2012 looking back...


2012 races

2012 was a busy year with 747 miles of racing (swim, cycle & run combined) which adds up to a little over 5 days of actual race time (124 hours in total). With a vacation in December the 2012 season is now officially over. My next run is scheduled for Feb 2013 and nothing more planned for the year with the possible exception of Chicago marathon in October 2013.
The year had a few highlights:
My first trail ultra (AR 50) in April.
My Marathon Personal Record of 3:29:42 (3 Hrs, 29 mins, 42 Secs) at the Chicago marathon.
My first DNF (Did Not Finish) ever...at Ironman Coeur d'Alene.
My first 100 mile endurance run at Run d'Amore in 29:29:29 (29hrs, 29 mins, 29 secs).
