Well, that was the most incredible running experience ever.
Lots of emotions along the course, the crowds were spectacular and I think I got over my phobia of having to run an entire marathon in the headwind:)
We are off to the airport (I positively can’t wait to see Brookie) and so I will have a full recap up for you in the morning!

I cannot thank you all enough for all of your good lucks, the sweetest emails, incredible support and for being my internet friends. It means the world to me.
