Fourteen years ago, Nicole Bubolz was standing along the Chicago Marathon course with her 8-year-old son, having just started running after giving birth to nine children, including three sets of twins.
"I looked at Simon at one point ... I looked at him and just said, 'I'm gonna do this someday. I'm gonna run this marathon. I just feel it in my gut,'" she said.
So 15 years after her first baby was born, Bubolz said she started with walking, and saw some success. But at some point, her success plateaued. "I was signed up for marathon in Chicago at the time and was really sad that I was going to miss it because I couldn't get back up because we had just moved in June and the marathon was going to be in September. So I was really sad about that," Bubolz said."And my husband inspired me to just find one down here in Florida. And so my first one was here in Florida about, I think it was six years ago I ran the Disney marathon.
Bubolz has been waking up around 3:15 a.m. every Friday to do her long runs in training -- and she doesn't do it alone.
