You know, seeing all the support out there, seeing you give and get high-fives from police, random strangers, etc is great. But it makes me worry that people are going to never do this again because of that virus. I have a marathon late this year (2020) and am worried they are going to either cancel it, or put in some very crazy, draconian measures, and it will take all the fun and enjoyment out of it. (I'm going to need some high-fives during my run!)

I just ran the Virtual NYC Marathon. Trained for months. I made my own route, planned bathroom breaks, brought plenty of fuel which I depleted in the last 5 miles...Everything hurts but damn did it feel good to finish. At the end of it, I was so emotional. If I had any tears at the end, I would've let them out. I put my heart and soul into this.

Long distance running really strips you bare. You’re left with just the essentials and become more introspective and emotional. Anna, you’re a great runner and an amazing person.

I never realized I could get so emotional. I did it I kept saying. I felt great. This weekend I tackle 19 miles. It's all coming together. I know during and after the race I'm going to be an emotional wreck. We are all capable of doing more than what we think. It's mental.

Best of luck to all of you and thanks for the motivation !

Congrats to you too!! (Anna)

Such a massive personal challenge and achievement. I was in tears just watching! It brings back memories from when I rode the Ride London 100 in 2017, was so emotional and the support and cheering definitely energises you. Well done!

I totally felt your emotions as you were running. I ran my first (and only up to this point) marathon last November and was so emotional the last 8 or so miles. Whyyyyy is it so emotional? Congrats on a great finish and I cannot believe you ran and did a vlog the whole time! You're amazing!!

Simply wow... Can't wait to do my first marathon in April in Manchester. This was such a moving video 😭

I needed this video so incredibly much. Running my first marathon in Chicago this fall, and this gave me so much encouragement, I had tears in my eyes. Thank you and congratulations on finishing NYC!

Came for the running and sights, stayed for the feels. Good job Anna that looked amazing.
