What I Took Away from My First Live Race Back

Live racing is back!!!  It has been 21 months…that is how long it has been since I have been able to be surrounded by our running community for a live half marathon! 

I just ran the 2021 Cheshire half marathon and just needed to share my thoughts about racing and where we stand as a running community since the pandemic began.

In this episode, I will share my thoughts about our summer cohort of team of healthy runners, my personal race and where it fits in my running journey, and my thoughts about our running community and the future of racing.
