Marathons: By the Numbers

By Blaine Moore on Friday, April 29th, 2011 | No Comments

I saw this infographic recently and had to share it…more information about the state of Marathoning in one handy reference than you thought you needed. And yes, I know that that isn’t a picture of Haile Gebreselassie…I didn’t make the image, I’m just sharing it:

2011 Gansett Marathon

By Blaine Moore on Tuesday, April 26th, 2011 | No Comments

A couple of weeks ago I ran the first Gansett Marathon, which was the second annual race as it was moved from last year’s location in Exeter, Rhode Island to Naragansett to accommodate a larger field. This year’s race was just as well organized as last year’s was, although my own race didn’t go nearly [...]

2011 Boston Marathon Race Results

By Blaine Moore on Wednesday, April 20th, 2011 | No Comments

Patriot’s Day means the Boston Marathon here in New England, when countless throngs line the streets between Hopkinton and Beantown and cheer on thousands of runners as they make their way along. I’ve run Boston twice, and I honestly think that I prefer watching the race over running it. It’s a great experience, and the [...]

By Blaine Moore on Tuesday, April 12th, 2011 | 4 Comments

Last year, I laid out my plans about a week before the inaugural Exeter Marathon. I ran a Magic Mile and used Jeff Galloway’s charts to convert that mile time into a marathon time, and talked about my run/walk strategy I was planning on running. Fast forward a year, and it is now 2011 and [...]

NJ Ultra Festival – Marathon

By Blaine Moore on Monday, March 28th, 2011 | 2 Comments

Since a 100 mile race wasn’t in the cards given that I hadn’t done the training I had wanted to over the previous 5 months, I got to run a marathon instead with a friend of mine. The last time we had run a marathon together had been in 2006, so we were overdue to [...]

The Boston Marathon has announced the new qualifying standards, which will go into effect in 2013. Basically, runners will need to run at least 5 minutes and 59 seconds faster than the current standards in order to BQ. (The standards are all being made 5 minutes faster, and they are also going to stop allowing [...]

2011 NYC Marathon Guaranteed Entry – How It Works

Entry into the 2011 New York City Marathon lottery process opened on January 10 this year, and the application period will remain open until April 19 of 2011. That seems a bit early to me given that the race is not until November 6, but those are the dates that they have put forth. If [...]
