We talked about how they didn’t allow women to run marathons for a long time, and I showed her the picture of Kathrine Switzer. I hope my daughter remembers seeing her mom run in a marathon and knows that she can do anything

I owe her a lot of roller skating now. In the weeks leading up to the marathon, she kept asking if we could go but I was afraid I might fall and injure myself and I wasn’t going to let roller skating take me out. So I can’t wait to take her now (once I can properly walk again 😆)

Haha yep, the official pace was 10:16! My sister said, “That’s my time for a single mile.” 😆 I have a friend who did a marathon with an 8:30 pace though, which blows my mind, so I guess it’s all relative. 🙈 Thank you!
