I ran the Camarillo Marathon today as well as I can’t choose what is the flattest marathon program in southern California – Camarillo or the Ventura Marathon? Both of them are very flat! like that.
Marathon Race Don’ts…
Let’s back up truly quick since I likewise have to share my 2 major stops working before the race:

1. My arm has been randomly hurting so I got a massage yesterday afternoon. It was a very last minute walk-in kinda thing.
2. I didn’t have my typical go-to carb-loading food (rice with tons of soy sauce). however I figured I just needed to eat ALL THE CARBS. So, I had a wonderful potato with dinner.
And this is why the #1 guideline of race day is (say it with me):
Never try anything new on race day!
Well, now we can add “Never try anything new the night before race day.”
1a.) My arms as well as shoulders ached the whole second half of the race.
2a.) I had some tummy issues. Thankfully Denny’s saved the day on the method to the race. as well as fortunately I didn’t have to stop during the race. however yeah, my tummy hurt.
Okay, back up once again to 3:30am this morning.
This is your regional Monican:
All my race day stuff was set out except my bib. fortunately the race enables you to pick up your race # on race morning since it’s a far drive!
I got to the race with lots of time to pick up the bib, hit the restrooms, take a photo as well as get to the starting line.
My race:
A.) liked the course. It’s flat as well as this year it wasn’t as windy as last year. (This program has a credibility for being windy.)
B.) I couldn’t get my body in the game. It took me up until mile 12 to get in a rhythm.
C.) I like the out as well as back parts since it assists me to keep going when I tell other runners “good job” and/or they tell me something positive. It’s a little race as well so I feel like it’s good to see somebody twice as well as wave.
Camarillo Marathon: 3:56:43
And I even ran into Donna as well as Ian after the race! I satisfied them in LB back in the day (read: last year) so we’re friends now (read: not sure if they understand they’re my friends).
Ian took this photo of me crossing the surface line!
First marathon of 2015 done as well as done! I am pleased to cross it off the list.
Then, I headed directly to my fam’s home for a shower as well as food. really post-shower I put my legs up for a few.
And for the rest of the day I was in the kitchen. I essentially just pulled up a chair to the fridge…
Question: Did you have a treat today? What was it?
