Marty Horan

Some people train with speedwork.
Some people train with hills.
I train by eating a sandwich called The #ManchesterRoadRace .
Last year, I snagged 4th place in my age group, so clearly my training system WORKS! 😂🏃‍♂️🥪

Rest assured friends & neighbors, our nation’s finest are patrolling the streets of idyllic downtown #Bethesda armed & ready to racial profile our immigrant housecleaners!🤬 What an idiotic waste of our taxpayer dollars!💸👎 #resist #NoKings #NoDictators #FightFacism #HandsOff #CommonSense #Democracy

Kicked off #PonceBaseball Fall season w/ a little rust & a lot of heart. We took the loss, but had flashes of #baseball glory—especially from 87-yr-old Bill Lear. The REAL highlight? My ride in Bill’s 1963 #DodgePolara ‼️ If I’m half as cool as Bill in my 80s, I’ll count it as a win!⚾️🚗🙌 #SkyBaseball

Everyone’s favorite number is 22 on Jim Palmer jersey night at #birdland ⚾️🧡🖤‼️ #LetsGoOs #baseball #Baltimore #Orioles @orioles.com #SkyBaseball #MLB #BaseballLife

Ground control to #mcrrc Race Director “Major Tom” Young and “co-pilot” Danny Talmage with pre-race announcements before 3-2-1 countdown and liftoff at #EasternCounty8k race‼️💫🚀💫

MVA fun with a friend after this morning’s #MCRRC #EasternCounty8K race… I reserved lucky number 2️⃣2️⃣ for a potential future Maryland license plate, just in case I ever decide to get a car again.✌️✌️ Also, please remember that EVERYTHING that’s posted on the interwebs is 💯 percent factual‼️🤣🚙

Whirlwind #Boston trip which included time for family, friends & culture! #VanGogh exhibit of Roulin Family Portraits at #mfaBoston was spectacular & is a #MustSee before it closes 9/7/25! 💛🎨🖼️🌻 Also, I was tempted, but I did NOT buy the $600 VG skateboard collection in the gift shop‼️🤣🛹 #ArtSky #art

#LoveDishonorMarryDieCherishPerish by #DavidRakoff was the most unique book that our #HampdenRowBookClub has read! A clever, bittersweet “novel” (think Dr Seuss adult version) shortly before the author’s death. On-topic wines were “Serial” Cabernet & “Substance” Sauvignon Blanc.📚🍷😊 #SkyBook #BookSky

Even though I no longer run marathons, I still enjoy the wonderful camaraderie of this 5:30am (sharp!) Thursday #mcrrc #marathon training group and socializing (of course!) afterward at #Panera!☕️😋

Beautiful memorial service for #MCRRC 2006 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient John Noble.🌟
John’s legacy w/ MCRRC’s FTM program was a model for our club training programs & a testament to his superb leadership & passion. Rest in peace & long may you #run, John!💔 @mcrrc.bsky.social #RunSky #SkyRun

No trail #running shoes needed today for my speedy #mcrrcRacingTeam teammates at the #mcrrc #MatthewHensonTrail5k 🙌 which should truly be renamed to the… “Matthew Henson-It’s Definitely NOT Really A Trail 5K!”🤣🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♂️💨☀️ #MoCoRunning #RunnersLife @mcrrc.bsky.social #BlueSkyRunning #RunSky #SkyRun #runners

The delightful unseasonably cool temps have continued & this early morning #mcrrc #marathon (mostly) training group continues to brighten up my Thurs mornings!☀️ Today was wear #yellow day!💛😁

After yesterday’s challenging XC race, I needed an easy recovery run tonight. These #mcrrc #runners along with unseasonably cool summer temps in #Gaithersburg, were just what the doctor ordered!😊💙 @mcrrc.bsky.social #Kentlands #Lakelands #BlueSkyRunning #RunSky #running #RunMD #MoCoRunning #SkyRun
