    Olympic trial hopeful mom(of 4) looking for a bib to my FIRST CIM. After a severe ankle sprain last year, I’ve been trying to get my racing legs back. February-May of this year I did not run because my ankle once again had a torn ligament(did not fully heal from months before). Finally feel like my legs are working well now and I want to give CIM a shot.

    I want to shoot for under a 2:45 marathon. This is a great course for offical fast times and it would mean so much for me as I try to qualify for the olympic trials in the coming year. Email: dianatm12@gmail.com

    I’m a new mom, training through breastfeeding and sleepless nights at one year postpartum and looking for a bib to chase my longtime goal of running a sub 3 hour marathon!

    Hi everyone! I’m hoping to find a CIM bib for my very first marathon!

    I’m a mom of two little boys, and after losing 100 pounds, running has become such a huge part of my life. I’ve spent months training for CIM, but the truth is, I didn’t register when I had the chance because I was scared. I honestly didn’t believe I was capable of finishing 26.2 miles.
    But I kept showing up, putting in the miles, and somewhere along the way, I started believing in myself. Unfortunately, by then CIM had sold out.
    Crossing that finish line would mean so much more to me than just completing a marathon. It’s something I never imagined I’d be capable of doing.If anyone has a bib they’re willing to transfer, I would be beyond grateful for the opportunity to purchase it through the official transfer process!

    Thank you for considering me!

    I don’t live in Cali, I just earned my BQ, I’m not recovering from an injury or illness, I will likely be finishing at an average time. But DANG!! I really want to run the CIM this December. If you can find some humor in my humility I would gladly accept your unneeded bib. 🩷 camnjess@msn.com

    Don’t let the lesson be that daddy sucks at planning ahead so he missed this cool opportunity… 🤦🏻‍♂️😅

    It’s the middle of the night and you’ve decided that unfortunately you can’t run CIM this year. You’re looking to transfer you bib. No need to worry, send it my way and know you’ll be making my day, month and year. Father of 4, took a long break from running and just ran my first marathon on Labor Day. Been training since May and am hoping to BQ.
    Thanks for the consideration.
