2019 California International Marathon (CIM) A quick shout out to local boy, Scott Lankford. Scott competed in the California International Marathon (CIM) today, running an impressive 2:22:43! This was only the second time that he has run a marathon! CIM is known to be a fast and consistent marathon course which is typically stacked with professional marathoners trying to achieve a qualifying mark for the U.S. Olympic Trials. Scott missed the Olympic Trials mark by just u...nder 3:00 minutes. In addition to his preparations for this marathon, Scott is a husband, a parent and holds down a full time job! Nice job, kid! Not bad for a part-time runner...

Another classic performance... Enjoy
