Had the opportunity of running the NYC marathon! One of the toughest races I’ve ever experienced. Straight heat, humidity and crazy incline! Despite the pain and tiredness, the energy from the crowd enabled me to keep pushing to the finish line. Mile 22 was an emotional moment for me. I saw my mom from a distance as she cheered on. I could see the excitement and the tears coming down! That moment gave me all the motivation I needed to finish strong. There is no greater feeling in the world. ❤️❤️ Huge THANK YOU to everyone for all the support! Shout out to the gang! @dyckmanrunclub Couldn’t do this without ya!! The city was LIT!!! 🔥🔥 Can’t wait to run it back! #tcsnycmarathon
