I see you and I am riding a parallel path in terms of turning 30, dealing with PCOS & the post marathon blues (& whether to run another one). Thanks for sharing - it is challenging but super important to shed light on. Onward and upward 🫶

I heavily resonate this article. This summer I will be turning 32 and I definitely feel the heat of those crossroads as I am working towards my first marathon this fall. Although difficult, I frequently try to remind myself that my pace is the right pace for me in every aspect of life. Thank you for making us all feel like we aren't alone in this journey of life!

Thank you so much for sharing - love that mantra too! Definitely never alone, just have to take it one day at a time and not let the big stuff distract from the beauty of today! xx

I wouldn’t completely negate the fact that getting pregnant MIGHT come easy for you! With that being said, you could get some basic labs drawn to see where your estrogen and progesterone levels are during ovulation. Then depending on those decide to run Chicago or not…. Coming from someone who struggled to get pregnant with our first I know how frustrating it can be 🤍

Thank you so much for sharing your journey with PCOS, fertility and how it pertains to your running ❤️ it can feel like the clock is ticking in every direction (running fitness, fertility, career goals) and it helps to know that we aren’t alone in it. And you’re absolutely not alone!! Thank you for reminding me today that I’m not either.

Totally agree, and thank you for sharing - the clock is always ticking, but a great reminder for us to enjoy the moments we're in and not get too anxious about the uncertainty that lies ahead! xx
