Are you looking to run your first marathon? Christine from Incline Village is joining our team to tackle hers sometime in the new year. She will work on a half marathon and then progress to her big goal from there.
Injury risk is much higher in new runners, so it's good to be mindful of things that could trigger overuse. A coach can really help here! We'll help Christine through her journey with ample recovery and easy strength and mobility exercises.
Good luck Christine!!
Mona Angéline is an unapologetically vulnerable writer, reader, book reviewer, artist, athlete, and scientist. She honors the creatively unconventional, the authentically "other". She shares her emotions because the world tends to hide theirs. She is a new writer, but her work was recently accepted in Flash Fiction Magazine, Grand Dame Literary, tiny wren lit, Down in the Dirt Magazine, The Viridian Door, The Machine, Whisky Blot Magazine, and The Academy of Mind and Heart. She loves to review books and has written them for the /tƐmz/ Review, the Ampersand Review, and the Beakful Litblog. Sooner or later she will have to condense this list… Mona is also a regular guest editor for scientific journals although she doesn't use a pen name when her engineering PhD degree is involved. She lives bicoastally in Santa Cruz, California, and in New York and savors life despite, or maybe because of, her significant struggles with chronic illness and mild disability.
