Congrats to reporter Jessica Willey who abc13 KTRK reports carved 30+ minutes off her Chevron Houston Marathon time and is now qualified for Boston Marathon!
"Truth. I never EVER thought I’d qualify for the #BostonMarathon," Willey posted on Instagram. "It wasn’t necessarily my goal this year, but I felt great and just went with it."
Willey posted "the conditions were perfect" on the day of the big race.
Running in Boston would be a return to Beantown for Willey who graduated from Boston University. As a student, she was a member of BU's Varsity Crew Team. In her bio, she states that her big challenge now is running in marathons.
Tell her congratulations!
