Running the Boston Marathon in Terrible Weather - My Experience (2018, gojo runner)

Navigating through some of the toughest Boston Marathon conditions the race has ever seen.

So great you could record your experience, and include the experience of your spectators . My phone was so buried, I never took a single picture of such an epic experience. Thanks for sharing!

[@gollum1at]

definitely my favourite Boston Marathon video! incredible how you kept on smiling, unbelievable the crowd bearing that conditions - that's Boston

Running a 5k tomorrow and it’s going to rain. This was commendable and very motivating! I know this was years ago but congrats on finishing, in such weather conditions! Have to go get a poncho now haha

[@npstallion01]

I had a rainy marathon coming up on Sunday, I love everything about this video. You have a great smile! Congrats on an awesome race and thanks for posting this!

[@eliblue70]

Congratulations! Whether it's your first or tenth, you are now a part of history! See you in April!

[@leslierobbins5835]

I’m running tomorrow in the rain - thank you for showing me how to get it done!

[@lindac9347]

I was thrilled to be there. It was my first Boston as well. Being from Vermont I was well dressed-wet but warm. Felt the cold afterwards for sure! Wasn’t able to record anything so I’m psyched to see this, thank you! Congrats

[@JolieHales]

Congrats to YOU, Linda! Wish I would have worn layers like you did -- it definitely wasn't Huntington Beach like I trained in! Next time, for sure!

[@Second2LastPioneer]

Oh my gosh, I can't believe how much I cried watching this. A-mazing!

[@ediliagutierrez2940]

Congratulations 🎊 you look so happy 😀

[@JolieHales]

Thank you!! I was!! (Especially after a post-race warm bath!)

[@JimmyHales]

"I've never seen them wear this much clothes" -me LOL, I love that you included that

[@JolieHales]

Hahahaha, it's an authentic reaction!

[@goruloveguy]

Brave, I’m gonna run this year in rain. This is so helpful.

[@JolieHales]

Good luck! It'll still be awesome! My advice is to wear tights and put either plastic or rubber gloves over your running gloves so they stay dry. Have fun!!

[@karenlhoule]

Your experience closely matches mine from last year. Except I wasn't quite as chipper as you. Thank you for posting this...I revisited the experience through yours.

[@JolieHales]

That was one crazy day, wasn't it? Are you running this year? Looks like another rainy one, except much warmer.

[@karenlhoule]

@@JolieHales I'm not running this year. Are you? I was sort of relieved that I didn't qualify for this year. I don't know if I could handle the weather again! But I will never forget my experience. Thanks again for posting!

[@JolieHales]

I'm not running this either (currently 8 months pregnant and would probably go into labor, hahaha), but we definitely ran during a memorable year!!

[@PoetWithPace]

Oh Jolie that was awesome! Great to relive my first Boston too through your perspective. Hope you enjoy my VLOG of the race also :-)

[@frankshorter449]

Way to go Jolie. Looks like you had fun! 🏃🏻‍♀️✌️

[@JolieHales]

Thanks Frank! Despite freezing my butt off, I had a blast!

[@aliarif5816]

Your such a fun person!!!

[@JolieHales]

Awe, shucks! Thanks Ali!

[@dmitrimolotilov6561]

[@JolieHales]

Thank you so much, Rhonel!

[@sagarchavan2922]

Nice 👍

[@cocopoco2006]

This year doesn’t look any better....😢😢😢

[@JolieHales]

I know!! What are the chances??

[@cocopoco2006]

Jolie Hales it turned out not bad... it stopped raining 30min before the race and the sun came out... it drizzled towards evening, which cooled us off... it was little rain, but I thought of runners of 2018...

[@JolieHales]

I saw! So awesome! I was so happy for you all! How did your race go?

[@cocopoco2006]

Jolie Hales amazing!!! It started out with thunder storm, then the sun came out and felt like sauna... then later it rained! I still think 2018 was a toughest year...😂

[@JolieHales]

Hahaha, go figure my year was the toughest! So glad it worked out well for you! Just means I'll have to go back someday! Congratulations!!
