It didn’t go how I planned, but it was an experience I’ll never forget. I lost my salt sticks at mile 2, dealt with numbness and cramping from mile 5, and by mile 16 my body was fighting me. At the end crazy how the world connects us and got to finish alongside @runstrongdon who I built a friendship with on social media.
Thank you to everyone who supported me from scratch to Chicago. The race is over, but the consistency isn’t. Daily work continues, and I’m glad to keep holding us accountable together.
Happy to answer any questions or lessons learned in the comments.

Awesome crowd but tough run! Sometimes, we had to adjust based on what we are up against especially Mother Nature. She wins all the time lol
