Running / Rocket City Marathon won by a first-time marathon runner« Last post by rocketgirl on December 19, 2025, 06:29:00 PM »I can't run anymore, and I didn't volunteer (most of my weather-appropriate gear is too small anymore) this year, but cool story re my local marathon.

Weather was right around freezing with 15mph winds. It sucked. I have friends who volunteered and the runners couldn't open their own gu at the aid stations (neither could the volunteers, so scissors) because their hands were too cold. 53

Was actually pretty warm out too, was 40°F by the time I got home. 55

I was fighting a cold for about two weeks and then it turned into a sinus infection so now I'm taking antibiotics. 56

I will say I like how it spit out the training plan. 4 phases including a taper at the end. It feels really doable. Sent from my SM-S721W using Tapatalk 57

Back was a little sore from yesterday's slip and fall, and right shin was a little tight. So it was slower than usual, along with lots of ice patches on the secondary roads. Hip spasm on me just once jumping a snow bank.
Skipped running all the way home, just 2K easy from the subway station. 60

Trying to get my legs ready for one more fast 5K to end the season. |
