I 3D printed this and painted it for my son. I think it turned out pretty good. He loves it.

Still can't believe my marathon time. 2h 57 minutes. At the start of the year my goal time was under 4h 30m and then I started training and was like "nah I can sub 3hrs". That was by far the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. I didn't start running consistently until about this time last year.

Final run around marathon pace before the race. Taking it a little easier the rest of the week. I can't believe how easy 6:35/mile pace feels compared to a year so. Probably doing 6:42/mile pace at the marathon. Next year though. Goal is a 6:30/mile paced marathon.

This speed would have been inconceivable last year. One of my primary goals for this year was a sub 20 minute 5k and I just did double that distance at a faster pace. I nearly beat my 5k record in this 10k run.

Those 27 minutes were rough considering all the runs and workout sessions this week. About 10 seconds faster than my marathon pace for my upcoming race. I think with a proper taper it should be doable. My legs were really heavy at the start of this run and I managed to do it.

5k race in the morning wasn't enough lol. Fairly hot and humid so parts of this was really hard. I did most of it slow but 2 miles at around 6m 20s per mile pace.

Did a 5k race today at an airport with my son. 2 miles in they have a 100m section they also time and give awards for. My son won the sprint for his age bracket with 14 seconds. I was first for my age bracket and 2nd overall with 11.03s! We were flying!

I'm so proud of my son competing in a tournament for @stepmaniax.com today at only 10 years old. He won 2 matches so far! He's tied for 16th so tomorrow morning he is doing a playoff with someone to decide who moves onto top 16.

Went for my first post marathon short run at an easy pace. Felt pretty good. Quads still a little tight but bounced back at faster than the first marathon.

Did a 30 minute block at 6:45 per mile and it felt nice and easy. Feeling like my work since the last marathon is paying off. 3 weeks left until I try and run a sub 3h marathon.
