“Something about the ups and downs of training for such a physical feat as a marathon — that kind of vulnerability, the adversity you have to go through and breaking through walls together — and that experience as a team; it’s just a bonding thing that you can’t really replace or have from any other experience. And I think we both wanted it together,” she added.
