Running the Smoky Mountains half marathon on September 7th, 2024, was an unforgettable adventure that tested my resilience and rewarded me with breathtaking views. The day before the race, I immersed myself in the natural beauty of Townsend, TN, by hiking around the Smoky Mountains. The serene landscapes and the majestic mountains were the perfect prelude to the race day. The marathon itself was exhilarating; the camaraderie among runners and the scenic route made every step enjoyable. Despite the unexpected twist of rain starting 7 miles in, my spirits remained high. It was my first experience running a half marathon under the rain, adding a layer of challenge but also a sense of achievement as I crossed the finish line. This race was not just about the distance covered but about embracing every moment, rain or shine.
