#mysecondmarathon

Pounded out a solo 20 this morning ... not sure how many toenails are gonna be left by bedtime and my right knee no longer wants to bend and has requested a leave of absence from all further runs 😂😜. BUT if necessary I am *nearly* certain I could slog out another 6.2 in 3 weeks. The body is capable of a lot more than we realize if our minds let us believe it and the battery in our headphone last long enough. And side note, those kinda ugly Bluetooth headphone sunglasses are the best $16.88 I have ever spend on running gear. #amazonsmiles for the win! #GarminRunning #marathonmom #mysecondmarathon #SundayLongRun

Everything hurts and I am dying. 16 miles - the farthest I have run in more 10 years. Father Time is a jerk but my Sunday running buddies rock! Thanks for a fine first 9 @corilou1979 & Susan Litwiller! #marathonmom #mysecondmarathon #runningcrew #trueshirt

When your usual running playlist just doesn't fit your mood - Amazon Music to the rescue with some 90s grunge bands. #amazonprimeperks #90smusic #90steenager #6milesdone #9weeksandcounting #mysecondmarathon #marathonmom

I've been asked if I am still really going to do that marathon I committed to around New Years time. So let me just clear that up - Yes, I am. And while I am not sure that doing this will "heal" me, I know not doing it would hurt me more. This week was my first week back running. Just 15 tiny, turtle-like miles on my treadmill, but it's a start. Next this gets real. #marathontraining #marathonmotivation #marathonmom #mysecondmarathon #13weeks #thecountdownison
