinois 04/30/11 Champaign IL 5:43:47 Marathon          
85 OC 05/02/10 Costa Mesa CA 5:43:48 Marathon

87 Georgia 03/20/11 Atlanta GA 5:45:24 Marathon          
88 Death Valley 12/05/09 Death Valley CA 5:46:44 Marathon          
89 Run with the Horses 08/22/09 Green River WY 5:50:10 Marathon         Way off in the distance, I saw one herd of horses. But on the road, there was a contant reminder that horses were present (somewhere). It was great to see several fellow maniacs. The other high point was an impressive uphill climb at the start and it just kept going. And by the time I was coming back, the uphill still appeared to be ahead of me! Great day with very hot weather at the end (90+). And how could I forget the altitude of 6,000 +? It sucks sometimes training at 25 feet above sea level!
90 First Light 01/10/10 Mobile AL 5:51:08 Marathon          
91 Rock n Roll 01/11/04 Phoenix AZ 5:52:25 Marathon         Ran with Alan.

100 Olathe 04/10/10 Olathe KS 6:04:37 Marathon         Great run with Tim "I got to get more PRs". Fun day until at mile 24.5 they said the course would close in 8.5 minutes! That sucked. (I think the ultimate low point of any run that I have ever done!)
101 Foot Traffic Flat 07/04/09 Portland OR 6:05:08 Marathon         I think it is time to start training again! The running crowd was very friendly and the supports (limited number that were there) were great.

114 Maui Oceanfront 01/23/11 Lahina HI 6:36:59 Marathon         Bus caused us to be about 10 minutes late to the start. The temp at the end was a cool 89°F! It was nice to see Terry and Darwin finish their 50! Great going.

118 Seabrook Lucky Trail Marathon 03/15/09 Seabrook TX 6:44:23 Marathon         One of the most runner friendly courses around. Four loops with super friendly runners. The run is for runners put on by runners! And the metal is awesome. Ran with a fellow maniac.
119 Long Beach 10/09/11 Long Beach CA 6:44:25 Marathon          
120 Hope Sight Mission 05/23/10 South El Monte CA 6:46:46 Marathon         A nice walk in the park!
121 LA 03/19/06 Los Angeles CA 6:49:35 Marathon         Long Story (Ran with Alan / Doc [71] / Jim [74])!
122 Brookings 05/14/11 Brookings SD 6:49:57 Marathon         Race director was GREAT - volunteers were AWESOME!
123 Philadelphia 11/21/10 Philadelphia PA 6:53:52 Marathon         By FAR, these port-a-potties were the WORST of any race in recent memory! (Thank GOODNESS that I am a guy!)
124 Disney 01/09/11 Orlando FL 6:54:59 Marathon

127 Fargo 05/09/09 Fargo ND 6:57:31 Marathon         How Far will you Go? Best part was a hat swap and a Bloody Mary late on the second loop. Great people turn out to support and one of the best marathons to graze (pick up food from spectators).
128 Thanksgiving Weekend 11/28/09 Long Beach CA 6:59 Marathon          
129 Missoula 07/10/11 Missoula MT 7:10:56 Marathon         Ran with daughter on her first marathon! REMATCH FROM 10/6/2002 - SEE BELOW MY NUMBER 11
130 Bear Lake 06/12/09 Garden City ID 7:12:50 Marathon         This one was a fun run and well supported for the 30 +/- marathoners that participated. The only exaggeration was that the finish was "just around the next bend - almost there" NOT.
131 LA 05/25/09 Los Angeles CA 7:12:53 Marathon         Another hot day but I did feel better than at Nanny Goat two days before. I think I need to start training more than once a week (at yet another marathon).
132 Run the Dove 07/15/12 Rancho Santa Margareta CA 7:37:51 Marathon         Good Thing - No Mountain Lions!!!
133 Bear Lake 06/13/09 Garden City UT 7:45:46 Marathon         Nobody suggested where the finish was - GOOD. First run where the mile markers counted down. I liked it at the start - suggesting I was at mile 25! The altitude took its toll. Great to run the last 10 miles with Lauri and Bob.
134 Larry Yeagle Trail Marathon 03/14/09 Ruston LA 9:28:06 Marathon         An interesting run for those that like a short course. Walked entire way with an injured runner. Was a great opportunity to get better acquainted. No rain; great day. Outrageously wonderful view!
135 Flatlanders 12 Hour 09/06/09 Fenton MO 12:00:00 36.4 mi          
136 Nanny Goat 12 Hour 05/23/09 Riverside CA 12:00:00 36 mi         It was too hot for me. Left before 12 hours were up so I could pick up LA bib in downtown LA before the expo closed. Good call!
