Christina K has Learned a lot in Her Short Time as a Runner, and the Lessons Keep Coming!
My guest today, Christina K, describes herself as a daily blogger, sober runner, and mental shit stirrer.
Christina K, Running Golden Gate
Clearly, we will have no shortage of things to talk about today!
Going Sober
When Christina started running, drinking was a regular part of her regular routine.
But at a certain point, she realized the need to make a change in her lifestyle and focus more on living a healthy life.
The result: sobriety and a fondness for running.
Christina also pointed out that she doesn’t feel as though she traded one addiction (alcohol) for another (running), though she can definitely see how some could become addicted to our sport.

Preparing for Her First Marathon
Later this fall, Christina will be running her first marathon at CIM.
Training for a marathon, as anyone that has run the distance in the past is aware, has been burdensome.
But Christina feels like things have been going well and she has been dedicated to getting her miles in.
A big reason that her training has been going so well? Her husband has been more than willing to step up his parenting in order to allow her to get out for those long runs.
Running a marathon may be a solo endeavor, but it definitely helps to have some support along the way!
For Christina K, It’s ALWAYS Family First
