40 Big Island 03/20/11 Hilo HI 5:07:38 Marathon 90 120/ 180 77/ 104 10/ 11 Relatively cool and breezy. Due to illness and injury very little training Oct.2010 to event; ran to plan for the most part. Helped by two other MM "Daves" (#240, Dave Malone and #281 Dave England). #14 in this series(along with MMs DJ Blinn and Marie Kurmoto), pleased to finish.["chip time" is my Garmin].
39 Big Island International Marathon 03/21/10 Hilo HI 4:55:03 Marathon 97 135/ 195 93/ 124 10/ 14 Good running weather, just ran out of 'gas' at the halfway mark, or so. Happens...looking forward to the next one.

34 River City Marathon 04/19/09 Sacramento CA 4:33:49 Marathon 31 71/ 115 44/ 70 2/ 4 Flat, share course with cyclists, but no cars or dogs, etc.
33 Muir Woods Trail Marathon 04/11/09 Stinson Beach CA 5:50:53 Marathon 7005 58/ 65 38/ 41 2/ 4 The most challenging course I've ever been on; the scenically most beautiful course I've ever run. Treat this as a 'fast' hike and you'll survive. A number of us got lost several times, my Garmin says that added about 2.5 miles (35 min. or so) extra--my first 'ultra'?

30 Kilauea Volcano Wilderness 07/26/08 Volcano HI 5:00:03 Marathon 63 64/ 123 51/ 92 17/ 28 First half of course new and easier, but still a tough marathon. "Chip time" is Garmin. Official race time 5:00:03. Course also at least 0.5 miles long. The big 3-0. Maniacs from Florida and the troupers from Honolulu.
29 Big Island 03/16/08 Hilo HI 4:37:09 Marathon 11 140/ 231 99/ 146 8/ 15 I beat Marie, Cowman, Bo and DJ--Stan runs away from me. My PR on the course ('chip' time is my Garmin). This race makes me a 'Maniac'!

27 Honolulu 12/09/07 Honolulu HI 5:18:59 Marathon 2043 7452/ 20693 4809/ 10732 384/ 913 Lost 16 pounds in month preceding race...no strength. BIBRs on the 'road' again.
26 Maui 09/16/07   HI 5:04:31 Marathon 750 574/ 1019 315/ 513 30/ 43 Hot, but stay well-hydrated. Kathy 'crews'.

24 Big Island 03/17/07 Hilo HI 5:48:46 Marathon 55 189/ 249 113/ 144 16/ 19 Worst time on course to-date--just 'flat' right from the start--stunk it out.

14 Big Sur International Marathon 04/29/01   CA 5:07:49 Marathon 2660 2101/ 2609 1331/ 1564 207/ 234 My second state! Beautiful day on a great course--hills in 2nd half really 'flattened' me. Doug beat me by 40+ min.

11 Volcano Wilderness Mar. 07/24/99   HI 5:35:53 Marathon 91 80/ 139 61/ 93 27/ 35 No easier the second time around--not nearly as well-trained as '98.

8 Volcano Wilderness Marathon 07/25/98   HI   Marathon         Records lost. I think about 5:05; very tough course. Had done lots of training miles there with Darrell and Fred. Good time, Fred tossed out of ambulance at finish in favor of more 'needy' runner.
