15 Ironman Texas Hopefuls Finish USA Fit Marathon and Half Marathon

     Fifteen (15) Memorial Hermann Ironman Texas hopefuls - nine men and six women - competed at Sunday's USA Fit Marathon and Half Marathon in Sugar Land, Texas under cool, wet and, at times, blustery conditions.
     Seven finished the marathon, including Sugar Land's Adrian Arroyos, 37, and Maggie Kattan, 39, who ran together as Kattan finished 11th overall among all women. The duo will be two of the 12 who will be looking for their first Ironman finish in May.
     Fulshear's Cory Gholson, 38, posted a sub 4-hour marathon finish of 3:57:24 as he prepares for his first Ironman finish since Ironman Florida in 2009 (12:43:05).
     Eight completed the half marathon with Sugar Land's Rob Botard, 40, leading all Ironman Texas registrants with a seventh-place overall time of 1:29:30. He'll be working from a 5:54 performance last summer at Ironman 70.3 Buffalo Springs Lake.
     Porter's Jeffrey Irvin, 35, was 15th overall in 1:34:09.
     Katy's Dave Molthen, 46, and Pearland's Robin Campbell, 47, were the other half marathon finishers on Sunday who have previous Ironman finishes. Molthen last finished the 2009 Ironman Coeur d'Alene in 12:10:31 - his third career finish - while Campbell pushed up against the 11-hour windows with a 12:03:03 time at the 2009 Ironman Florida.
