Hello readers! I decided to create a post filled with GIF images from Friends describing what it’s like training for / running a marathon. I hope this post brings you laughter during this not-so-laughable time! I did this in the past with New Girl GIFS!
When you finish that final long run:
When you show off that awkward runner’s tan:
When you’re halfway through the taper:
When you start carb loading during race week:
When you’re at the expo and want all the things:
When you’re wondering if you put the best personalization on your bib:
When your alarm goes off at an ungodly hour on race morning:
When you’re a ball of nerves and excitement:
When you use the porta potty:
When you get excited and start out too fast:
When you’re 7 miles in and someone tells you you’re almost there:
When you try to convince yourself that the weather is ideal:
When you try to act natural for the race photographers:
When you get your second wind:
When you start a conversation with a stranger to distract yourself:
When you wait until race day to try that new flavor of GU:
When duty calls at the most inopportune time:
When you hit the dreaded wall:
When you reach mile 26 and the crowd is roaring:
When you cross the finish line feeling like a champion:
When the volunteer hands you your medal:
When you try to change out of your sweaty clothes:
When you’re busy trying to process everything:
When you wake up the next morning and everything hurts:
When amnesia hits a week later and you look for your next race:
