I'm glad to see that it is possible to train for a marathon as a beginner in 5 months. It's also nice to know it's normal to have bad runs and good ones
It’s all a part of the process!
Omg ive signed up for Paris 2025. Tha k you for sharing this
Congratulations & great video. Paris was also my first marathon, but way back in 2015 at the age of 45 (& a terrible time). Did you notice the thin blue line which marks the shortest route? I then went on to run the Rome Marathon in 2017 which is also amazing. Good luck with your running journey.
Thank you so much for your kind words! No I didn’t notice the thin blue line…maybe I need to run Paris again! Rome sounds like an incredible place to also run a race.
Very nice presentation of your marathon experience; thank you Cat.
You gave good, no nonsense advice.
A great success, congratulations.
Pride, performance, looks, gear : Marathon just laughs at this.
You are a member of the family now. Happy to see that you do other runs and all. This is just the beginning.
Thanks also for the positivity and down-to-earth atmosphere.
Thank you so much for the kind words!! Messages like this are so motivating when it comes to getting another race on the calendar!!
You are fast.. 🎉 much faster than me anyway. Lol. Great run! Congrats
It’s not the speed that counts, but the effort! Good luck on your running journey!
Great effort Cat! Congratulations on running your first marathon!🙌
Thank you so much!
Loved this video and just started training for my first marathon and downloaded Runna because of your success/story! Thank you for sharing :)
I love this so much!! Keep me updated on your training progress and thoughts on Runna 🤍
Love this!!! I’d love to run a marathon one day. You’re awesome!
You can do it. Don't overthink, just enjoy the process.
Thank you Madeline for watching :) You can definitely do it!!
This is great video, inspiring . Congratulations. Continue your runnong journey and post videos
Thank you so much! I hope you were able to learn something new!
Congrats! Next you will be doing your first ultra! Great video and recap.
Ooh we shall see if an ultra is in my future - thanks for the support!
Inspiring! Good time aswell
Thank you so much for watching!
Omg what an amazing time for just staring out!! I’m signed up for a half and I’m hoping to do it under 3 hours 😂
Thank you so much!! Good luck with your half marathon training, you got this!!
Comparing yourself during the race is the worst
Agreed!! Perhaps one of the biggest lessons I learned (and will try not to do next time!)
