Running 7 Continents

I am not the fastest runner. Not in the slightest. But I run.

And once upon a time, an ex, emphasis on “ex”-boyfriend casually told me that he imagined I would never be able to run a marathon after I shared the idea with him among my goals.

So I did. (The San Diego Rock N’ Roll Marathon,2007)

Every year since.

And now I can’t seem to stop.

Thus, the “not-so-fast” runner, with her hot upgrade of a partner, transformed into a globe-trotting marathon maven aiming to run at least one on every continent, proving that sometimes, the best way to silence the skeptics is not with words but with a pair of trusty running shoes and a spirit that refuses to stay put. And they all lived happily, healthily, and maybe a bit exhausted ever after.

This is the story of my global travels, running, training, and enjoying this big ol’ rock, paired with a few 26.2s .

2 Marathons to go…. and to be fair, I prefer hiking.
