In this episode we recap the BUSY marathon weekend from bib pick-up at the LA Marathon expo, Isaiah's 16th birthday party, Makenzie's late night race at Sound Running and the play by play of Eddie's marathon debut!
 
Also, listen in as Sally shares how we all interact with pain differently and how important it is to not give it attention. She also shares how we have the freedom/choice to determine our race goals and the amazing things we can accomplish when we choose to push through discomfort. 


We hope you are encouraged!
