I did it!! I officially am a marathoner. I finished the NYC marathon in 3:07:48, and although this was slower than my A goal time of sub 3, I wouldn’t change a thing about the race or weekend.
In this episode, I talk about:
- The travel to NYC and the busy weekend we had with friends and family
- What it was like navigating logistics leading up to the marathon
- How I executed my carb load starting 2 days out from the race
- What my fueling looked like the day and night before
- How I fueled the morning of the race, and what it was like getting out to Staten Island for the start
- Breakdown of the race itself, including the point at which we realized a sub 3 hour marathon wasn’t happening, and how I pivoted in the moment to have fun
- I experienced no cramping or stomach issues, so I share how I fueled and hydrated throughout the race
- What my favorites parts of the race were and how I got through the dark moments in the race
Thank you so much for following along on this journey! I had so much fun training for and racing the New York City Marathon, and loved getting to document all parts of my training and race day. Special thanks to anyone who donated to my fundraiser for TrackGirlz! I was able to exceed my goal of raising $4500 for them by race day.
