Sometimes things don't go to plan, and this is one such example...running Boston Marathon 2024. It was a long and difficult journey, and a long and difficult race, but I have no regrets.

Please learn from my mistakes, I will walk, so you can run :)

It was super hot that day. I was 2 minutes slower in 2024 than I was in 2023 (despite being much fitter) when it was cool and rainy but I placed about 1,500 places better which is a good indicator of how much the weather impacted everyone’s performance. And yes, there was carnage of runners passed out and on the ground all over the place.

That's crazy how so many top athletes like yourself crashed. I managed sub 3 but it was the hardest thing ever with those hills. Like you I just had to push myself not to walk. I went to the medical tent also. Yes so humbling

That’s me at 4:45 in the blue hoodie! 😂

Haven’t yet seen a recap that didn’t include having an unusually high heart rate. Mine was high by mile 7, and I’m a Boston veteran so not overly-amped.

Sorry to hear it didn't go as planned, but you earned yourself a new subscriber! Great content and bravo on finishing, especially after flying halfway across the world!
