Guess My Time To Win!

This Friday, I am running the Tel Aviv Marathon. Just like when I ran the Dubai Marathon, I am having another giveaway to reward some person for guessing the time closest to my actual finishing time. Last time, I had a specific goal in mind and it was fun to see all the different guesses that came in. This time, it really is a wildcard. This marathon is being done solely as a review race and I do not have any time expectations or goals. If I had a different marathon in Dubai, I might be better situated for this but I took a bit of time off from running after that to allow my body to recover from a grueling training program. So, your guess is as good as mine!

Guess My Time!

You do not need to know anything about running to participate in this giveaway – just take a guess in hours and minutes. To give everyone an even chance, here is some pertinent information:

• A marathon is a distance of 26.2 miles
• My slowest marathon (trail marathon) was 5 hours and 11 minutes
• My fastest marathon (St. George – road marathon) was 3 hours and 35 minutes
• My last marathon (Dubai) went badly and I did it in 3:52
• Good chance for high temps and humidity (I do not do well in humidity!)
• I have done minimal running since my last marathon 5 weeks ago.

What am I giving away? For the winner of the giveaway, I will be giving away one $25 Amazon Gift Card.

Giveaway Details:

• I will give a prize to the person who ends up with the closest guess to my actual time.

• You do not need to give seconds but in the case of a tie, the winner will be chosen based on how close the guess was in seconds.
• A valid entry would look something like this – 3:35 or 3:35:43
