The #NB5thAveMile Media Mile is such an annual highlight! Thank you to @nyrr for bringing journalists together for the media heatā¦and especially for having Team Freelance! This run was a tough one for me, but still happy to have beat last yearās time (and tied 2022ās time!).
How I ended up on a fourth Path to 26.2 at this yearās @bostonmarathon!
If you're going to defy doctors' orders, then you've got to go big! Thanks to @POPSUGAR for letting me share my story to the @bostonmarathon finish line, thanks to @Westin and @WMMajors.

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #12 (September 8): 1 mile, 9:59. Of all the days weāve been in this heatwave, today was the first time where the moment I stepped outside, it felt like I was in a heat box. I consideredā¦

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #11 (September 7): 1 mile, 11:16. This time I know it was not the right choice to run. At a scorching 93, not a single person outside was exerting any effort. Even the dog walkers were just standing aroundā¦

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #10 (September 6): 1 mile, 11:11. Another scorcher. Today reached a high of 94, and just before I left for my run, my Alexa popped up with a warning that air quality was questionableā¦

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #9 (September 5): 1 mile, 11:18. Absolutely scorching and humid. After having done my strength-training virtual classā¦

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #8 (September 4): 1 mile, 11:10. I do wonder if Iām overdoing it. Iām logging more runs than I did last year, albeit in a shorter amount of timeā¦

#NB5thAveMile Training Run #7 (September 3): 1 mile, 9:45. With the overbooked schedule Iāve found myself on these few weeks (three full-time projects on top of my regular workload), Sunday morning ended up being the only pocket of time I hadā¦

Training Run #5 (September 1): 1 mile, 10:21. New month, new attitude? Not quite. It used to take me forever to get out the doorā¦

Training Run #4 (August 31): 1 mile, 10:32. Feeling guilty I didnāt officially run my mile yesterday, but thatās because I was out the door reporting for a project for 12 hours, driving 250 miles and walking 17,141 stepsā¦

Training Run #3 (August 29): 1 mile, 10:50. Third runās a charm? Not really. But I did feel like I could rev up to 2:30 running and 1:00 walking. I stuck religiously to that until the end, and it turns outā¦

Training Run #2 (August 28): 1 mile, 10:47. That back to school feeling: I was a bit hesitant to run two days in a row, so I told myself to keep it light. I committed to the two minutes on, one off method, yet once I started going, Iā¦

Training Run #1 (August 27): 1 mile, 11:26. Admittedly, I have not been in the best space, physically or mentally, but Iām grateful to have the @nyrrās #NB5thAveMile to look forward to. More than two years ago, doctors told me never to runā¦

Week 6 (September 11): 1.02 miles, 8:43. What a rush! Nearly a year late to post this š«£, but I completely shocked myself coming from such a tumultuous journey to finishing under 9! Thereās just something so energetic about the thrillā¦
