2006 Rock & Roll Marathon

My first real running event, and the reason for creating this site, was the 2006 PF Changs Rock and Roll Marathon, where I ran the half-marathon in 2:23:08. As a member of TEAM-D, I also raised $1800 for the American Diabetes Association

I started out by saying “I HATE RUNNING” but now, it might be, “I Sorta of Like Running” as I hope to continue.

The training is recorded in blog entries from late September 2005 to the post race summary on January 16, 2006:

My totals for this period included:

  • Total Miles Running 203.9
  • Total Miles Biked 154.6
  • Total Weight Loss 4.0 (Goal=20)
  • Total Funds Raised $1805 (Goal=$1500)

And I wish to greatly thnak my generous sponsors:

  • Alan L (first in line!)
