A few months ago, I came two and a half minutes short of my goal to run a marathon under three hours. Since then, I've trained well, rested well through the taper, and had beautiful weather to race a hilly course. For the 2022 LA Marathon, I really went for it.

Thanks to ASICS for providing me a bib to race on and to Floris Gierman and his coach, Coach Jimmy Dean, for all their support with pacing.

Thanks for watching! Leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!

The charity runner of the week is Wilfredo Aguirre, who is running the Crescent City Classic to raise money for Team Covenant House. I've donated $100 of my own money and I hope you'll consider donating even just the minimum amount to support a fellow runner
