Full marathon participants completed sixteen miles today.
The course consisted of completing the trail loop for five miles, running down to the Betzwood picnic area to complete four miles, then our final two miles occurred on a service road back to the main parking lot. The remaining mileage was completed in between running to the different areas of the park.
The knee injury has improved. Applying ice after the short runs this week was very helpful!
Next Sunday, we return to Kelly Drive to run twelve miles!

About Me
- Stephen
- I became involved with Team In Training during the Spring 2007 season by training for the New Jersey Marathon in Long Branch, New Jersey. Prior races include several 5K and 10K events, and one half marathon. Training for an endurance event takes a lot of commitment, courage, and vision. Looking back on my casual running experience for the past two decades, I never imagined training for a marathon! Through Team In Training, I found a great training program, developed new friendships, and made a significant impact by raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma from taking more lives. I am continually inspired by our featured team heroes and the personal stories from friends, family, and teammates that were shared during my initial fundraising for the cause. Please enjoy reading the past stories of my experience.
