Episode Notes

Two years ago when Getting Chicked first started, Megan shared that one of her biggest dreams was to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials. With a couple more marathons under her belt and a ton of hard work, she DID it!

In today's special edition of the pod, Megan walks us through her race at the McKirdy MicrOTQ from start to finish and breaks down how the marathon unfolded. She also shares some of her thoughts and final prep in the last week leading up to the race as well as her reflections now that she's officially an OTQ gal.
