[oooookay]

me during the video: I want to run a marathon
*5 minutes after the video*
me: movie marathon let's go

[yoyo-uumt]

Everyone's here asking why she's crying but I'm here asking why I'm crying

[eheehe]

GREAT JOB TO MICHELLE BUT OML I LOVE HOW SUPPORTIVE AND POSITIVE THE COACH WAS

[gaberivera]

Can we appreciate how badass her coach was. He was really invested in her performance.

[neilafritts]

I’ve run 2 marathons and I’d just like to say that her pace is freaking fast like I could NEVER

[danaelizabeth]

I am a runner as well... I can say what she did in that amount of time and being able to qualify for Boston is truly mind blowing. Congratulations!

[thulanihlatshwayo]

I laughed, I cried... I’m going through a lot right now and want to start running. Super proud of you.

[MsOnesandy]

I feel like she should have highlighted the fact that she partly did so well bc she’s an ex-pro cyclist. People might think it’s normal to be able to do this intensity this quickly, not realizing they will likely get hurt. It’s also not normal for most to be able to do such a fast time in their first marathon

[Emzdra]

why did I find that so emotional and amazing!? When she crossed that line I felt so proud for her. Wow.

[ariannaschall]

Can we just talk about how she didnt even think she could finish but she did so good she qualified for one of the most pristegious marathons out there? Talk about inspiration.

[aesstricker]

Watched this two months ago, longest run was almost 2 miles and it almost killed me. Now I am up to five miles three times a week and am training for a 10k. So thanks for that!!

[bobbyjeremy]

y'all asking why shes crying? you have never had to push yourself to the point where everything breaks, but you still keep going

[athenakitty]

I don't think Michelle gives herself enough credit. She proves how amazing of an athlete she is every video, and this video exemplifies that! And she stays so humble about all of her many accomplishments!

[haha-yegl]

whoever did the editing and the camera work is truly A GIFTED PERSON THIS WAS AMAZING

[fredstolemysocks]

I felt bad when she said her bikes got stolen. She bikes mostly, right? Those must have been pro bikes :(

[johndee]

This lady is an athlete already. She was able to run the marathon in 3 hours?!

[piesaurus]

I too cry uncontrollably when I do something that I thought I couldn’t do like when I collect all the stars in Mario 64

[madelynzavala]

I trained for 10 weeks to run a 5K lmao

[silverlining]

she became taller, her hair became more voluminous, her skin went golden and beautiful, and she smiled. I wanna run a marathon now lmao.
but seriously she did amazing out there im really proud.
this is one of buzzfeeds gems i really loved this.

[lachmyster]

She's already fitter than 90% of people if she can jump straight in to 40 miles a week.... I got shin splints doing 10 miles a week... smh
