🏅 Medal Sunday🏅
It wasn’t my intention to leave my own marathon post this late in the week, but it also wasn’t my intention to get shingles either—so here we are 🤷🏼♀️
Let’s just say the Zürich Marathon delivered. It was perfect conditions and a beautiful course along Lake Zürich.
This was my 10th marathon, and I came away with a PB that was faster than I expected. Everything lined up in the week and on race day, and I produced negative splits for the first time ever.
These things don’t happen overnight—it was off the back of a consistent training block and the best mindset I’ve ever had going into a race. If I ever figure out how I got that, I’m writing it down and selling it, because that was a bloody lovely place to be.
