LOCATION: Sunriver, Oregon
This was my first and continues to be a must do for me. Our family once again
rented a house in Sunriver this year. I was feeling quite confident about doing this race. It was a route that I’ve done so many times. It was a little warm, but being the high desert very cold nights. I remember wondering if I should or shouldn’t run with a singlet or s short sleeve shirt under it. Since the weather at the start was in the 40’s I decided to wear the short sleeve shirt and the singlet. I should have toughed it out.
I don’t remember too much about this race. I remember that it was a pretty good run. I ended up running the first half in 1:48, which is about normal for me in a marathon. But my second half was slower, which is typical for this race. As the day goes on things really warm up, and there are sections of the course that are exposed. My second half was 1:51 and I ended up running a 3:38, which was about what I expected. The next day my uncle and I teamed up to do the olympic duathlon. A fun weekend!
