That man that hyped you up when you were crying at the finish line. Brought me to tears, he was so sweet

anna i genuinely was crying for you, i am so proud. as someone who is in recovery for both anorexia and bulimia you are my biggest inspiration and you have inspired me to fuel myself so i can one day run a marathon too. you have no idea how inspiring you are!!

“I used to think I’ve Not got the right body for running but fuck that I’m doing it” that quote is inspirational mind over matter

When you started crying as you crossed that finish line, I no joke couldn't hold back my tears. I recently ran a half marathon - and I felt the exact same when I finally made it. You did an incredible job and this achievement of yours encouraged me to push myself to complete the full distance in may next year. Thank you Anna, you're amazing.

Why is this making me actually ball. So proud of you! You did incredible ❤ thank you for showing us honest videos xxx

bro i literally got tears in my eyes seeing the joy in your face and when you said fuck that about not having the body to be a long distance racer. you are such a motivation and safe space, thank you for everything and be proud of yourself

i ran the berlin marathon a week earlier and i totally felt every emotion you felt in this video. hardest thing i have ever done. i cried so much at the end when i finished, just like you. this is such a huge accomplishment! be proud.

YAY IVE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR THIS! For the millionth time - I truly am so proud of you. Watching you grow and push yourself and try new things makes me feel so warm. You truly feel like one of my closest friends!❤️

Such an honest video!! Well done! I’ve run 12 marathons and I know you go through every emotion possible during those 26.2 miles! This was not sugar coated, you told it how it is. You completed it, you should be super proud 😊

you’re truly an inspiration to us all Anna, eternally proud of you and all you’ve accomplished 🤍

Cried with you I can only imagine how that felt.. congratulations on finishing❤️ you’re inspiring me as I’m starting to train for a marathon this week!🥰🥰

Anyone can finish a run when feeling strong and race feels easy. The real races are won when you want to stop and quit but you keep going.

I cried watching you cry, you smashed it! WELL DONE. YOU ARE AMAZING.

I know I’m 2 months late but omg I’m so freaking proud of you! Congratulations! Pat yourself on the back cuz girl you finished a damn marathon! I kept up with your running journey from the start and it actually motivated me to start running. I cried watching you cross the finish line, it’s amazing to see how far you’ve come. I stopped running for a couple of months bc of some emotional stuff but I did my first run in a while today and I can’t wait to get back into it. Sending you lots of love and support from Guatemala! 🤍🤍🤍🇬🇹🇬🇹

u can be so proud of yourself anna! you are so strong bc running a marathon is in my point of view one of the hardest thing to achieve (i’m talking about sport area)!! You literally make me cry so much. You are such an inspirational woman and you cannot imagine how you help so many of us who struggle with different kind of thing like eating disorders, stress, body image,etc.. So thank you for being you

i have million tears in my eyes watching you and how far you’ve come, anna i am incredibly proud of you , you did your best and i love you ❤

so incredibly proud of you ❤️❤️🫶🏻

You did so well anna !! Love yourself enough for that and you’ve inspired so many others 💕💕

The marathon humbles you so fast, great highs and lows, congrats on finishing!

ahh I cried watching this! so inspiring Anna, well done

crying the whole way through this! so proud of you!!!

i'm crying with you anna,huge well done my lovely,you absoultely smashed it,you should be so so proud of yourself and everything you did,you are incredible❤

Well Done!! It can happen to anyone of all running experiences. You can only really tell if you’re gonna have a good one, when you you’re running it, and If you’re gonna bonk, or generally have a bad one, the London marathon is one of the best to do it, because of the support, and the really generous cut off times. Enjoy all the aches and pains, you’ve earned them 😂

Anna the way I literally cried watching this, you’re amazing this was so inspiring and I can’t thank you enough for how much you’ve helped me. Keep shining girl love you 🥹🥹🤍🫶🏼

CONGRATS Anna, been there! It's a milestone for anyone- and one of those things that is a MENTAL head-game, willing yourself to finish, maintain a pace, etc. 4x marathons here, many more Tris, and a few halfs thrown in. I thought it was the hardest thing I'd ever done at that pointy in my life (20's), but then I took up mountain climbing and guiding, and that was even tougher: up to 50# on your back, going up 30 to 50 degree slopes, at altitude. Wishing you well....and LISTEN to your body, from training, recuperation, to dietary needs. Also, consider doing a proper cycle of "carb loading".....depleting your body and then loading up for race day; it really does work. Glycogen= Fuel.

so so proud of you, anna!!!

I have tears in my eyes…Anna you are amazing❤️

I have tears in my eyes🥺 You are incredible Anna, you inspire me everyday and I am so so proud of you🫶

I am literally crying through this🥺 genuinely inspiring me to want to accomplish something like this, so proud of you anna🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Dude I did not expect to cry watching this HAHAH but here we are... you should be so fricken proud. This video was so encapsulating of what it's really like. I did my first 1/2 mara earlier this year and for me (a runner, not an amazing one though) that was bloody hard. and ALSO - thank you for your comment about how you used to think you didn't have a 'runner's body'!!! so so important and something I'm finally coming to terms with too. You're a gem anna, congrats ❤❤🎉

Omg Iv got absolutely no idea who you are my lovely but I’m sat here sobbing - ur emotion is palatable and infectious - bless you - u made it - u are a marathoner ….. massive congratulations my darling 💪💥🫶😘😘

an actual inspiration! to yourself and all of us xxxx

Tell me why I cried while watching this. So proud of you!! I totally understand all of the emotional tears, I cried during my first race MANY times for so many different reasons. YOU DID IT!!!

I see you since 2020 and GIRL YOU ARE AMAZING!!! so strong girl, keep doing

Marathons are so hard at first you go through so many physical and emotional stuff but the strength of mind you showed is brilliant we’ll done pal the next one ain’t as bad but still a challenge people around these races is what gets you through it

The way you looked at the woman when receiving your medal was so pure. Well done Anna!

This made me ball!! Feel so proud of you❤️

Great work. I also ran my first marathon ... yesterday. Like your stitch, I started having ankle issues at mile 8. By 16 my pace fell off completely and I pushed through to finish in 6:42. Oh my. The marathon is a real education about oneself. Congrats on ensuring!

We are all literally so proud of you Anna, you have come so far from a few months ago and you did so well!!! :))

Please use this platform to inform more people to stop these crazy challenges. A marathon is not easy, if it was, it wouldn't require about 3-4 months of continuous training just to be done safely. You are young and used to working out and still had issues. Imagine the average people who don't workout but just follow all the weird challenges, not knowing what's the cost. I've seen people pass out and later found 1 of them died, on a marathon in the heat. Please people, be more aware of your limits, nothing against overcoming limits and boundaries, but be aware of what they are and don't try to overcome them too much, it could cost much more than you think.

So proud of you! I just finished my first marathon today in Chicago. Wheels fell of the train at 25K and walked a lot after that. I know your pain as well as your huge accomplishment! I can’t believe I did that. 🏃🏽‍♂️🏅🎉

This made me cry omg I’m so proud of u Anna!!!! When you have Millie a hug I started crying such a raw pure moment ❤

Absolutely balling my eyes out, you are AMAZING, your body is INCREDIBLE and so strong- I’m doing a marathon in a week and your videos and marathon updates have been so inspiring this whole time!! So so so SO much love ❤❤❤❤❤ congratulations you’re a marathoner baby ;)

So unbelievably proud of you

Girl! You are simply incredible!!!!! Do not ever underestimate yourself❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍 anna i genuinely was crying for you, i am so proud. as someone who is in recovery for both anorexia and bulimia you are my biggest inspiration and you have inspired me to fuel myself so i can one day run a marathon too. you have no idea how inspiring you are!!

You did amazing Anna! Brings back memories of my struggle at Edinburgh last year when I collapsed with cramp at mile 24 🤣 No better feeling in the world than crossing that line knowing you gave it everything 👏

YOU DID IT ANNA!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 I was literally crying at the end 😭😭😭 goosebumps!

jeepers, I was cutting onions watching this. Running my first marathon in June and found this to be very inspirational. Thanks for posting.

I just ran my first marathon at 55! It was a life changing experience! Congrats to you! Great video!

This made me cry Anna🥹 you are such an inspiration to me ❤

I’m from Greenwich, so cool to see everyone there! huge congrats Anna this is an incredible achievement x

oh wow!! Congrats Anna! You did amazing ❤

Well done. That was a fantastic effort. Pushing through is the definition of the marathon. So much is mental strength. On such a big positive life event not getting excited is so difficult. The excitement, adrenaline and running a little bit quickly at the start make respiration efficiently really difficult. Sometimes we can mistake it for dehydration because we're struggling and we take on to much water which moves the stitch from the diaphram to cramp in the stomach. To suffer from stich that badly and finish you done amazingly well. Great truthful video. I'm going to go back and catch up with your journey. Cheers.

OMG so exciting!! 🤩🤩🤩 I LOVE that your mum walked with you 🥹💕💕

incredible … congratulations anna!! beautiful video 🥹🥹

literally crying, this video was so beautiful and inspiring :,)

Wow I cried with you watching this! So proud of you💕💕

i volunteered at the Chicago Marathon yesterday, but only saw the runners after they've crossed the finish line. It's so good to see a glimpse into how it looked along the way! You did SO GOOD ANNA! ran a freaking marathon!! 🤍👏

AHHHMMAAAZING Anna!!!!! I'm screaming for you!! 👏👏👏👏👏 You are seriously incredible. From sharing your ed recovery story to now this, wow just wow I have no words 🥹🥹🥹You've inspired me so much, to the point we're I'm even documenting my own weight gain journey. I never thought I could actually listen to my body but watching how you have transformed your thinking and relationship with your mind and body has given me so much hope and faith. Sending you all my love from LA xoxo 🤗❤❤💕💕💜💜💜💜

ur amazing ❤ u literally inspired me to sign up to my citys marathon which is coming up in march!! im going to be doing a half marathon and raise money for eating disorder organisations❤️ thanku for inspiring me

Running my first full marathon in November and kinda scared. You did awesome! I cried with you

I am running my first marathon in October. I was aiming for 315, after watching you, now I am aiming for 320.

the man at the end i would have sobbed. i was crying just watching.

Congrats!!! I’m about to run my 7th marathon in Amsterdam. Still chasing to break sub 5

You inspire me so so much

hope you are okay anna. bit worried about you. hope you are looking after yourself xxx

FYI: You actually shouldn't do yoga before running. Having looser muscles makes you more likely to injure yourself while running. Afterwards is fine. I also never have coffee before a run because of the dehydration and dry mouth factor (and it races your heart). The green tea is probably good . . .less caffeine but still enough to wake up without causing other issues. I hope to do London one day. Seems fun.

You are soo inspiring ❤

i ;legit welled up watching this lmao! well done anna

Well done Anna!
