#7 - Capitol City Marathon 2006
DATE: Sunday, May 21, 2006
LOCATION: Olympia, Washington
This was my first race in which I ran a pretty steady pace. I didn't know much about this race going into it. My mom, dad and sister all joined me. We stayed at a hotel room pretty close to the starting area. My dad stayed in the hotel room, while my mom and sisters did the half marathon. I remember the weather was quite nice. I started out running a comfortable pace, and managed to run pretty good. I finished with a time of 3:31:48, which was very good for me at the time (second fasted marathon at that time). I remember it was a bit crazy at the finish area, but I managed to find my mom and sister and we drove back home that day. I remember thinking to myself at that time, "this marathon thing, is really fun". I think that was when I really fell in love with the marathon.
