3 marathons in 6 months. I knew someday I wanted to run a marathon but never did I think I\\u2019d run back to back to back marathons. They say the third time is the charm and it most definitely was with The Boston Marathon. This was a dream of mine since I was kid & I couldn\\u2019t have been more prepared come race day. My legs were fresh, the weather was perfect & I was able to crush through all 26.2 miles without feeling completely gased out . Today we\\u2019re going to dive into why I wanted to run Boston, the training that happened behind the scenes and 7 lessons I learned from the experience. \\xa0

7 lessons from running the Boston Marathon :

• Lesson 1 : Do the work even when nobody is watching. We have to become our biggest accountability partner and continue to show up daily.\\xa0
• Lesson 2 : Focus on the small steps. There\\u2019s no need to get overwhelmed thinking about what has yet to come & the best way to do that is by being present and focusing on what\\u2019s in front of you right now.
• Lesson 3 : Push through the bad days. It\\u2019s inevitable we may hit a wall and not have the motivation to do what we need to do but these are the moments we need to show up
• Lesson 4 : Slow down to speed up. It may feel like we\\u2019re \\u201closing progress\\u201d in the moment but we\\u2019re setting ourselves up for the long-term. It\\u2019s a marathon, not a sprint.\\xa0
• Lesson 5 : Treat your mind & body with care. It will ripple into every area of your life as you\\u2019re able to show up as the best version of you. \\xa0
• Lesson 6 : Be thankful for your supporters. Never take for granted the people that go out of their way to show love & support. When given the opportunity, do the same for others.
• Lesson 7 : Get started today. I wouldn\\u2019t have been able to complete a marathon had I not taken that first step to go run a mile. After that, it\\u2019s just a game of staying consistent and then the progress comes.\\xa0
