Race Resume
idea from Lindsay at Chasing the Kenyans
Objective
I have a long term goal to run a marathon in all 50 states. As of June 2019, I have completed 21 states.
For several years, I had an objective to qualify for the New York City Marathon, but I qualified in Oct 2011. After two years of mishaps, I ran it in November 2014.
I’d like to break 3 hours in the marathon, but I had knee surgery several months after my 3:09:52 PR in 2012 and haven’t gotten anywhere near that since.
I am Marathon Maniac #194
