    Congrats on sub 5, that's such an awesome accomplishment!! Wish I had ran into you, but this was so much fun to watch. I'm so glad you enjoyed the marathon!! I laughed when you commented on how flat this race was because I had to train for the bridge and tunnel. Lower Michigan is very (VERY) flat, so come back and join us anytime you're chasing a PR!! 😅

      I'm bummed we didn't get to meet in person but CONGRATS on your half! And yes, I loved the flatness of this race for sure!!

    Tracking you for the race was so fun 🤩! When you hit the 21.7 mark, we knew that sub-5 was within reach and then around mile 24, we followed your icon to the finish. You did awesome!
    I do love the cold brew coffee gels, and will be stocking up when we’re in Florida. Sadly, I can’t get them shipped here 😢. Great recap video!

      Thanks so much for tracking and cheering, friends! I felt the support from overseas! Let me know if you ever need me to be your Cold Brew Gu supplier between US visits haha! I'm planning on trying the flavor out on my next long run.

    I loved this, running it as my first ever marathon in 2024!! Can I ask where your garmin watch band is from?

    • @rmfickfack
      @rmfickfack  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ahhh good luck! You'll enjoy it! I got my Garmin bands from Amazon. There's a pack of about 10 different colors that I got. Since there's a top band and bottom band, you can mix and match colors :)

    I love your video and currently trying to run all 50 states also but just the half marathons! Congratulations on your run and I will be running the Detroit half marathon in 2024. So excited. I hope you don't mind me asking but how to carry your GoPro for filming the whole time? Just with your hand or do you use a stick or chesty? I'm wanting to use my GoPro but find it would be difficult to hold the whole 13 miles to film. Im not sure what the best option would be. Thanks for your help:)

      Hi! Such a great question! I run with a run belt usually, so I have a place to stash my camera when I'm not using it and I don't have to hold it the entire time. Because of the border crossing in this race, I recommend just bringing the camera without any additional accessories. The border agents do have the right to stop any runner and search them, so the less you can bring across the border the easier the crossing will be for you! Good luck on your race in Detroit - you're going to love it!!
