1st Annual Moby Dick Marathons
February 19th, 1995 - Lanesborough, Massachusetts

The 1st Moby Dick Marathons were held.  This was my 5th marathon, with the 28-miles completed in 5:01:00.

It seemed like a good idea, but there are reasons why the event didn't last, especially as a 28 or 30 miler.  Bitter cold, difficult, no aid,  February on Greylock....  seems like there would be many additional "whys".

This run was really special for me, it cemented my friendship with Paul.  We ran the entire event together, and began to dream up our snowshoe series.  Paul and I ended up roaming the woods together for a very long time, we see the same things in nature.

This day had temperature's near 50-degrees!  We completed the first 15-miles in 2:20, and the second 13-miles in 2:41.  What a day -
