ðŸš¨RACE WEEK Time to lace up and get ready for @chimarathon It’s been 10 weeks since I last raced and I thought I would struggle with not racing for that long but this training cycle has been an incredible process. I am so excited to pin my number on and race this Sunday. I will strive to do my best. I am not fixated on a time or place because I cannot control the weather or my competitors. I have had so much support getting me to the start. Pat, Jerry, @bowermantc @the.island.house @nikerunning @sleepnumber @peteandgerrys @iamspecialized @polarglobal @oakley @trainingpeaks Thank you to all of my followers who have provided so much encouragement along the way. ðŸ“¸ @talbotcox
