13.1 miles, two countries, and SO many emotions🇲🇽❤️ The @Binational Race was easily one of the most physically, mentally, and emotionally challenging races I’ve ever run. Between the heat, elevation, and tough course, I was STRUGGLING! But beyond the physical challenges, this race meant so much more to me. As a first-generation Mexican American, I spent so much of those miles reflecting on how fortunate I am to even experience something like this. Being able to cross the border so freely, especially during a time when that same crossing comes with so much fear and uncertainty for so many families, is a privilege I don’t take lightly. I couldn’t stop thinking about my parents and everything they sacrificed to give me the opportunities I have today. Because of them, I get to experience moments like these, and that alone had me emotional throughout the race ❤️‍🩹 To top it all off, getting to meet so many of you after the race and feeling all that love and support was just the cherry on top 😭🫶🏽 This race HUMBLED me in every possible way, but my heart is so full. Forever grateful for these experiences ❤️🇲🇽
