I'M RACING NYC MARATHON!
I'm thrilled to announce I'm racing the
New York City Marathon
this November! This is a HUGE, huge, HUGE bucket list life experience for me and I cannot wait to toe the line. E
xcept that I can because of that whole getting in fighting shape thing...
Honestly though, that's the muted version of my excitement. Hard to do it justice. When I heard I'd been added to the lineup, I didn't stop shaking for hours. I had to verify three times it wasn't some late April Fools' joke. It's not! I am beyond honored and thrilled to be racing in November.
And hello? You've seen the American line up, right? NYCM 16 just might be the cure to your Olympic hangover.
Kim Conley! (debut)
Kellyn Taylor!
Sara Hall!

Molly Huddle! (debut)
Janet Bawcom!
(But wait, there's more! Read full line up here, minus my late addition. Get on it LetsRun: Sarah Mac Robinson 2:42:36.)
American only prize money for the first time in a decade should bring out a great race!
My training is going well, all detours aside. In reference to my previous blog I will say I was reminded that life and my body is to be respected...but not feared. I'm listening to my body and looking ahead - #mac2nyc to follow along! And of course, follow the blog for more to come as I gear up for November 6.
Who else is in?! See you in November!
