The speed project 2025 REVIEW_2
For me, TSP was, maybe with a bit of an exaggeration, not really about running. Running was just the format. It felt like a completely different experience
From beginning to end everything was about the team, by the team, and for the team
When I asked Minseok who had done it the year before, for advice, he was like “You have a dream team! Just make sure to keep smiling the whole time.” That gave me so much courage and it became my mantra for the race
But you know what? I didn't even need to remind myself of that. The truth is that because we were together smiling felt as natural as breathing even in the hardest moments
Even if it had been ten times harder we still would have laughed together
A bit of a belated thank you but I want to express my deepest gratitude to our teammates, crews, our own @prrc1936 , @seoulvenus , @koreatownrunclub , and my new family @parkdaleroadrunners communities for supporting me in soooooo many ways, and last but not least 탕구, who has been my biggest and most reliable crew through it all!

The speed project 2025 REVIEW_1
1년이 지나니 기억이 다 흐려졌는데 햇준오빠 덕에 겨우 남긴 설문 기록 찾아
뒤늦게 박제하는 추억
영어로 쓰면 내년에야 올릴 것 같아서 일단 한글판으로만
아 TSP 가 뭐냐면요 매년 LA에서 라스베가스까지 정해진 코스없이 혼자 또는 여럿이서 릴레이로 무규칙 무관중으로 달리는 대회고요 저는 작년 3월 저를포함 @prrc1936 멤버 9명과 함께 끝내주는 경험을 하고 왔다는 이야기
1편이 되겠습니다
I didn’t know a marathon with no goals and no pressure could be this fun 😏 Love LA, friends, the vibe, the food, and the BTG. It was definitely one of my favorite marathons!
And last but not least happy 10th anniversary @koreatownrunclub Your passion and genuine love for running make me proud to be part of this community. Thank you for an amazing weekend🌴🌀🧡
머나먼 나라에 있는 제게 빕 쥐어주며 기회주신 @jbw.kr 오빠 최고 감사드립니다🙇🏻♀️
그리고 엘에이에 치와와 많아서 끝내주게 행복했다,,, #lamarathon
2023 TOKYO MARATHON RECAP
03:24:17
Sorting through photos over the past few weeks I realized I should recap one of the most memorable races of my life—the Tokyo Marathon. These photos are a throwback to what (I think) was my 11th marathon and the first one where I trained seriously
It was a grueling three months of solo winter training with some days so tough I literally cried because I didn’t want to run. On top of that, it was an emotional and hectic time as I was preparing to leave Korea. Looking back, it all feels so precious and meaningful tho.
But if you asked me to do another solo winter training cycle? Never. Not in a million years😇👋🏻
진짜 도쿄는 할말개마나 에피소드 개마나 대회인데 너무 오래 지나서 썰 풀기도 애매해서 그냥 사진만 올리는 걸류,,,오히려 완주하고 목표 기록 나왔을 땐 무념무감이었는데 엑스포가서 운 거 지금 봐도 개웃기넼ㅋㅋㅋ
In hindsight, everything tends to get romanticized!
This summer, running has taken up a lot of my time but also allowed me to have these beautiful moments and people💚
여름이었다-🌿
#chicagomarathon2024 recap
IYKYK —I’ve been training hard for Chicago for over five months. Yesterday, the day finally came. Whether I’m happy with my time or not, it’s all behind me now which made me so happy.
Thank you to all the friends who supported me, trained, and celebrated with me. I’ll never forget the summer of 2024 a season filled with running and so many beautiful moments.
There won’t be any more serious marathons, but don’t get me wrong. I’ll keep running until the day I die. That’s what my retirement means👵🏻
보스턴에게 당한 거 시카고에 갚아주고 PB 경신한 다음에 뒤도 안 돌아보고 은퇴하는 게 목표였는데 믿었던 시카고에 되려 통수를 맞고 기록에 미련과 여한이 절절하게 남아버렸다. 넵. 이렇게 또 배웁니다. 그래도 여아 일언 중천금이니 일단 n년은 은퇴하고 남은 마라톤은 펀런으로 달리고 철인이랑 트레일로 슬금 슬금 넘어가렵니다.
여름 내 치덕치덕 바르던 거의 비워가는 수퍼 벤티 사이즈의 선크림도, 번갈아 빠지고 멍들어 멀쩡할 일 없던 가엾은 발톱들도 이제 안녕!
