Running Streak Day 4780 (2.1.2026) SF Half Marathon. I always say I’m not a morning person but who can truly stay cranky at such a hype event!? It’s the first big road race of the new year. How awesome for it to be a sell-out event this year, meaning maximum funds collected to benefit several Bay Area charities-
@gotrbayarea @rboakland @supportforfamilies to name a few. Working hard behind the scenes were our friends at
@blisteringpace @pamakidrunners @sfrunco @katemi.co who made the magic of an event this size happen!! It’s been awhile since I’ve run this one. The weather, gorgeous course and event production came together for an incredible experience! I only have my lack of training to blame for my “bad time” 😂 Honestly, my 13.1 was a sufferfest from mile 3 but I hung in there. Knowing the weather the past 2 years was a complete disaster, it was easy to take in the beautiful morning and enjoy all the scenery this part of SF had to offer. I got to share a few miles with
@jlopez823 in the beginning, then with a 1st timer- Danny (a 9th grader!!) off and on for the rest of the way. There was a
@runwithmaxkam sighting along Hwy 1 which gave me a bit more pep in my step🥰. He was flyyyying by effortlessly as usual! I was greeted at the finish line with the most welcoming MC
@endorphindude shouting my name & awarded my medal by none other than
@i_support_rrca 🥹. I cannot emphasize how happy this race made my heart feel! While the event covered a lot of physical ground, it felt tight & cozy amongst the familiar faces of my beloved running community from start to finish. I loved seeing running friends I haven’t seen in ages- like
@catrinemachi !! -and making new friends along the way.
@sophie_szew Thank you
