Pikes Peak Marathon

 
 
 
 I had a slower ascent time today than yesterday, but I got "crazy legs" for the downhill portion of the race, passing about 20 runners while getting passed by no one. I managed to run down the mountain in 1hr45min thereby sneaking below 5 hours for the marathon: 4:56.

Matt Carpenter won with an age group record (40-44) in both the ascent and the marathon. He ran the ascent in about 2:10 and the marathon in 3:33. Posted by Picasa
