The Pursuit of Passion by Courtney Kutler

  • Summary

  • I toed the line in the “City of Runnerly Love” on November 21. I was, more than anything, grateful to be healthy and ready to run. As with any marathon, I had the nervous of energy of what might be. Would I be able to complete the 26.2 miles? Would I feel strong? Would I run fast? Would I run smart? I took a moment to pause, smile, reflect and find my inner confidence. In listening to the “We Can Do Hard Things” podcast the day before the race, Abby Wambach reflected on her first marathon in New York. She said, for inspiration she asked herself, “Who are you now?” That question kept playing on repeat in my head throughout the race. Who am I now? The answer shifted every time I asked the question. I am strong, I am tough, I am someone who perseveres, I am a mother, I am thirsty, I am a coach, I am a wife, I am a runner, I am tired, I am smart, I am patient, I am hungry, I am an Ironman, I am optimistic, I am sore, I am resilient, I am determined, I am leading by example, I am loved. I am so much more than one setback, one race, one goal. I am not defined by my challenges nor my accomplishments, and yet these same experiences shape who I am becoming.
