LOCATION: Millersylvania State Park, near Olympia, Washington
My friend Tim Lawson, my mom, my sister, and I drove two hours to Millersylvan
ia State Park in Washington to do the Valentine Marathon. My mom and sister did the half marathon. Tim and I did the marathon. The weather was very good, it was overcast and cool with a slight chance of rain (it never rained). We took the early start and we off running about 9am (regular start 10am). We ran about 15 miles together before I took off. I remember Tim was having a few issues and wanted to slow it down. I remember feeling pretty good and wanted to run ahead. So with Tim permission (not that I needed it), I continued on and ran pretty nice race. It was one of Bob Green’s races and as usual is an out-and-back course, which has little support on country roads. They are uneventful races and are more like training runs than a race, but at least you get plenty of post-race food. I ended up running a 3:53:20, which wasn’t great, but seemed to be a good run. My friend Tim ran a 4:15.
