Congrats on a great race and getting that 6th ⭐! Getting sick before the race can sure rattle one's confidence, but you handled it so well. I have 2 stars so far and hope to become a 6-star finisher one day. I have to get faster so I can qualify for Boston and I need to get luckier for the lottery in the other races. 🤞

[@tessontherun]

Thank you for your kind words! It's always inspiring to hear from fellow runners who share the goal of becoming a 6-star finisher. I ran for charity in Tokyo. That can be one way to enter. Good Luck!

Awesome! See you in stockholm!

[@tessontherun]

After Tokyo I believe you can run for a PB any day :)

[@alanshrimpton6787]

Well done Tess. Must be nice to get that 6th star.

[@tessontherun]

Thank You! Yeah, long journey ended :)

[@sawdoctony]

hello Tess I am very impressed that you can run a marathon with even splits. I have run two marathons and while I have avoided hitting the wall and stopping, I have slowed down in the last few kilometres - legs feeling heavy and running form is terrible. Could you address this please in one of your videos - how to stay mentally strong when the body is getting tired? Best wishes from Ireland!

[@sawdoctony]

By the way I am 63 and finished my second marathon last weekend in 3 hours 30 mins 59 secs which is a good for age time for my age group.

[@tessontherun]

wow its a fast time!💪🏼 I think this was my 15th marathon and I am way better to handle the mental part of the marathon than some years ago. Its a very good topic to address. Thanks for your comment!

[@chi-kitpang6316]

Absolutely amazing achievement! You have given me inspiration to try and get the 6 stars in a few years. Good luck in 3 months on PB attempt. How many days to get over jet lag/how best to deal with it please?

[@tessontherun]

Thank you! Congratulations on setting your sights on the 6 stars! It's a challenging and rewarding goal :) Jet lag is hard. But I gradually adjusted my sleep for at least 2-3 hours from home. And then just to try to stay awake as long as possible although you are tired.

[@chi-kitpang6316]

Thank you Tess

[@christinaclementson]

Congratulations Tess! Super strong marathon and excellent splits 👌👌 Well done on your six stars! I will have 4 by the end of this year. Only Berlin and Tokyo to go!! ⭐️⭐️

[@tessontherun]

Thank you Christina! Two fast course's left for you then. :) I loved Tokyo and its course. I will go back if I have some luck in the lottery. Good Luck on the rest of your 6-star journey! 🤩

[@christinaclementson]

@@tessontherun Thanks Tess. I’m hoping for 3:30 ish in Chicago this year! I’m running Boston again next month but would be happy with 3:45 there because of the course. Good luck with your next challenge!
