I remember last year approaching the finish line, kissing my hands, and looking to the sky thanking God for the successful completion of the Chicago Marathon + setting a new PR at the time 2:47:15.
I came into the chimarathon a little uncertain that I would break my personal record. The uncertainty came from the training block not being as smooth as my previous one. I had to take a bit of time off due to a foot injury that happened non-running related. I slipped on an algae rock on the beach after finishing Falmouth Road Race and it took a deep cut out my big toe leaving me on the sidelines for over two weeks. However, I knew all the hard work I put into the training leading up to that moment, now it was all about going out there and executing. ๐๐๐
Who wouldโve ever thought this photo would be used for the 45th Anniversary of the Chicago Marathon. 4+5 = 9, my line number in Alpha. The universe makes way for you when you operate in a space of purpose + passion. ๐ค๐พ
