Today is the day. Marathon Monday is here!!!
By the time you read this post, I will be on my way to Hopkinton to run 26.2 miles. This day is a long time coming, and I can’t be more excited to finally run the Boston Marathon. It is the race I’ve always wanted to run. A lot of time, effort, and miles have gone into this one day, and I am beyond thrilled to participate and experience the 119th running of the Boston Marathon. That said, see you in Boston!
