Swimmer takes on a Marathon!

Since quarantine began, I have been unable to swim laps, usually my main form of exercise.  I am a member of the Webster University 100 Mile Swim Club.  Swimming offers a wonderful way to exercise and clear my mind.  With public pools closed, I turned to a form of exercise I had always dreaded: running.  Fast forward about three months and I am currently two weeks away from running the length of a marathon. I am planning on doing the run using an old marathon trail in San Francisco.  The photos above are from big running milestones I have accomplished within the last three months of training.  I have seen so many new places that I had never explored before. Running offers a daily accomplishment as well as an activity that requires you to be in the present moment.  I am so thankful for that every day.
