I started creating videos in 2018 when I wanted to do an ultra marathon. At that time, I had taken a long break to remodel a house we had bought before selling the house we lived in, so I spent every free moment trying to get it finished so we could sell our current home and move in. Once that was done, I was ready to return to training and needed a big goal.

The Beginning
When I started training, a friend knew I loved making videos and mentioned that I should make a documentary about my journey. After recording my training for a few weeks, I realized I wasn’t going to be interested in going back through all of the footage, so I decided to start making weekly videos that friends and family could follow along with how it was going. I called in 26 Weeks, which was how long my training cycle was leading into the race.
The Present
Six years later, my channel has grown to over 12,000 subscribers, with the first video receiving over 120,000 views. I am continuing to document my training, racing, and life journey to show what it’s like to be in my late 40s with two young, busy daughters, a career, and ambitions of my own. Creating this channel has given me so many opportunities and allowed me to meet so many amazing people.
