Run Wins for 2017!
My run win for the year is the Boston Marathon but for reasons beyond the race.
The Boston Marathon has been a dream for me for a long time. And I really want to share some personal stuff that made it challenging and emotional for me beyond running. Check out the links below for more info and background.
Boston Marathon video updates on YouTube <- these are the vlogs and videos on my training for the Boston Marathon and the fun Hyland’s Challenges.
In this video I talk about how I almost wanted to back out of running the Boston Marathon. I didn’t go into detail but talk about the struggle.

Posts with Ben… letting Ben cook // wedding // Ben is better – 2011 when Ben was cleaning Vegas because he’s nice to animals like that.
Then in a sudden turn of events (okay 3 years later!) Vegas scratched his ear when he got scared.
Santa Rosa Marathon – this is where I tried to BQ and came up a little slow 3:37:23 when my goal was 3:34:55.
But it’s a good race and I learned a lot.
OC Marathon – surprise PR
Ventura Marathon – day before
That time I went to therapy 3 times in 1 week…

Just catching up after being away. Listened to this podcast and sending hugs your way! I’m sure it was HARD to get started in Boston but you were definitely brave. Maybe that should be your word for 2018!

Loved this podcast! I love how you and out of all of that with a positive. And I’m going to borrow your “be brave” mantra for when I feel anxious or intimidated or don’t think I can do things. My favorite mantra is “I can do hard things” so I’m excited to add yours to that.
