"I felt really relieved and happy and proud, and just so thankful that I took a chance on myself and chose to keep believing in myself."

From the Marathon Trials to Boston to Chicago to Valencia, today Sara returns to the Ali on the Run Show for a year-end reflective. Plus, what Sara's excited about in 2025.
