Lunatics I Follow
Bataan Memorial Death March
White Sands, NM
I ran this in the “civilian” light division meaning no 35 lb ruck. Others have described the logistics and weight of the event so I won’t repeat all that. The …
Little Rock Marathon
Little Rock, AR
Leading up to this race my expectations were high. I read that this was the best race in Arkansas and one of the best races in the US. Disappointed in …
The Cowtown
Fort Worth, TX

Chicago, IL

New York City Marathon
Staten Island, NY
It is very apparent why this race is one of the World Majors. It is one of the most difficult, but rewarding courses I have ever run. There is crowd …
