California International Marathon

treadmill miles

A couple firsts for this marathon:

• first time I have run a marathon and kept every mile below 6:20 pace (4:00/km) in a marathon
• I let my body run the show… pride is great… but during a marathon it can wreck you
• I fell in and out of love with running throughout the race 😂 …usually it’s just the “out of love” part. 

This was a really cool experience and one I won’t forget. It gave me a lot of personal closure with the marathon that I really needed. I’m not going to write an essay, but after Ottawa, I was forcing myself to train for this one. Very glad it’s over!

Huge thanks to my family for pushing me through this training cycle  and to everyone who gives kudos and leaves comments. It’s always so appreciated. ❤️
