Fulfillment of a Life Long Dream

I’ve run 5 previous marathons but always hit the wall. My goal was to run the Boston hills and still finish strong.
Thanks to Coach Abby’s detailed training schedules and race plan, I finished Boston Strong with my last mile being my fastest and my second fastest marathon time of 4:35, at the age of 55.
