At some point, I remember thinking, “Training for a marathon can’t be that hard—so many people do it!”… and holy hell, was I wrong The last 12 weeks have been absolutely insane—definitely full of highs and lows, pain, and frustration 👹 But this weekend was a good reminder of WHY running can be fun. I had a full plan for how I was going to race the runmalibu half marathon, but as soon as the gun went off, everything kind of went out the window (in a good way). The energy was amazing, the views were beautiful, and I just felt really happy and grateful to be alive. Thanks coach blue_benadum for all the support throughout this! ⚡️ 16 days until nycmarathon #thisfuckingsucks #workingholiday #running
