I SIGNED UP FOR MY FIRST RACE IN 3 YEARS.

[@literaturelissy1274]

I swear I just got goosebumps when you were comparing your love for running with the love you feel in a romantic relationship. I FELT THAT SO MUCH and I really wanna go for a run right now hahaha. Excited to see what's ahead for you in 2023!

[@darlingrunnerpt3342]

Paige seems like such a fun person to run with.

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

she is the best!!!

[@RoyRosas]

Lotta good vibes in this video. Love when the california burritos make an appearance too, you should for sure always get one for those of us far away in the midwest and beyond. Cant wait to follow along for the ride as you train for your race!

[@madsbaird7830]

me watching this post swim practice treating myself to an acai bowl even though its like 30 degrees out~a vibe

[@littlerunner4505]

Yay!!!! I'm glad you signed up for something. You absolutely are not done. You have so much time to work on your running potential, it's not even funny. You might end up in distances you didn't do before. It's going to take time to get back into it and you won't be as fast as before, at first. I was never as fast as you in high school but the crazy thing is I'm like 10 lbs heavier than high school and faster (not at the 800m/1600m 😩 - but the longer stuff, 5K+). You could smash longer distance stuff with training if you want it! Carlsbad 5000 is such a fun race! If only it didn't conflict with Boston I'd do it more often.

[@rocknation7065]

It’s time to get prepared now! 🤔

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

TRUEEEE lets goooo!

[@saraaube3697]

Emma your videos cheer me up every time! I just love your personality and outlook on life

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

Thank you so much!!

[@futbollinz4]

such a good job with the ad portion. that seems so hard to do naturally and you nailed it 🎉

[@maddiemooneyy]

three long runs in one week is the absolute last thing I would ever want to do ever

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

hahahhaha filling a void

[@jasoncaporale6470]

I know exactly what you mean. I took a long time off from running post college and lost all my fitness. Just keep putting in the work day after day, it will come back!

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

That's the plan! Thank you :)

[@chole18]

You go girl, we believe in you!

[@deviljames]

we all have to create new chapters in life... no worries.... great video...

[@annikaaho7923]

in my romantic relationship with running era as well 🥰🥳

[@christinaanderson984]

Paige reminds me of Dana Lynn Bailey.. Love the energy

[@deviljames]

you ladies shoe-display spins my mind baby... ha ha... thank-you... god-bless... your atheletic determinations are very inspiring.

[@kelliestroupe1796]

I raced the Carlsbad 5k this year and am planning on going back next year! Such a good race!

[@briannemartinez2549]

Romance=track workouts/long runs 😂 Yesssssss 🎉

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

hahahha idk how to even explain it but its so true

[@gwilymeades]

You're in the zone! Keep it going!

[@DURRELL.RASHAD]

The way you described your need to run, and fulfilling a part of your life is exactly how I feel about my move to San Diego in May. It's weird how strong certain feelings are lol

[@kaylizhug]

*watches this while also wearing a comfy*

[@deviljames]

gotta cook the new ovens in the long run baby

[@valeriehearn9800]

I feel the same challenging the all or nothing just bc I’m no longer perfect at it doesn’t mean it doesn’t count

[@fabi8731]

You know what would be sick if you brought back Q&A and had more poop stories and stuff. That's how I actually discovered your channel lol

[@averygaming8707]

So proud of you

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

THANK YOU!

[@sophietripp409]

Where is Paige’s running belt from?

[@kendrakoster7163]

Emma PLEASE make a merch line of racing singlets we can buy!!

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

I am going to try and figure out how to do this this year!

[@boydsharp]

I wish you could come to Tucson in March 2023 and run with me in my very first 10K run.

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

good luck to you!

[@laurensivewright9283]

It is hard to say no to a good burrito. Amen sister.

[@heathers7960]

Different genres of girls 😂

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

lol so true tho

[@nro337]

Lets gooooo

[@8960056]

Your ad made me take my iron... 😇

[@BField97]

Good news…she didn’t break up with me🎉

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

YAY! :-)))))))

[@Amedo98621]

Just know that the void you feel is in all of us! You're not alone. I think that void we all feel is not for anything temporary or on this earth, or else running or other things would do it. But it's only Jesus, which is such good news. And he's given us running and races too!

[@daveconvoy5793]

Can you beat Paige right now over say 10k?

[@EmmaAbrahamson]

i have no idea and my friend is not my competitor lol?

[@daveconvoy5793]

@@EmmaAbrahamson well done on the fitness work recently😃
