On a mostly overcast day in San Diego, I completed my fifth full marathon. It was easily my slowest 26.2-mile effort, requiring me over five hours to reach the finish line. I accomplished my primary goal of completing the race. It remains unclear whether a certain earlier post-run snack helped or hindered my effort. Regardless, if ever I aim for marathons in all fifty states, that’s three down, forty-seven to go. At my current pace it would take over ten full days of racing alone to complete that goal!
Meanwhile, in another time zone, another friend set a personal best in a full marathon, just four weeks after setting a personal best in a half marathon we ran together. Congrats, Ben!
And then, because I received a free ticket to SeaWorld® from the race, and the race ended in the SeaWorld® parking lot, I visited Shamu.
