Charlottesville marathon

I decided to write up my race report 2 days after the race. It's kind of fitting since today is marathon Monday and I would love to been writing about my first Boston. Oh well, that may never happen. My 5th marathon was a great confidence booster after running Richmond back in November. I ran a 3:25:49. It was a new PR and the hilliest course I have ever run.

New Marathon Personal Record

Today 4/18/09, Charlottesville: A "nightmarishly hilly" course. I can now attest firsthand to the nightmare. Especially from mile 21 to 25! Those hills were miles long! Think Scottsview road up from Pony Pasture, and worse - now multiply it to be a mile and more long - over and over!



Still, I met my goal - it was a great weather day, cool at the start - and I felt pretty good early on - everything fell into place. I beat the 10 mile goal of 1:45 by over a minute, then picked up the… Continue
