Running has taken me on a journey—literally and figuratively—pushing me beyond my limits and proving how strong I can be. My first half marathon in Regensburg, Germany, was a challenge filled with breathtaking views and cobblestone streets, but nothing compared to the full marathon I recently conquered at the Austin Marathon. From the adrenaline at the starting line to the mental battles at mile 20, every step was a test of endurance, determination, and sheer willpower. Crossing that finish line wasn’t just about the miles—it was about the journey, the discipline, and the reminder that I’m capable of more than I ever imagined. Now, the only question is… what race is next?
