I’m super late, but I completed my first half Marathon in May. It was one of the most fulfilling events ever! It required planning, actionable goals, and a TON of running.😩🫠 I have learned that I really enjoy finding a way to see how I can grow as a person and that is usually through some form of discipline in training and nutrition. Yes….as odd as that might sound, I enjoy discipline. 😂🤣 I have done a few 5Ks, which some I didn’t even train for. But a half marathon or 13.1 miles run is not something I was NOT willing to go out there and just “Go For It!”…

America….America Has A Problem
Yup! We are doing a huge disservice to our future generations.
