Welcome to Week 1 of my BQ or Bust journey as I train for the Chicago Marathon with one goal in mind: qualifying for the Boston Marathon. If you want an inside look at how a running coach tackles marathon training, you're in the right place.
In this vlog, I take you day-by-day through my first week of marathon training, sharing how I'm handling an early overuse injury, defining my why, dealing with summer heat, and setting the tone for the next 16 weeks. From adjusting mileage to balancing life, this series is all about making marathon training work for everyday runners, avoiding burnout, and having more fun chasing big goals.
The only way you fail is if you fail to try. WHY NOT?! Throughout the BQ or Bust series, you'll get: Weekly "Run With Me" treadmill episodes new every Friday Weekly roundup vlog + podcast episodes new every week depending on when I get them edited :) Real talk about training, the mental game, and the ups and downs of chasing big dreams
