Went to Japan looking for a big personal best and came away with a small one.
I’m proud to be chipping away and progressing in this sport, the longer you stay in the game the harder it gets to chase that all elusive satisfying feeling of accomplishment.
Starting 2025 with two really solid races, a 7:50 3k, a 1:00:57 Half.. I have one more race in this little block before I shift all my focus towards the Boston Marathon.
Mesa Half Marathon, this next Saturday!
