Grandma’s: Kate’s Experience

public.jpeg

Nobody could have prepared Kate for how her first marathon would feel.

It’s a 20 mile warmup and a 10K race.

It’s going to feel bad at 22 and you’ll need to push for the last 4.2 miles.

The first 18 will be easy and then it gets hard.

All of the anecdotal truisms are worth as much as the paper they’re written on when it is your first marathon. It is your experience. It is your race. It is your struggle. It is your triumph.

Kate experienced all on this day.

Her words deserve to be heard in full and not doctored, edited, or paraphrased in any way. Listen to her race weekend experience and what is next for her.
