Marathons Part III

Of the 52 completed marathons under my belt, seven were on the road.  It began in 1992 in Lowell, Massachusetts.  I remember that being two loops, on a decently nice fall day in late October.  I finished, my folks drove out to support my efforts, and with a 3:35 or so, I felt like a marathoner.  The ability to complete the 26.2-miles that day gave me confidence to attempt anything else I could think of.

The history of my seven completed road marathons is as follows:

1992       Bay State Marathon, Lowell, MA

1993       1st Bridgeport Marathon, Bridgeport, CT

1994       1st Hartford Marathon, Hartford, CT

1995       Vermont City, Burlington, VT

1995       2nd Hartford Marathon, Hartford, CT

1996       Fat Ass Fifty, North Adams, MA

1996       100th Boston Marathon, Boston, MA

As previously written, April of 1996 was the end of running road marathons.
