I’ll do a proper recap tomorrow but basically it was 8 miles of race, 10 miles of enduring stomach cramp, and 8 miles of lots of walking and vomiting. Yet, I am grateful to be here. Marathon once again humbled me. Today is not the day I felt strong but I know I will continue to chase that day.
Today history was made in this course and I am so proud of every runner and walker to keep pushing and just belief we can do it.
I have always loved traveling and travel often for work. But 2.5 years ago we moved to Manila and started to travel more for leisure. It was the start of our journey to explore the world and ourselves as a family. My daughters love traveling with passion and always want to go to new places, meet new people, try new food.
This blog will record our journey in this new living style and my thoughts around it.

Coco, you battled like a warrior to the finish line!! I cannot even start to imagine how hard that must have been. You can be very proud!
You were so well prepared – and yet we never know what the marathon will throw at us. You did it – enjoy the victory!
but you still finished!
