Nine (9) Run Mardi Gras/Surfside in 7 Days
I - pictured with Seven Hills Running Club president Ken Johnson in the picture to the right - wasn't the only crazy one in the bunch!
50 States Marathon Club member Steve Boone, 56, of Humble (who also completed his 300th marathon in Houston nearly a month ago) was the only one of the nine (9) runners to improve their time -- by nearly 5 minutes -- from the Mardi Gras Marathon to the Surfside Beach Marathon. It was Boone's 5th marathon of the year.
Here are the cumulative times of the nine (9) runners who did both marathons:
7:21:01 - Michael Pentland, 43, Houston (3:34:04 at Mardi Gras; 3:46:57 at Surfside)
7:54:24 - Royce Sayer, 64, Oak Ridge, TN (3:36:33; 4:17:51)
8:36:43 - Steve Boone, 56, Humble (4:19:16; 4:14:27) -- 302nd career marathon
10:49:07 - Steven Stinemetz, 48, Houston (5:06:28; 5:42:39)
10:52:21 - C.E. Goudeau, 52, Denham Springs, LA (5:10:00; 5:42:21)
10:53:32 - Jon Walk, 39, Spring (5:13:37; 5:39:55)
11:27:01 - Lou Wilson, 69, The Woodlands (5:38:07; 5:48:54)
12:40:43 - Paula Boone, 39, Humble (5:51:55; 6:48:48) -- 164th career marathon
12:42:04 - Laurence Macon, 61, San Antonio (5:53:16; 6:48:48) -- 233rd career marathon
While Boone was the only runner to improve their time, Wilson, Pentland and Walk were the next best as far as having times slip the least. Wilson's declined by 10:47, Pentland's by 12:53 and Walk's by 26:18. (Wilson's other two marathon times in 2006 were 5:49:31 in Kingwood and 5:48:50 at Chevron Houston.)
Of the runners aforementioned, Macon (who ran 79 marathons in 2005) has already completed 9 marathons so far this year. Paula Boone and Wilson have finished four (4) each while Walk, Pentland and Stinemetz have done three (3) apiece.
