Seattle Marathon (2005)

We had a great Marathon and we MADE IT!!!!

Doug's time was amazing and he did it in 3:24:21

Bruce's time was 4:20:02 ... he made it to the 20 mile mark doing pretty well and was on pace for a 4 hour run, but after he got there the old knees were hurting quite a bit (he ended up mostly walking the last 6 miles). Even so, it was a great event and we had a super time (all 14,000 of us).Doug's roommate Sean ran as well and the three of us did it faster than we were expecting.

Doug: 3:24:21 (half marathon split: 1:41:36)

Sean: 3:51:43 (half marathon split: 1:50:26)

Bruce: 4:20:02 (half marathon split: 1:50:49)

We could have never done it so well, without the help of Tina. She met us along the run several times ... plus dropped us off and picked us up.

 

 

 

On November 5th ... we did an 18 mile run in Seattle on the course. Then we went to the vegetarian restaurant for lunch. It rained the whole time, so it was a good practice session.

Here we are after our 18 mile run!

The marathon is just 3 weeks away!!!!
