Fitz Koehler takes you behind the scenes of Donna National Marathon weekend—and heads up: this is not the official Donna post-race recap. This is the unfiltered, behind-the-curtain version, packed with backstage announcer antics, volunteer Love, book signings, VIP dinners, and a brutally cold race day full of big Emotions and bigger energy.

She celebrates survivors, shares unforgettable encounters, and spills the funny, heartfelt, chaotic highlights that made the weekend pure magic—plus wardrobe battles, smart cold-weather racing tips, and a reminder to support the Donna Foundation.
