Boston Success!

Hi friends! I did what I never thought I’d have the chance to do, I ran Boston Marathon barefoot! It was a cool, overcast day with an occasional light rain so the conditions were perfecto for a 26.2 mile jaunt through the countryside!
My longest training run was just over 15 miles so I was definitely in unchartered territory. But I felt good almost the entire race, my walking breaks got a bit longer miles 16-20 but I was trying to conserve energy for the hills after mile 20. Once I was past Heartbreak and I only had about a 5k left, that was probably one of the best feelings I’ve ever had. I was hoping for less than 5.5 hours, I got 4:52.
I’m honestly only able to post this because of the people here. Though I’m not around much any more, this is my base, my people. We all grew up learning barefoot together starting over 14 years ago. This race is for all you crazy effers out there grinding the barefoot miles! Cheers to you and thanks for this village!
