Ogden Marathon

I ran in the Ogden Marathon this weekend. It was my third one, so I thought it would go much smoother than it did. Turns out I trained too hard too close to the race, and consequently became very sore after mile 8. My pain threshold was put to the test the last 6 miles. My (not) record breaking time was 3:59:04, a 9:07 min/mile pace. Not as fast as St. George, but not even close to my disaster at Deseret News.

Glad it's over.

Ouch, that sucks. I have seriously DE-Trained over the last year. But I hope to get back into form and run the Las Vegas Marathon in December. But, I am thinking I might just do the Half and work on getting faster.

Good luck with you next Marathon.
