Its that time of year again for me...

Im running the Houston Marathon. This will be my 4th year in a row to run it. Last years time was 2:38:17. My goal for this year is 2:25 - 2:30. I've lost about 10 lbs since last years race...so hopefully being lighter will translate into moving faster. Race day weather forecast is between 40-55 degrees..with a slight chance of rain. Wish me luck. See everyone after the race. The race is sunday, january 14th.

P.S. For those who want to track me live online during the race my race number: 25123

Dont forget to drink a laxative i hear it can make you run faster.. just make sure sombodys in a van with a porter loo on route... :

2:38? Holy carp! That's close enough to see the Kenyan win the race! Good Luck!

My nephew is on West Point's marathon team. He's told me horror stories about the body's recovery from marathons.

I'll have to ask him what his best time is in a marathon. I'm sure it depends on the terrain and weather eh?

hey DB, i hope you're talking about a half-marathon!!! 2h38mn is a VERY good time. good luck anyway. I wish i could run that distance (i can't do better than 10 kms)
