Something else I experienced in Japan was running my first full marathon in Kobe, Japan of all places! Running a full marathon had always been on my bucket list, but such a far fetched goal that I never thought i’d actually do it. Low and behold, 42.16K, and 5hr8min later ya girl ran her first marathon. This picture was probably taken in the early stages of the run as you can see by my smile. Because, let me tell you……I was NOT happy towards the end…haha. All I could think about was finishing and my legs not falling off. But, it really is true when they say that marathons are addictive. After this marathon I was convinced that I was never going to run again, I disliked running so much after all the training it took for this marathon. HOWEVER, after I got out of that slump, I signed up for two more half marathons the following two months. Crazy, I know!
