Got out to Lake Hefner bright and early to pick up my packet..met Danny at the pick up and we did a warm-up..

We got back and lined up and started on time. My plan was to try and go out a bit harder with the wind to my back and try and make up for the time I would loose going into the wind. Aaron and some younger kid went with me till mile #2 and I had it down around 5:30's with a nice tail wind. I kept it there till we got over on the other side of the lake and slowed a bit I had about a 30sec lead at the turn aroun. I was wanting to try and hit 1/2 way at around 43-44 min. and I was real close to being where I wanted...I took 2 waters after the 1/2 and was nursing a gu. I got up on the dam and planned on hitting the water stop there but a crowd of runners doing the 15k made that impossible. Just after that I turned the dreaded corner on the dam and went right into about a 16-18 mph wind and was dodging runners. With a little more than 3miles to go Aaron had reeled me in and blew by me at a nice pace. I did about as much as I could do to catch him but he was a lot fresher than I was.

I was going for the all time master record in OK which is currently 1:28:38 and fell a bit short of it. I did however pick up the single age record by a couple of seconds and hit about a 4 min PR for the distance. 

Had a great time hanging out and chatting with a bunch of folks.

Congrats on your PR Jason:) You have good consistency turning fast times. Something to give us masters here in Utah to shoot for.

Great race! You were very close to the record and minus the wind, that would've been yours. Awesome work.

Thanks Steve and Riley.

Nice work continuing to take down those records. Now you "just" need to hold this pace for another hour :-) I've lost track. Is there another marathon this spring?

Ha no doubt Jason.

I'm heading down to the Woodlands marathon Saturday and doin the Oklahoma memorial marathon in April. With the weather conditions So far I'm not looking to do anything real special.
