I love this post! I’ve been asking myself a lot of these same questions in running (and in life)… I also feel like I won’t be running marathons forever. I’d like to do a few more but for the long term I definitely see myself focusing more on shorter distances, too. Congrats on such a solid marathon and huge pr!!
Thanks Laura. For me the training can be so time consuming especially if you have an “off day” on a long run. There are just so many other things I’d rather be doing with my time plus I’m super competitive and with the marathon there are just so many factors that have to come together at the right time unlike the 5K where you can just jump in another one and redeem yourself the following weekend!
Beverly, we SO enjoyed having you with us at HUG in November. After 5 years in Greece, I’ve now returned to a different position at Harding University in Searcy. I look forward to having your son, Bo, in my class! Best always!
