Description
This week’s mini episode is all about the five biggest lessons I’ve picked up after interviewing nearly 100 runners about their first marathons! From starting slow and taking the pressure off your debut race, to finding the right community, building strength, knowing your why, and ultimately just signing up and doing it, these themes came up again and again across countless conversations. If you’re gearing up for your first 26.2, this one is packed with advice that’ll help you train smarter, enjoy the journey, and step up to the start line with confidence.
