## Caption

This isn’t very “mikailadancer” of me, but I just wanted to share! After only a month and a half of “training”, all my dance injuries coming back in full force, only running 14 miles max, being sick with a cough and congestion(don’t worry it’s going on 4 weeks, I’m not contagious, I just have a shat immune system and can’t get over colds), and absolutely hating running more than ANYTHING…. I just ran and finished my first FULL marathon!! 26.2 miles!!! For this to be my first race… im clearly psycho. But I’m so incredibly proud of myself, I was in so much pain, talked myself out of panicking, I was a MESS, but I DID IT!!! My mental is the only thing that keeps me going, cause I’ll be damned if I didn’t finish this race😂. I had 2 minutes to spare lol!! Now I’m gonna go lay down for the next week because LAWDDD my body has NEVER hurt this bad😭😭🏃🏻‍♀️ (my first and LAST full marathon🤣) I’m so proud to be a part of the “less than 1% of the world” to complete a marathon! 🥹 I hate running, but I did this to prove to myself that I’m capable of anything! You guys can accomplish anything you want! (Shoutout to everyone who told me my timeline was impossible, and to my doctor who was very worried about my knees, WE DID IT❤️) #ventura #marathon #running #venturamarathon #run
