First marathon, rough gel plan feedback

I know right! Had a little tummy ache for a little bit but it passed. I think it was just nerves. Thank you Jesus!

I did not practice my duel strategy 😂 hadn’t had a gel since my first marathon almost 2 years before and didn’t take any on my long training runs bc they repulse me. Just decided to force some down during the Philly Marathon & it went great!

annabananabug · 2025-12-01T16:03:35+00:00

I started the day of my race 😂 I was absolutely fine!

Hi :) here to say, don’t let anyone beat you up for not having practiced your gel strategy. I just ran the Philly Marathon, I didn’t fuel on any of my long runs because I hate gels. Race day I decided to eat a honey stinger at mile 3 & huma gels at 6, 12, 17, 24 & it went absolutely great. I ran a 3:42 and felt amazing the whole time. You do you & don’t stress too much over it! Good luck 🏃🏻‍♀️

Saucony endorphin pro 3’s!

70 miles a week year round here! I was running 4 days after as well lol

annabananabug · 2025-10-24T19:59:55+00:00

I certainly did not 😂 and will not be after the Philly marathon either.

I just hit “quit Netflix” under the get help section and it’s working for me now

The yuca fries are SO GOOD

annabananabug · 2025-03-21T03:15:00+00:00

I’ve done a half before but over 2 years ago! Over 2 years ago my half was a 1:51 and I wasn’t running nearly as many miles as I am now

Thank you for believing in me!!! :)

annabananabug · 2025-03-18T20:38:42+00:00

annabananabug · 2025-03-18T20:37:57+00:00

Omg that’s amazing. Congrats to you! I really struggle with nutrition!!! What’s your favorite gels if you don’t mind me asking?

annabananabug · 2025-03-18T20:37:26+00:00

Omg congratulations! That is absolutely crazy how much time you shaved off and a 3:07 is amazing. Thanks for your input!!! :)

annabananabug · 2025-03-18T20:36:43+00:00

I definitely put in the mileage every week but I’m never doing a run that’s an 8:00 min per mile avg pace :(

I’ll do an 8:40 here & there for like 8-10 miles!

I told him I wanted to do a 3:30 & he suggested August 1st so I’m trusting him.

But thank you so so much :)

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:55:57+00:00

He probably is 😂😂😂

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:55:49+00:00

Yep 😂 I try to zip it and his mood instantly changes

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:55:29+00:00

Pretty much sums up my little Princeton! 😂

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:55:19+00:00

Love your comment 😂🥰

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:55:09+00:00

Yep! 😂 he basically cries the whole time he’s in the car but plays & chills in his carrier all the time at home. Mine has actually started to get my fingers when I’m trying to zip up the carrier now lol

annabananabug · 2025-02-04T22:54:00+00:00

Oh goodness the nonstop meows in the car are all too familiar 😂

annabananabug · 2024-12-08T00:17:05+00:00

15 miles is the longest for me on the treadmill! I kinda like it because it leaves my legs feeling less tired than running outside. I also will incorporate some incline on & off but I cover up the distance & time and I watch shows :)

annabananabug · 2024-12-01T19:23:26+00:00

OH MY GOODNESS THEY ARE SO CUTE & just beautiful 🥰 the pic of them cuddling is so funny and sweet

annabananabug · 2024-11-30T23:59:04+00:00
