Join me at the SF Marathon!
Iām excited to announce that I am a 2025 San Francisco Marathon Ambassador. Iām honored to be a part of an amazing group of ambassadors from across California collaborating with this iconic event. šš
But what does this mean for you?? I have a discount code to share! You can use my code AMBO-MARIO for 20% off ANY race distance (1k, 5k, 10k, half, full, ultra!!!). If youāre like me and somehow the full isnāt enough, yes thereās an ultra option. Run with me as I tackle my first ultramarathon ššš
Please extend this offer to your friends and family. The more and merrier, and I would love to see you out there. If you have any questions or trouble using the code, feel free to hit me up. Seeeeee ya!

Thatās a wrap for the @berkeleyhalf š
Canāt believe it took me this long to finally run this race! The energy was electric. Always thankful for my @vallejorunclub family showing up with a strong support crew. Race weekend felt like a huge party linking up with run club communities from all over the Bay Area. Oh yeah, and a PR was the cherry on top.
HM PR: 1:26:10 š
Some flicks from the Mare Island Half and Tracksmithās Oakland Twilight 5000.
Itās funny to think about how I used to be a solo runner, going out for runs with no purpose just to get some miles in. Now I canāt imagine being without my @vallejorunclub family! Last week was a blast, from racing under the track lights in Oakland to running around our home turf on Mare Island. I set some massive PRs for the 5k and the half, and I know I wouldnāt have done it without my VRC family. Hell I wouldnāt even have tried hahaha. Thankful for them and the loving support. š«¶š½
Napa Valley Marathon 2024ā¦. this was a fun one! The rain wasnāt too bad after all, and you canāt beat the scenery running past vineyard after vineyard along Silverado Trail. I wasnāt able to train much due to injury, but thankfully I had support from @vallejorunclub and @sonomavalleyrunners to help me cross the finish line. I thought I was one & done after my first marathon in Santa Rosa, but clearly I have the itch for more. Stay tunedā¦
Medal Mondayš
CIM did not disappoint! Overall a fun and lively atmosphere throughout the entire weekend. While the course is said to be āfastā, itās still pretty tough. Saw lots of runners struggling, including myself, in the second half. I caught another runner mid-tumble before he fell off the course. I battled a cramp from mile 19 through the end, with a finish time of 3:26:49. Almost 2 minutes faster than Santa Rosa, cramps and all.
Of course I have to shoutout the love and support from @vallejorunclub I wouldnāt have made it without yāall!
