🏃🏻‍♀️Chicago Marathon 2019 conquered w/ @lowberries 🏃🏼‍♀️on 10/13/19!!! Sending a special thank you note to all. Mentally & physically this race was plagued with more excruciating pain than the last 2 marathons combined. I didn’t care about the time & wasn’t scared of fatigue because it comes with the territory, but I went in unsure if my leg would let me finish more than 2 miles as it was doing for a couple weeks prior. Pain progressively got worse from mile 4 on, ran till around 12-13 miles, run/walk for every mile after until even running a few steps cramped up my IT band every time, at 20 miles the finish line seemed possible, and with .2 left to go pain ceased for an all out power sprint to the finish which felt great to speed through the shoot. I could have walked off the course at any point (and probably should have) but so much support from fam & friends, with extra special people @jtownktown @utangard @lowberries there in person that got me through to the end. Thanks to everyone for the encouragement and pre-race concern for further injury. It didn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated despite my stubbornness to make it to the end! #lovemypeople #didntgiveup #chicagomarathon #finisher #chimarathon #teamOGB #teamorigamibunny #mychicagomarathon #medalmonday #highfive #thingsiseewhilerunning #thingsiseewhilewalking #run #runner #running #runwalk #perseverance (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3po85TpmsI/?igshid=n75iq411l61h

My first Spartan Race:Spartan Super. It was no joke 8-10 miles with 24-29 obstacles. The only time I was smiling during the race was the finish line and I almost got a cramp jumping in this picture, lol. I did it! 😭💪🏼😂🙏🏼 #didntgiveup #SpartanRaceSuper #regrettingmylifeduringthisrace #everythinghurts #firsttimer (at Toro Park)
