Literally every time I go to eat something I think "how will this effect my run today?" The hours I put into training make this emotionally and physically exhausting. So I begin to ask myself. "Why am I doing this?"
Here are my top 3 reasons for running a marathon.
1. Because I can.
2. Because only 0.5% of Americans have ran one!
3. Because I want to inspire others to pursue their goals.
I may have already mentioned this, but I feel it is very important to not lose sight of why I am running this marathon!
I am so incredibly blessed that God has given me the capability to physically run this race. Every day that I want to quit I remember this bible verse.
2 Timothy 4:7
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
Ever wondered how someone looks after a 13 mile run? Well you don't have to anymore! Here I am after my 13 mile run last week.
I actually was feeling pretty great after my ice bath!
What about you? Do you have any races/goals coming up?
Until next time,
Janelle
