77 days since my first marathon. 77 days until my second.

There’s probably something poetic I could say here about how much can change in 154 days.

But mostly I’m wondering how “I’d like to run a marathon once” turned into “cool, which one are we doing next?” alarmingly quickly 😂

Somewhere between that first finish line and now, running stopped being something I was trying to prove I could do and became something I genuinely, ridiculously love.

So here we go again.

77 days to Den Haag🏃🏻‍♀️ @marathonthehague

Halfway between finish lines 🏁

Sudden sharp pains in the soles of your feet. Stiff quads. Achille’s tendon feeling just a bit stiffer than normal… those are called ‘niggles’ #runningniggles #runningjoke #marathontraining #wordoftheday by @liftyourhead.run

These little wrist gremlins have made life easy, and at the same time a little more complicated #garmin #wordoftheday #runningjoke #marathontraining by @liftyourhead.run

Do you, or someone you know, show signs of taperitis? 💭 Symptoms include excessive pace checking, hip flexor stretching, fuel obsessing, sickness avoiding, ruminating thoughts about race day pacing strategy #marathontraining #marathonthehague #runnersofinstagram #liftyourhead by @liftyourhead.run

This training block has… not always gone as expected 😅 but in 26 days, I’ll be standing at the starting line of my second ever marathon— the inaugural @marathonthehague — and I am excited!! #marathontraining #runnersofinstagram #liftyourhead by @liftyourhead.run

Recovery does not come overnight, unfortunately 🥹 and Garmin is kinda judgy, TBH #garmin #marathontraining #runningjoke #runwithme by @liftyourhead.run
