Vermont City Marathon

May 28, 1995 - Burlington, Vermont

I achieved my Boston Qualifier today at Vermont City in Burlington, Vermont.  I was able to dip under the age group setpoint of 3:10 with a 3:08:00.

At two-miles I was at 16:40, which was pretty far off my necessary 7:15 per mile to achieve the sub 3:10 finish time.  This means I ran 7:05 pace for the final 24.2-miles.

Dropped Dusty at Folks, getting ready for an attempt at qualifying for the 100th Boston Marathon.

Soapstone Mountain Half-Marathon Trail Race

Finished in 1:52:58, about 3-minutes slower than last year, but I picked up several places to end up 23rd or 24th overall or so.

It was a warm 80-degree day,  I walked up Soapstone the second time, as my time wasn't good enough to push it.
