Real-time posting from Lake Geneva
As I mentioned in the previous post, I hope to take pictures as while I am on course at the Lake Geneva Marathon. The comments below each picture will likely be an indication of my total time after the most recently-completed mile. I'll have the mile number followed by several zeros and the time in hours, minutes, and seconds.
For example, if you see "70000010934", this means that at the completion of mile 7, my time is 1:09:34 (1 hour, 9 minutes, and 34 seconds). I'm sorry if this is confusing -- I just know that it's not always easy to hit buttons on a cell phone while running at about six miles per hour. :)
Even though the weather is forecast to be rainy and a little cold (highs around 49 degrees F), I'm still excited about the race. I've never run anywhere near Lake Geneva before, so I think it will be fun.

Photo Blogging is Here!
Hi everybody!
Thanks to modern technology, you'll be getting more than pace updates at the Lake Geneva Marathon. Every two miles or so, you will get a pace update and an ON-COURSE PHOTO. Be sure to check it out on Saturday -- the race starts at 8:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time!Saturday, May 06, 2006
On the horizon
I just updated my race list with three events in which I hope to be participating:
Lake Geneva Marathon - May 13 - this is now less than a week away. The course is hilly, so I don't plan to push the four-hour mark. More details on this race soon -- I haven't decided yet if I'm going to send real-time pace updates to the blog or not.
Lighthouse Run - June 17 - I hope to better last year's performance, and maybe finishing in less than 80 minutes.
Quad-City Times Bix 7M - July 29 - This seven-miler is a definite maybe at this point in time.
