Alex Lightman

Age: 46

Gender: Male

Santa Monica, California, USA

Ran Cross-Country and Track (1-mile and 2-mile) in 9th through 12th grade, plus wrestling in 8th-10th grade, as well as 10 mile and marathon road races. Best mile was 4:30 and 2-mile 9:20. Then didn't do anything athletic until 2008, when I started exercising to lose weight. Started running road races with Hollywood Dreamz 5K in Griffith Park, and run 2 races a month on average. Aiming to get my 10K time down to 36 minutes (from 72 minutes!) within a year, and my marathon time from 6 hours to 3 hours within a year (June 2008 to June 2009).

Ran Xterra Point Mugu. First time on course, 18k, or 11.16 miles. Time was 2:15:30 on the clock when I finished. My right knee hurt, and I ended up limping the entire way, and walking about 40% of the course. Nice finishing medal.
