This was my second time running the Women’s Marathon. The last time it was in Savannah, Georgia; this year it was in Scottsdale, Arizona. We had a great group from our Fleet Feet runners traveling from CT to take on the race.

This was my second Marine Corps Marathon, and I had such a great experience! I ran it last year and loved the course, and once again, the weather was perfect. We flew American Airlines and had a nice, short flight to D.C.

I knew this marathon would be unlike any other—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

This was my second time running the Berlin Marathon—I previously ran it in 2022 and had a fantastic experience. Naturally, I was excited to return. As race day approached, I was obsessively checking the 10-day weather forecast. Initially, it looked like rain, but as the day drew nearer, the forecast shifted to a high of 80°F. My heart sank.

This was my sixth time running the Big Sur Marathon, and I knew I was in for a treat.

This year marked my 12th consecutive Boston Marathon—and it was an emotional one. I knew going into the race that it wouldn’t be my strongest performance.
