Marathoning and The Process
The schedule was pretty rigid, the bedtimes were often early, and I found that it was actually a great way to spend a summer. Just like I set out to do in the spring when I was coming back from that injury, I was proud of how much I was getting out to run every week, satisfied with how the daily run made my body and mind feel, and stoked to do it in a way that built community and formed a bond with the people around me. When I finally made it to Thanksgiving and the end of my marathon build, I knew that whatever happened out on the course in Victoria, I had accomplished my goals and the whole endeavour was a success.
