Calgary Marathon 2009

This was the first year wheelchairs and handcycles where allowed in the marathon and this being my home city it was a great time to compete in my second marathon.

It started off on great a little downhill section I lead everyone until the hill climb going up Shaganappi trail were I got caught by Glenn a local wheelchair racer. I chased him down and caught him just after the the ride back down the hill, from there I lead the race all the way to the finish.

I finished in just over 2:14 slower then my last marathon in Las Vegas at 2:02 but is was a harder course.
