Text 12 Nov Post NYC Marathon Learnings

  1. Don’t blaze through Brooklyn.
  2. Listen to your coach when they tell you “Don’t blaze through Brooklyn, a minute upfront is two on the split.”
  3. If your friends ditch you at the start make new friends.
  4. The people you start running with may very well still be there at mile 17 so be nice.
  5. Let your husband, wife, friend run with you for a mile or two…it re-energizes you!
  6. Bring painkillers in your bag and take them as soon as you are finished.
  7. Smile at the cameras!
  8. If you want to see people know where they will be and look for them!
  9. Expect to say “I’m never doing this again” at mile 22 and then “I can’t wait to do this again!” once you cross the finish.
  10. Don’t blaze through Brooklyn!
