I just finished my first marathon in Disney and walk breaks are a way of life! Do not be ashamed it allows you to run farther and faster and I’m not the only one who believes that according to how many were doing it.
To answer your question I think for me it took me way to long to fall in love with the benefits of foam rolling! So there is my lesson learned. Have a great day!

I actually never got into the NYC Half until I moved away from New York, haha. (I’m living in California now.) I actually did the 5 borough challenge or whatever it was a few years ago and got in, but ended up getting injured, ugh! Anyway, thanks so much for the kind words. Maybe I’ll see you on the course

Coming back from an injury after an AMAZING year of running has been so tough!! I’m doing intervals and running slower than I have ever….BUT, I’m running again!!! I’ve really trying to embrace that as I move forward and just enjoy the moments!
