On Sunday, I completed my first ever marathon! It was by far the most difficult challenge I've put myself through, but I pushed through despite the pain. I have never run this much in one year before.

Coming into 2024, my longest run was 8 miles. At the beginning of this year, I beat that by completing a half marathon, and now I can say I've run a full marathon.

Cheered on the #PhiladelphiaMarathon #runners for a few hours today. At least it was dry, but these winds really tested their mettle.
Brain cancer survivor and #AACR #Runners4Research team member ran Philly to save lives and finished in an impressive 2 hours and 48 minutes.

One hour until #PhiladelphiaMarathon starts. So keyed up I feel like I’m going to puke.
