Summary
Finally! 2:59:12 at the 2024 Houston Marathon.
10 years after starting my marathoning career, I finally managed to break three hours in the marathon. This one was a long time coming.
I'm so thankful for all the kind messages, comments and texts that I received afterward so it felt like a win for the community and the everyday runner.
For this episode, I’m turning over the reins to my dear friend Ali Feller, the host of 'The Ali on The Run Show.' She is so much fun, the perfect person to joke around with and to get a chance to reflect on the journey.

| 0:49.3 | Alley on the run show because before the New York Marathon marathon we went out to dinner and she said, |
| 0:54.0 | who would host your marathon recap episode? |
