Boston Race Report and LA Tri #1



For anyone with any desire to run the Boston Marathon, it's worth every bit of work you have to put in to get there. You can find my Boston race report here. Here are my 5k splits (searchable results for the marathon are here):

5k: 23:01
10k: 46:03
15k: 1:08:54
20k: 1:32:05
Half: 1:37:01
25k: 1:53:31
30k: 2:15:14
35k: 2:38:17
40k: 3:00:43
Finish: 3:10:14

I feel pretty good about my race considering the training that went into it (and the fact that I was hit by a car in Feb.). I'm still hoping to break 3-hrs in the Grandma's Marathon in June.


LA Tri #1 at Bonelli Park is happening now! It is already very warm and the air is filled with smoke from the Chantry fire that started yesterday afternoon. As far as I know, no one has been injured in the fire, and there has not been any property damage. Let's hope things stay that way. Results here.
John Meier - Championship #1 - 1:21:31 (1st in Clydesdale Div.)
Emily McDowell - Championship #1 - 1:48:05 (Wrong turn on the bike!)
Scott Hersey - Championship #1 - 1:10:41 (2nd in Age Grp., 6th Overall)
Jeremy Emken - Championship #1 - 1:35:33
