    5k - 24:15 (7:49 min/mile pace) 

    10k - 51:47 (8:16 min/mile pace)

    15k -1:18:09 (8:24 min/mile pace)

    13.1 - 1:53:12 (8:39 min/mile pace)

     26:2 - 4:14:55 (9:44 min/mile)

      So instead of dodging paper cups from water and Powerade stations during a race, runners now will dodge sports drink spit from their fellow competitors.

        Apparently so.... if this catches on, but I swear if I get spat on by someone spitting their gatorade or whatever, I might just go off dang it... it is one thing to have water spat on you, but something nasty and sticky is gross.

              As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.
