Half Marathon? Check. Bucket list item officially crossed off with ! ✅

Truth be told, Amanda and I didn’t exactly train for this. Originally, we were aiming for a 5K, and we were just casually preparing for it. Before today, my longest run had never exceeded 6 miles and I had picked back up on running a few weeks prior to this.

While it might not have been the wisest decision to tackle this without proper training, it was about more than just speed or winning. This race was a test of our determination, proving to ourselves that we’re capable of overcoming challenges and doing hard things.

While it might sound cheesy, if you set your mind to it, you’ll surprise yourself with what you can achieve. Don’t get in your own way, and don’t be afraid to challenge yourself from time to time. 👊🏻
