They say some people never run a marathon in their lifetime… I ran two in one month.

The first one was to see if I could do it. The second was to prove I could do it better.

This race wasn’t just physical, it was mental, emotional, spiritual. The doubts were heavy. The moments of wanting to quit were real. But I held on to one thing… I promised my daughter I would bring her my medal. She may not fully understand what it means, but to me, it meant everything. That promise carried me when my legs felt done and my mind was trying to convince me to stop.

And then mile 24 hit…
I felt like I had nothing left. Empty. That moment where everything in you is telling you it’s over.
Then my brother called me and asked what mile I was on. I told him 24. He said, “ Know who you are. You’re almost there. Dig deep and bring it home.”

That was it. That was the reminder I needed.
Step by step, I kept going.�Moment by moment, I chose not to quit.
And when it was all said and done, I didn’t just finish… I beat my first time by 17 minutes.

This may or may not be something I ever do again, but it showed me something I’ll carry forever… I have more fight in me than I ever realized.
Mission accomplished. 🏁

“Girl Dad”
I learned early that absence creates awareness.
My father’s absence taught me the importance of being present.
So I’m here! Actively and Intentionally.

To my daughter:
Think kindly. Live mindfully.
You will become what you believe.

Know that time is sacred.
You may lose it, spend it, even give it away
but my time with you is never wasted.
I’ll always be here.
