Expert 1207 Liberty Lake, WA | Subject: RE: Spokane Marathon Welcome to BT. I'm planning on running the Spokane Marathon on Sunday. I've done it a few times before. I like this race but it is very easy to go out too fast and then have to pay for it at the end. |

Master 1472 | Subject: RE: Spokane Marathon I will be over for the half. After 3 months of no real (read: any) training a full would have been suicide. The half will just be torture. I have never done this race but am familiar with the course. Keep mile 22 in the back of your mind. Little hill to deal with there. Have a great race and welcome to BT! |

Extreme Veteran 408 Spokane, Wa | Subject: RE: Spokane Marathon Thanks for the welcome and the advice. I know all about Doomsday hill having ran Bloomsday plenty of times. I imagine it's a little easier at mile 5 than 22 though. |

Extreme Veteran 408 Spokane, Wa | Subject: RE: Spokane Marathon Well If finished and I have to say I had a lot of fun. I really took up running at the beginning of July after signing up for IMCDA. I didn't know what to expect coming into the race. The farthest training run I had done was 15 miles and It took 2:06. I thought a good goal would be about 4:15 to 4:20. However, I felt really good the whole race and finished in 3:22. I got second in my age group! I couldn't have been happier with the final results. |
