If you follow Carly Pearce on social media, then you know she is an avid runner, often posting pictures of her fitness tracker that shows the stats for her daily runs, which average over five miles a day.  Even though she usually runs over 26 miles a week, running all 26 miles at once is not something Carly thinks she’s up for.  She says, “I’ve never done a marathon. I’ve done several half marathons which is thirteen point one (miles).”

As much as Carly loves running, the “Hide the Wine” singer also knows her limits.  She says, “Every single time that I see the little path to go and it says ‘marathon this way,’ I remind myself in that moment, no matter when you have a great run and you get cocky and you think that you can run that, remember this moment, because you can’t. So I don’t know that I would ever do a full, but I love halves and hope to continue to do them.”

For now, Carly will continue her 5-7 mile daily runs so that she can enjoy her favorite red wine with little guilt about the extra calories.

Carly Pearce – running a marathon  :25

“I’ve never done a marathon. I’ve done several half marathons which is thirteen point one.  But I will say, every single time that I see the little path to go and it says ‘marathon this way,’ I remind myself in that moment, no matter when you have a great run and you get cocky and you think that you can run that, remember this moment, because you can’t. So I don’t know that I would ever do a full, but I love halves and hope to continue to do them.”
