Well done Kush! 2 marathons in 4 weeks is not an easy feat. Completing them both is an amazing achievement a lot of people can only dream of having the opportunity as a once in a lifetime box!

I came across your video as I've been watching NYC Marathon vlogs this past week. This is amazing! I hope to be there next year. Like you, I'm a relatively new runner. Started January 2022. Did my first 10k Nov 2022 and then kept going to do a Half Marathon in January 2023! It was the most exhilarating moment to finish that half!!! I went on to do 2 virtual half marathons. Now doing another half marathon in Jan 2024 (pushing for a better time) and really hoping to be in NYC for my first full marathon next year. Watching your video really encourages me, I've been watching so many lately and it really helps to see other's experiences. Congratulations on completing both Chicago and NYC! That's amazing. How did you handle the cramping? Salts, gels? What helped you?

[@RunwithKush]

That’s an amazing progression. NYC energy is unmatched. I hope you get to run it soon. I think I cramped less and later in NY mainly because I was putting a lot less effort in as I was completely tired. I’m yet to figure out how to avoid it. Probably just run more and strength training. Weird thing is I cramped very little in my first marathon and it’s the best one I’ve run to date in terms of being able to hold a goal pace till the end.

Interesting how that happens, that you didn't cramp on your first but have since. Hopefully you get to sort it out. Thank you for you reply. Found out a parent in one of my kids' class ran it this year and said the same thing, the NYC energy is unmatched. I look forward to it. @@RunwithKush

Hi. Congratulations. 🎉 I actually started in the same wave and corral. Do you maybe have any raw footage that you are willing to share where I might find me? Just for my personal use, of course. Thanks for your help. Best.

[@RunwithKush]

Sure. If you send me a DM on instagram (@run.with.kush) with your email, I can put whatever I have from the corrals in a Google drive folder for you.
