Nine years ago today, I became an official marathoner!! Thanks to my amazing sister for sharing this memory with me! It wasn’t easy but we tackled 26.2 miles of running together!! We finished in 5 hours and 23 minutes. One of my proudest moments in my life.
And fast forward to today. Where running just shy of two miles was hard. First run in over a month, but ya gotta start somewhere, right?
My name is Michelle and I am a retired Air Force Master Sergeant. I have found a passion for running, cooking, writing, photography and all things that move my love for life! I've ran 3 full marathons, with a PR of 4:25, and 17 half marathons with a PR of 2:00:11 (yup-missed sub 2 by 11 seconds, lol). Thanks for joining me on my journey!

Great job, Michelle! That would have been a special day – especially shared with your sister.💞
Great job on your marathon 9 years ago. That was a great pace and I’m sure made more special sharing it with your sister. And, great job on the two miles today! You had to start somewhere 9 years ago too. You know you can do whatever you really want to accomplish if you set your mind to it.
An awesome and inspiring memory, made even better because you and your sister came together to create this special moment. The hours of intense training were worth it.

Bravo to you! I can’t imagine running a marathon. I used to run 5ks, but it has been a few years.

It would probably take me two hours to run a 5k. 😆

Technically you could walk a 5k in an hour at a normal pace lol.
