Want to run NYC Marathon? Asics NYC Marathon Bib #giveaway

What is your biggest accomplishment? Mine was running my first marathon, at one of the most prestigious races - the 2013 NYC Marathon. I had no idea how fortunate I was when my name was drawn at the 2013 lottery. I had to hear over and over again how "lucky" I was, while others questioned if my blog helped (that made me laugh as I am, nor will ever be that big of a blogger). While I know luck was involved, I really felt like it was meant to be my first.

I signed up for the lottery with a lot of wine educed encouragement from my friend Darlynn. Two months later, I received the notification that I would be running running the 2013 NYC Marathon. A few months after that, I crossed the finish line in Central Park, to become a marathoner in my favorite city.

It was an amazing cold and wet day. Coming across the Queensboro bridge into Manhattan to find a sea of thousands of spectators was the most amazing experience of my life - regardless of how tired I was at mile 16 after crossing very high bridges. I smiled the entire time and I would never trade that experience. It is my dream to run NYC again and one day, I hope to run it with my future husband and/or best friend.
