From newbie runner to marathon conqueror! In 2023, I decided to take on the ultimate challenge: signing up for the iconic Paris marathon in April 2024. The training journey was tough (with a few injuries on the way), but the experience of the Paris marathon was incredibly positive and unforgettable. Joining Queensbury running club was a game-changer for me, the support from fellow runners provided invaluable tips and encouragement every step of the way. The event was so well-organised, and the landmarks along the way provided a beautiful sight to keep me going throughout . Plus, let’s not forget the little boosts of energy with cake every 5k! Crossing the finish line and receiving my hard-earned medal was absolutely unmatched. Proud doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel right now. Here’s to chasing dreams, pushing limits, and embracing every step of the journey!
Well done Rebecca on your first marathon!
