My hardest and slowest marathon to date.

My chip time doesn't make me happy, but I worked through the pain, didn't quit and completed a marathon.

Physically and mentally the most challenging marathon I have done. 

Couldn't have done it without all the messages of support, cheering stations and friends out on the course pushing me on 💪🏼

Going to take care of this injury and make a comeback in the spring!

Sub 3:30... LET'S GO!!

I feel this. My last marathon was tough. Finally back in a place where I feel healthy again. You’ll get there friend!

Way to finish it. I find at times the slower than anticipated journeys can be more meaningful. Reveals deep character and tremendous resiliency. Hope you heal from this injury soon.
