North Dakota | Fargo Marathon

November 10, 2021

Sometimes you just need rest. And sometimes when you don’t listen to your body, it just forces the rest upon you. After the Q50 in Louisiana, my body was ready for a rest and with an inflamed post tib tendon diagnosis I ended up in physical therapy. I spent most of the spring resting and … More North Dakota | Fargo Marathon

Mississippi | The Blues

May 15, 2020

“Didn’t we already go down to Jackson?” This was Kaela’s response when I told her about the first race I was planning for 2020. If you remember from my Nashville race report, the Mississippi Blues marathon was supposed to be completed in 2017. The only problem was that upwards of a ¼ inch of ice … More Mississippi | The Blues

Maryland | Hashawha Hills 50k

March 29, 2018

After a great finish to 2017 with a couple of world major marathons, I had big intentions for 2018. I planned a packed schedule that would stretch my limits and also get a good number of states completed as well. This year started just as last year planning to run Mississippi Blues Marathon. If you … More Maryland | Hashawha Hills 50k

New York | TCS NYC Marathon

February 23, 2018

After 3 years of entering the lottery, I was finally accepted into the New York City Marathon! Let me catch you up on the busy summer/fall of 2017 leading up to what has become my favorite marathon to date.   After Grandma’s Marathon I took a little time off running to try and get my … More New York | TCS NYC Marathon

Minnesota | A little run to Grandma’s

November 23, 2017

The day before the Chicago marathon, Kaela and I were sitting on Mike’s couch browsing through the “Race Guide” they hand out to all participants. It has some information about the race but its mostly an opportunity for sponsors and other races to spread their messages. It must have worked pretty well on me because … More Minnesota | A little run to Grandma’s

Tennessee | Hot and Humid Hills of Nashville

July 22, 2017

Well the story of how I ended up at the St. Jude’s Rock and Roll Nashville marathon is quite an interesting one. A few years ago, when I was looking for different races to complete, this race popped up as a fun race in TN. Not being a big country music fan, I decided to … More Tennessee | Hot and Humid Hills of Nashville

Missouri | Sneaky hills of St Louis

May 29, 2017

There are just some races that I have wanted to run after reading an article about them or seeing a booth at an expo. The Go! St Louis marathon was exactly one of those. I don’t remember where I first heard about it, but it has been on my “to do” list for a few … More Missouri | Sneaky hills of St Louis

South Carolina | Cold and windy Myrtle Beach

April 15, 2017

I finally made it to the first race of 2017! This was supposed to happen back in the beginning of January but mother nature had different plans in Jackson, Mississippi. I was registered to run the Mississippi Blues marathon, but due to abnormally icy weather, the race was cancelled at 9pm the night before the … More South Carolina | Cold and windy Myrtle Beach

Chicago | Bank of America Chicago Marathon

February 11, 2017

Back in my post about the Big Sur Marathon in California, I mentioned that when I was looking to start this 50 states journey, I had researched all the must do marathons in the US. The Chicago Marathon was another on that list but again it had to come in the form of some “luck” … More Chicago | Bank of America Chicago Marathon
