Me: “Missed my goal by 30 mins. But I finished and am proud! Every marathon is a blessing.”

99.9% of friends: “amazing job! You looked great.”

15-year-old son: “Do not post that race on Strava. Do not tell anyone you ran. Enter another one immediately and bury that garbage.”

Gym treadmills with a 60-minute time limit.

@Maddostyle Ah - wasn't New York. Different marathon but also a challenging one.

My buddy Kyle is one of the most consistent mfers I’ve ever seen when it comes to running.

He’s gunning for a 2:45 marathon this weekend. 😤

“Life’s a marathon, THEN a sprint.”

[Alex Predhome, Track and Field Enjoyer @Predamame]

One more photo finish and it might be time to retire the phrase “it’s a marathon, not a sprint.”

@tckahler No I was easily able to see that you placed first among white American males aged 20–30 who work for Runner’s World magazine.

[Brady Holmer @B_Holmer]

@tckahler Way to go brother! Solid race.

[Brady Holmer @B_Holmer]

@alyciacarrillo5 They’re all natural ingredients. Taste way better than quest.

Remember that tonight’s candy is tomorrow’s glycogen. 🍬
