Road Trip Las Vegas to Denver Re-Cap

Welcome to Arizona

Welcome to Arizona

Due to a medical condition my doctor did not like me to fly to my marathon in Las Vegas, however I was cleared to run the marathon at the same time and so I decided to drive. Las Vegas is roughly 800 miles away from my house. I had driven out to Vegas on Friday, ran the race on Sunday and now had to make it back to Denver on Monday. I was scheduled to be back at work on Tuesday and on top of that I wanted to try to return the rental car on Monday and not on Tuesday morning. This would save me a lot of time and effort on Tuesday morning, but also put the pressure on me because the rental car station would close at 6.00 PM Mountain Time. [Read more…]

My Upcoming Racing Schedule

My Race Schedule for the rest of 2013

My Race Schedule for the rest of 2013

I just finished my first official race by running the Las Vegas Rock ‘N’ Roll Marathon this last Sunday and suddenly I am talking about my race schedule. I guess I caught more than just a running bug. I’ve been running for years, but never entered a race and the race and training experience has changed my mind a little bit. So, I signed up for two more races for this year. One is not really a race, but I guess doing an official Turkey Trot counts. It actually really counts because we do it as a family and my 8 year old son is totally excited that he will get a race chip and that the time counts. [Read more…]

Las Vegas Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon 2013 Re-Cap

My Final Ranking

My Final Ranking

I did it. I ran the full marathon at the 2013 Las Vegas Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon. The day started out beautifully. The weather forecast showed perfect weather for running and that’s how this day turned out to be. Blue skies all day long and temperatures were in the upper 60s. In the morning I drove towards the Las Vegas Boulevard to check out where I would park my car. I wanted to park somewhere in the middle between the Start Line and the Finish Line and the Hotel and Casino “Monte Carlo” was it. I parked the car, fond a slot machine that liked me at least a little bit and spend some time relaxing inside the casino. [Read more…]

Sycamore Canyon 100K Review

It is Sunday, February 25, 2018 and I am sitting at the kitchen table a bit tired, but in great spirits after yesterday’s race. I ran and completed my very first 100K in 14 hrs. and 53 minutes. It was a long day and there were quite a few dark spots between mile 26 and […]
