Couch to marathon in 5 months is complete.

I completed the twin cities marathon today. It was my first marathon.

I trained for a half until July, completed a practice half, decided that was too easy and then signed up for the marathon in late July.

I did an 11 week training program with Runna. That program is complete today with the finishing of the marathon.

I’m signed up for 3 more races already. Safe to say I’m a runner now.

Redditors told me no. My body told me yes.

Moral of the story: don’t worry about internet opinions, listen to your body instead.
