On the plane headed home. Took me 5:23 to finish. What an ass kicker of a course! Never experienced elevation change like that except maybe that trail race at Camp Eagle. Still, I felt I ran a smarter race than either of the first two marathons. I was conservative at the beginning and it allowed me to finish strong. I was pretty much passing people the whole race and a LOT of people at the end. It was an amazing experience. Think I'll do it again when I'm 50 pounds lighter.

Almost go time
Met the bus at 4:15am and rode an hour down to the staging area. Forgot my food, but they had plenty down here. Jeff Galloway is up on the podium talking through race strategy. Pretty stoked!

More shots from Camp Eagle
Actually, now that I think about it, I still haven't written anything about my trip. Needless to say, it was awesome. I brought home a bronze medal! Although I was guaranteed one as one of only three male registrants, I felt it was well deserved as I ran a strong race and came in 4th overall...out of 8. Anyhoo...
Eatin tacos in the sun
Missed my window to run this morning so Myles, the kids, and I walked to Taco Shack. Brandon spilled his chocolate milk all over the patio but we did allright otherwise.

Not sure if its showing up in my phone photo, but my balcony looks down on the pool and out towards the strip. Swank!
