I enjoyed reading the details you included that I’ve never considered about marathons… like all the clothes on the side of the road! Thanks for taking us along on this race.
Thank you!! I was floored by how much stuff was abandoned along the way, but we drove the route a day later and I was really impressed with the clean-up. The organizers scrubbed almost all evidence of the race, I think I spotted only one stray gel wrapper.
Ah what a great read, Jessica!! It brought me back to my rainy fall marathon last year. I love the details you included, it felt like we were right there with you. It was fun to read your observations of your pacing and the race itself. And your race photos are great! The finish chute smiles will always make me cry. Haha 🥹 Well done!!
Ahh thank you! I've almost decided that rainy-day marathons are where it's at, except I also really loved my crisp, dry, and partly sunny marathon!! Also I looove my finishing photos, especially when I compare them to my first marathon when I was already crying (happy tears) by the time I crossed the finishing line: https://www.instagram.com/p/CknyLSyLEYF/?img_index=6 Ending with a grin felt amazing!
