🏃‍♀️ NYC Marathon 2025 🌈 Still on Cloud 9! 🗽💙

On Monday, 11/3, I woke up with sore legs (really sore 😅) but a heart full of joy, pride, and deep gratitude. I did it — I ran another New York City Marathon, and it was absolutely iconic!

This year is especially meaningful — it marks 20 years since my husband’s passing. Through those years of grief, depression, and anxiety, I discovered running, and it truly saved me. It carried me through the ups and downs, gave me strength when I needed it most, and reminded me to stay positive no matter what.

This also marks my 15th year of running, and NYC gave me the most perfect way to celebrate that milestone. From Staten Island to Central Park, the crowds, the music, the weather, the streets overflowing with humanity — everything was pure magic. The moment my kids surprised me on the course completely melted my heart. ❤️

I feel so privileged and grateful to be able to run through this incredible city. I love New York, and past weekend, New York truly loved me back. 🗽✨
