The Marathon Fueling Blueprint

The carb loading and race-day nutrition system that took me from the couch to 3:18 at Hartford in 2026, a Boston-qualifying finish at age 51.

Latest marathon: Hartford 2026, 3:18 at 7:34/mi, a Boston qualifying time at age 51. Next goal: 3:10 at the NYC Marathon in 2027.

Meeting the qualifying standard does not guarantee Boston entry.
