The big day is nearly here! As we mentioned earlier this summer, Dr. Andersen will be participating in the St. George Marathon this Saturday. This race marks Dr. Andersen's 19th year running in this marathon. The St. George Marathon begins in the Pine Valley mountains and stretches across to Worthern Park in St. George. The marathon has been rated by Runner's World as one of the four "Marathons to Build a Vacation Around" in the World.
While Dr. Andersen has run over 30 marathons, he still has to complete extensive training for each competitive race. Last weekend, for example, he completed his last long run in Wellsville. He ended up running a bit over 22 miles, while keeping a pace of about 8:30.
Dr. Andersen always looks forward to meeting up with fellow runners and taking on the physical and mental challenges that come with running marathons. Be sure to stay tuned in the upcoming weeks as Dr. Andersen shares photos from the event! You can also watch the video below for more information about the St. George Marathon.
