🤩Chicago Marathon Weekend Day ☝🏻🩵❤️
What a time to be alive. Forever grateful for the people who made this day (and the whole weekend) so incredibly special. Meeting new friends, catching up with old ones, and realizing I was about to become a world major marathoner. Being part of ACS Team DetermiNation and the HIGHEST fundraising team for the weekend was pretty darn special too (shoutout to the runDisney Villains Take Chicago AGAIN!). Unreal that this was only the first day.

A medal Monday for the ages. I am not sure I’ve ever felt more proud. I pushed through literal hell to get to that finish line- but I did it. I am a World Marathon Major finisher. 

Was yesterday the race I hoped it would be? Absolutely not. My body decided to go against me starting at about mile 6 and continue being quite disrespectful through the rest of the race. I had to walk the final 8 miles. I got passed by the pace car. I was SO SICK the majority of the race. 

But I finished. I have that medal around my neck. I crossed the time mat at the finish like. I’m an official @wmmajors @chimarathon finisher. And I have never felt more proud of myself. 

The people I was surrounded by this weekend made it even more special. Family. Friends- new and old. Runners I had only just met and ones I met in the corrals. And wow the city of Chicago. You are a gift. It’s true what they say- the city carries you. I’ve never experienced the crowd support that I did in Chicago. I hugged strangers. I pet dogs. I high fived little kids and grown men. I cried, I laughed, I danced, I sang, I panicked, and I rose above the struggle and the pain to cross that finish line running, with a smile on my face just like @thebrookhartproject told me to. 

Chicago was good to me. I’m going home with a full heart and more memories than I could possibly carry. Chicago- I’ll be back 🤟🏻
