“It was the most exciting race experience I had ever had because I felt like I wasn’t hiding any part of myself in the race. [The San Francisco Marathon] set this bar on top of being a really exciting experience in general, it reignited my desire to do marathons... Such a joyous experience.”

“The course is amazing! During summertime, you're not gonna find any cooler weather in California. Don't be scared of the hills because like I said, the cooler weather, you don't even feel the hills.”

“I like this race because it's big enough to have everything you would want in a big race. Beautiful. Huge city, obviously. But it's small enough that there's innovation. And there's like a bravery in terms of what they do.”
