Summary
In 2019, after my third attempt to BQ, I stopped chasing my impossible dream to qualify for the Boston marathon after running 3 hours 42 minutes in the marathon. (Missing my BQ by 12 minutes). Well...BQ OR BUST take 4! But it all starts with spending the next 12-weeks training to break 2 hours in the half marathon. The Philly Half Marathon to be exact. Every week I'll be breaking down my training here so watch or tune in!
Week 9 of training to break 2 hours in the half marathon (I'm calling this Project 1:59) is finished and so is my 10K!!!! This week, training was a little wild with the NYC Marathon so let's talk about how I adjusted!

| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody. Welcome to the Run Selfie Repeat podcast where we talk about life with the side of running. |
| 0:04.9 | My name is Kelly Roberts. I am the founder of the badass lady gang and the host of this here little |
| 0:09.7 | show. It is late. Normally I try to post these episodes every single Monday, but this past weekend in |
| 0:19.9 | real time, it was the New York City |
| 0:21.1 | marathon. |
| 0:22.4 | And I'm just getting my voice back and I'm just coming back to life. |

| 1:18.0 | just quoted like, oh God, he said that immigrants are tainting our blood. Like this guy, |
| 1:24.4 | I cannot. I am on edge today. So I'm very nervous about recording this because I'm so |
| 1:31.9 | anxious and I'm deeply, deeply hopeful that the women show up and that America shows up. |
