Marathon #7 for this year is done! By the end of this year I’m wishing to have 13 half marathons as well as 9 full marathons run as well as done!!
I ran the Marine Corps Marathon today. Here’s my recap as well as random pics…
I ate my typical pre-race meal (at least it’s what I’m eating before running lately)… Oatmeal, Coffee as well as stimulate or Nuun.
Since I am running the new York City Marathon next weekend (and ran a full two weeks back as well as the hat technique last weekend) I understood my only option was to delight in this race. I made a bit bet with Hector – the person to take the very best photo wins.
We had a pr contest = photo Record
Getting trash bags prepared to wear!
Russ as well as I are young boy scouts though as well as came prepared with throw away gear. obviously lime eco-friendly is in for pre-race fashion this season… Be prepared!
Pre-race fun…
Coach Steve! He’s an outstanding running trainer for the Sole Runners – their ‘home race’ is the long beach Marathon. I don’t get to run with them much since I online a lil as well far best now however some day I’m going to be all about it.
I satisfied a great deal of visitors on the program today too! say thanks to you so much for stating ‘Hi!’. You men see my random running present over as well as over however I never get to ‘see’ you! I truly appreciate it. This is Katie
Before the begin sky divers came down best by the starting line with the world’s largest us Flag! I can’t even explain exactly how incredible that was…
Marathon Corps Marathon Race Recap
The race – The program was hillier than my research study suggested! (By research study I imply asking two people ‘is this a hilly course?’)
But it is the very best program in the united states thanks to all the armed service guy as well as women, landmarks, history as well as crowd support!
I believe after mile 3 it’s flat for a long time as well as you are truly distracted by all the sights as well as sounds. The one small unfavorable about this race is – since it’s so huge (30,000 runners?) it is extremely congested at the beginning. That’s typical for huge races, however this didn’t thin out up until mile 19! I believe it would be difficult to opt for time right here up until you lined up best in the front.
(I took some video, however requirement to see exactly how it came out. stay tuned.)
The last 6 miles get a bit tiring up until you get to Arlington national Cemetery. Then, as you get close to the end the crowds are LOUD as well as AWESOME.
When you cross the surface there are lines as well as lines of service guy as well as women waiting to shake your hand. as well as they present you with the medal as well as admire you. It’s awesome.

Marine Corps surface Time – I completed in 3:56:27 as well as it was no walk in the park.
(Read as: I got my butt kicked, however have to stay positive since I have one more race next weekend!)
Everything about the Marine Corps Marathon was very organized. This includes the post-race food lines. They provided you a bag, water, as well as then a very adorable box with your food.
The many brilliant part of the post-race offerings are the light jackets they provide out instead of area blankets. LOVE. Those foily blankets are so difficult to keep on your shoulders while you’re trying to take a sip of water (or do anything else). These objective Accomplished jackets are my new preferred thing.
Even though I was exhausted, I somehow handled to rush over to the totally free Fresh Watermelon booth to eat all the watermelon. I made a great Camiseta River Plate dent. #EatMoreWatermelon however not much more than me.
Overall thoughts: liked whatever about the Marine Corps Marathon. everybody was so gracious. The service members kept stating “thanks for coming out” as well as other positive things. I thought, they are the ones defending our country, I ought to be saying thanks to them!
But really, it was the best. I had a difficult race physically, however that is nothing compared to all the people who have died as well as been injured serving our country. God Bless them.
Question: Do you understand any type of vets?
Thank them for me. xoxo.
