Jessika Evelyn Heiser Instagram – Morning all! Hope everyone celebrating Thanksgiving had a super day!
Yesterday I ran my planned Half Marathon 13.1 miles! Over the past few years I’ve done a few 10K and 5K events but wanted to challenge myself again.
Last time I had done a half marathon it was September of 2013! It put into perspective for me just how quickly time moves of course but also how much I’ve grown as an adult but also in my physical fitness. (Photo shown)
My goal for yesterday’s half marathon was under 2 hours. I ended up doing between 2:12 and 2:16, the timing machines have it a bit wonky.
Regardless that wasn’t the goal. I’d still love to achieve it but I don’t want to dismiss this run. I thought it was awesome that looking through my highlights documenting my training I trained in the UK, Australia, Japan, France, and of course home.
I’ll be hobbling around for a few days because I definitely didn’t train appropriately for hills.
But for the girl who in High School couldn’t run half way around a track one time….i want her to know she’s doing damn good.
Now, going to get on a ✈️ and head to War Games!
Gratitude for growth and the hunger to continue to push for more! Let’s go! | Posted on 28/Nov/2025 17:00:15
