#26andchange

There are lots of folks who are a lot worse off than me, however I’d be lying if I said today wasn’t disappointing. But whether it’s April, or September, or next year - I’m still coming for that fifth star. It’s just more time to train for a PR in (hopefully) the first-ever Fall @bostonmarathon. #HarlemToHeartbreak #26andchange (at Long Island City) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Oqc9NJZCLrloAJxMHQhSPu-qLS5IBGh8tDms0/?igshid=1fgef3unwu4dy

408 miles + 112 days = 4:27:42. To absolutely destroying that race. To having a plan and sticking to it. To (almost) negative splitting. To preparation, and to execution. To one of the best days of my life. But most of all, to the people - near and far - who helped me, supported me, cheered for me, texted me, GroupMe’d me, tracked me (from Baltimore), ran in foreign countries with me, coined hashtags for me, made signs for me, made shirts for me, traveled to see me, planned surprises for me, ran in random parks on the side of the road in Ohio with me, took photos for me, took videos for me, ran races with me (in at least 9 different states), offered advice to me, sacrificed for me, challenged me, inspired me, moved me, believed in me - there’s just one thing to say: Mission Fucking Accomplished. #letsdothedamnthing #justdidthedamnthing #26andchange #hardworkpaysoff #HWPO #thehayisinthebarn #sweatequity #bestday #feelingallthefeelings #WWBD #eightoneeight #PRSunday (at TCS New York City Marathon)
