My Indoor Marathon Record was broken a week ago. The new record is 2:53:53. I ran a 2:57:34 last year. When I first signed up for Zoom! Yah! Yah! last year, I did it because I thought it would be entertaining. Humorous, even. "I'm a world record holder..." I would say ...
Zoom Yah Yah Indoor Marathon
Race Recap In Pictures
Meet Matt. 2:43 marathoner at Chicago this fall. I can't imagine how long the race would have felt without him for the first 1:45. Matt and I taking a turn together early in the race. My mistake early on was trying to take these corners tight and fast (vs. ...
New World Record – 2:57:34 at Zoom! Yah! Yah! indoor marathon
What a great experience, made not by the run itself (which was a little painful, imagine that), but completely by the crowd that assembled to help get me there. I am truly blessed. Race recap (don't worry, I won't do it lap-by-lap!) I met Matt Eckberg, a 2:43 finisher at ...
Going for a world record!
What? Indoor Marathon World Record Attempt :) When? January 6th, 2013. 6:30 am (ouch) How? 150 laps on St. Olaf's indoor warm up track (USATF certified marathon). Switch directions every 30 minutes. Run under a 3:08 (which, knock on wood, *should* be ...
![Well, Grandmas marathon did not go as I hoped. My legs felt awful from the gun - which makes for a long 26.6 mile trek! 3:07 long, to be exact (goal was sub 2:50).

Despite that, the experience in Duluth is second to none, and made even more fun by all of my TNC Endurance athletes competing. I could gush about how proud I am of them all day! Their accomplishments outshine mine any day - I love my job as a coach 💕. Congrats to all, and like I’ve been known to say: let’s start scheming about those fall goals! [It’s a really good thing I love the process of marathon training. Seriously. Make training and all of the little things hard, make scheduling time for it tough, make my mind and body ache through training runs — there’s just something about the daily discipline it takes! A special kind of crazy?
