Qualifying Race and Time: 2022 Grandma's Marathon 2:14:50

How did you feel when you qualified? What was that experience like? Grandma's was one of the first big OTQ races for 2024, and it was really cool to be running with a ton of other Americans with similar goals. This was my second time qualifying, so this time I was much more aware of the excitement from everyone else hitting the time. I enjoyed witnessing all the smiles and race stories as we limped away from the finish line. 

What dream are you chasing at the Trials? I just want to take advantage of the opportunity to face all the country's best marathoners in one. The Olympic team may be a bit out of reach with the new standards, but I would love to squeeze into the top 20 or even top 10.
