    Great work! Hitting your time goal at Boston is an incredible achievement. You must have been overwhelmed with joy and fulfillment when crossing that finish line. Keep on crushing your goals!

    How did I not see you?! Bib 9295 here and I too ran my first sub-3 in 2:58:32 🎉 that rain at the end was treacherous, way to power through! I’m also laughing at the first 2 miles, mine were 7:10 and 6:37, just shows how antsy we were in the packed field. Congrats, soak up the major accomplishment!!!

    Congratulations on sub 3!! Incredible running!! Those paces blow my mind. I had a similar - although slower 😂 - experience on Boylston. I had to sprint when I realised I could go under 3:40 but had already hit 26.2 miles as I turned onto Boylston. I just love Boston so much. Will definitely be back next year for my 3rd Boston ❤️🦄❤️

    Congratulations on reaching your Boston Marathon goal.! I don't know if I would of trusted the cotton ball in your racing shoes thinking it could of moved around and shifted causing more rubbing or discomfort but I know how exspensive racing shoes are these days as well.Sometimes the GPS and time on a watch can be slightly off.Always keep in mind the start time and your chip time are 2 different things. (Chip time is your true time that starts as your foot or chip crossed the start mat.Maybe it took a minute to cross the start mat w the crowds of runners.So the clock at the end isn't your true time.Amazing you can sprint it in after 26 miles most of us are just hanging in keeping a pace that we can handle since the legs are shot and tired,especially w the big hills in Boston earlier.Great work Caitlyn.Stay cute and optimistic. 🌄

Having run Boston myself the experience never gets old and reliving the experience every year this month is just as special. Congrats on your first Boston, amazing job to break 3 hours, especially in the weather you had! You will have many more for sure! Seem you have a really nice channel so I have subscribed and looking forward to watch your other videos.

  • @jimwaxer8166
    @jimwaxer8166 Рік тому +2

    Out of curiosity I checked out you spilts. Incredible pacing every 5K the first half coming though right on pace at 1:29:52. That is hard to do. Everyone goes out too fast.
    Great effort the last mile running 6:32 pace to break 3.
    Outstanding race.
