LA Marathon
I crossed off a big bullet on the list of life last weekend by running in the LA Marathon. I knew I would do a marathon eventually so I figured, why not check it off now? I trained for six months, doing most of my running on the coast between Santa Monica and Malibu. I decided not to train with a running group because I felt I was motivated enough to train on my own, and I wasn't thrilled about the idea of waking up at 7am every Saturday to run.
Running the marathon was probably the hardest thing I have ever done and was a truly amazing experience. Even my thick skin gave way and I got a little emotional at various points on the course as I listened to my favorite music and laid my heart out on the line. I could not have run any faster or tried any harder than I did.
I finished in 4 hours, 27 minutes, and 16 seconds.
And now I am in marathon retirement, and it's on to the next challenge.
