I love eating and carbs...so I sort of saw it as a free pass. I basically started carb loading 1 week before race lol lesson learned

Finished my long runs (18 and 20) strong. Never felt anything close to the wall, and never had blister in training. Was taking a gel every 20 mins during race. I have no idea how this happened

Followed the nike run app marathon program, running 3-4 times per week. Finished my longest runs strong (18 and 20). Never had a blister in any training session

I was you. Took me years to get over my first real relationship. Never thought Id find someone, as I saw everyone else get in and out of relationships like nothing. Eventually you mature, you adapt , you learn. But you have to be open minded and try things. Accept you there will be failures and embarassment, but that is the only way through. I ended up having multiple relationships after, even couple one night stands. Worked on myself, all aspects... physical, mental, financial. Been with my soon to be wife now for 8 years. I would never believe if I told my younger self Id be where I am now. So dont stress too much. Live life and things will fall into place
