literally can’t get over how insane that was and how HARD IT WAS. that was not the outcome I expected or how I wanted any of it to go, but I am so grateful for my friends and family who came out to get me through every single mile of the race. I could not have done it without my people 🩵 I was so close to just giving up and not completing the race because of the pain I was feeling, the mental struggles, the unexpected circumstances that occurred before the start of the race, and just how hot it was. I did it, and despite how disappointed I was in how it all went and my finishing time I am just so proud of myself and feel so blessed 💫
