California International Marathon (CIM) is a reputably fast and fun race that many runners mark on their calendars as their "A" race of the year. mamaxruns, a #RADrabbit and also a runcim262 ambassador, is no stranger to this race: she ran it as her first marathon 20 years ago on a whim when she was in university. In her first running, she started strong before hitting the wall hard.

"It was a tough race, but I kept returning for another CIM," Minji reflected.

"After taking a decade off while raising 2 runner kids, I’ve matured more and embraced a beginner’s mindset from my running community and best friend who recently started running."

20 years later, Minji is proudly returning to her first ever marathon course as a masters #motherrunner. In preparation, she's been hitting some milestones along the way, like reaching her peak weekly mileage (70 miles a week!), and finding meaning in every step towards the Start line.

"I run with purpose- every run is completed for a reason. It’s hard to balance work, family and training, but with determination, anything is possible."

We look forward to cheering on Minji and many other rabbits toeing the line at CIM in just a few short weeks!
