We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I’m told that the results of a single election reflect a perfect, unchanging, and inescapable spirit of the Volk, so I will expect us all to start respecting the American people’s desire for Woke Maximalism.

achieved my goals in yesterday’s marathon
- enjoyed it from beginning to end ✅
- ran faster than my previous marathon (which I have never done before!) ✅
- ran fastest of my 50s ✅
- never stopped to walk, also a 1st ✅
10/10 but would I do it again? 🤷🏻♀️

I believe that prioritizing my enjoyment of the race was what enabled me to meet all my other goals. That, & experience—it was my 6th marathon. I’ve learned so much from the others!
The marathon is far from my best distance & certainly isn’t my favorite, but I ♥️ the #NYCmarathon! #running
