Strides Through H-Town, Ep. 3: Krystle Hodge: From Imposter Syndrome To a 3:35 Marathon (23)
What if you didn’t start running until later in life — and still ran a 3:35 marathon? Well, this runner did just that.
In Episode 3 of the Strides Through H-Town series on Through Their Stride, I’m joined by Krystle Hodge, Houston Marathon Ambassador and three-time Houston Marathon finisher. Krystle ran a huge PR of 3:35:29, all without a background in competitive sports.
We talk about:
- Starting running later in life and pushing past the mental hurdles
- Battling imposter syndrome as a runner
- Why community matters more than pace
- Sharing the highs and lows of running on social media
If you’ve ever questioned whether you “belong” in the running world, this episode is for you.
