Congratulations on your achievement! That's an excellent time!

That's a damn-fine effort and result, especially for a first marathon - congratulations to you!

What marathon training program did you use?

Awesome achievement! =D Congrats.

Congratulations, Lacey, a fantastic achievement. Just to put things into perspective, I've run 95 races and never done a marathon. My mind and body are in conflict as to whether it's a good idea or not! A really good time , well done, and I hope your aches and pains go away as soon as possible.👏👏👏

Congrats!

I just started running, did you ever experience calve pain? If so, what did you do to help with that problem?

You're amazing! Good luck on your marathon! My 1st will be this fall and hoping for a 12 min mile pace. You got this!

Wow Lacey like your energy and endurance to run marathons, Love to Armwrestle Your Impressive Guns 💪💪👍👍

I'm cheering you on every step of the way. Your marathon training is inspiring!

I'm so excited to follow your marathon journey! I know you'll crush it.

Do you plan on running the marathon on feel or do you have pace/HR targets in mind? Good luck on Saturday!

💪 you got this

That was great getting that super long run done. Hope you didn't get too dehydrated! =D

Almost there!! Good luck with your race!!

Good luck with the race. We will be rooting for you.

Great job! I’m a 1at timer and slower runner. Appreciate yiur videos. I have gotten to fountains and pushed and no water too. Hate that

Hi, I am new Subscriber maam i like you☺

Hi Lacey, do you use strava? It would be good to encourage you and give you kudos after your runs 🏃‍♀️

😊

Good luck on your marathon-Nice job on your long run

Nice run Lacey! What kind of hydration vest is that? I have the one where it has a water pouch in the back and it can get heavy depending how much water u put in it. Is that one better for your hydration you think ? It holds water bottles?

Looks like you're crushing training -- great work!

Define "Commitment": Complete an 18-mile training run, and then go get ready for work!!! This is one reason why my long runs are on the weekend! Big "Ups" to you, and best wishes for the future!

I’m glad you mentioned about zone 2 training. I’m struggling with this, I’ve been trying it for a couple weeks and I’m getting so frustrated that my pace is still so slow. I feel fine but yet my heart rate stays in zone 3, and like you said I’m going so stinking slow. And yeah, I don’t have infinite amounts of time to be running high mileage at a crawl. I’m not really decided about how to proceed, I will start training for my first half marathon in a few months so I guess I will keep trying it for a while.

Which state is that if I may ask? Good luck for the marathon!

You’ve got a beautiful spot to run!

great job Lacey!

great job lacey and an absolutely beautiful day for a run

Great Run!

How was that chia seed gel ?

Keep it up

good luck with the training! :)

Great insights! Long runs can be tough but keep your overall goal of completing the marathon in the back of your mind to help you through it! Best of luck

Podcast work great to pass the time. These runs should be slow. Fueling and hydrating become very important after 10-12 miles. Eat lots of protein after the runs for a quick recovery. I know it can be expensive but a good air relax machine helps speed up recovery. Adding a mile or two every week won’t seem like you’re adding a lot. After a few weeks you’ll be at 16-17 miles and 13 will seem like a walk in the park.

Great job! I’ve never tried the SIS but I’m going to now that you mentioned them. I’m training for a half marathon (my 1st). Your videos are motivating!

Proud of you👍🔥

For the long runs I think breaking it up into chunks mentally helps getting through it, so for a 15 mile run you can just think of it as three 5 mile runs and it helps a bit lol. Or just toss on a long audiobook and let that distract from the distance 👍

Thank you for this realistic and honest evaluation of your training process! I used to be a distance runner but have dropped off in recent years. I do have flat feet and require a lot of stabilization in my shoes, but am hoping to get back to running in the next few days.

Just found your channel, great videos you're a natural in front of the camera. Good luck with the training 👍👍
