Here I will try to post all of my running events (maybe some non-running events). I was intermittently running for ~1 year prior and I only seriously ran and did events starting in Jan 2022. My current goal is to qualify for the Boston marathon.

My Personal Records:

5 Miles: 35:40.04

10K: 40:11

10 Miles: 1:16:57

Half-Marathon: 1:27:43

Marathon: 3:37:16

Races

Race	Location	Date	Distance	Time	Results	My goal for the race	Comments on the race/course
Run for the Water 2021	Austin, Tx	Nov 7, 2021	10 miles	1:16:57	Official Results	first ever race
Thundercloud Subs Turkey Trot 2021	Austin, Tx	Nov 25, 2021	5 miles	35:40.04	Official Results	Under 40 minutes	crowded start, no waves (walkers + runners at same time)
3M Half Marathon 2022	Austin, Tx	Jan 23, 2022	Half-marathon (13.1 miles)	1:35:02	Official Results	complete first half-marathon in sub 2-hours	Pretty happy with this time especially since I paced fairly well
Ascension Seton Austin Marathon 2022	Austin, Tx	Feb 20, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)	3:37:16	Official Results	complete first marathon in sub 4-hours
Run the Alamo	San Antonio, Tx	March 6, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)	3:43:05	Official Results	first out of city race, sub 3:30	I got hit with a pretty warm day ~20 degrees and felt extremely dehydrated. Course had a lot of double backing. Didn’t hit my goal but by mile 14 I had a feeling it was not happening. Hot and humid day that I’m just happy I finished.
Head for Cure 5K	Austin, Tx	Mar 27, 2022	5km	17:53	Official Results	sub 20 minutes	My bib malfunctioned and didn’t record me crossing at 17:53. I spoke to the person behind the system and it somehow didn’t track me crossing the finish line. It got corrected to 17:18 (which isn’t correct either since I placed behind 5th place). Overall not a serious race since it was a charity race but it was challenging doing my first serious 5k. Also the course ran a little short (like 4.85km not 5km so it isn’t TRULY a 5k)
Cap10K	Austin, Tx	April 10, 2022	10km	40:11	Official Results	sub 45 minutes, I expect it to be a crowded, hilly, and warm-ish race.	Honestly pretty happy with this. Sub 40 is probably possible (11 seconds off), but I’m not great with shorter races.
OKC Marathon 2022	OKC, OK	April 24, 2022	Half-marathon (13.1 miles)	1:27:43	Official Results	first out of state race, sub 1:33	Really happy with this since there was a tornado warning the night before and the morning of it cleared up and temperature was pretty cool. This was about as good as I was going to get with my current training.
HEB Sunshine Run	Austin, Tx	May 1, 2022	10km	40:21	Official Results	sub 43	Pretty humid day. I got a cramp at mile 5 but I made it through. Not a PR but I’m just happy I finished.
Take the Bridge	Austin, Tx	May 5, 2022	~4miles?	27:35	Official Results	Not sure what to expect from this.	This race had some of the most stacked entrants ever. Top 15 was all killers. Super fun to compete against the best.
Bank of America Chicago 13.1	Chicago, IL	June 5, 2022	Half-marathon (13.1 miles)
Lemonade Dash 10K	Houston, Tx	June 11, 2022	10km
SF Marathon	SF, CA	July 24, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)
Toronto Waterfront Marathon	Toronto, Ontario, Canada	October 16, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)			first out of country race
NYC Marathon	NYC, NY	Nov 6, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)			first world major (by lottery)
California International Marathon	Sacramento, CA	Dec 6, 2022	Marathon (26.2 miles)			qualify for Boston?
3M Half Marathon 2023	Austin, Tx	Jan 22, 2023	Half-marathon (13.1 miles)
