It was only her third marathon. But her coaches, family, and maybe even Seidel herself had an inkling this was possible.
Follow that, of course, with the Trials. Seidel qualified by running awin at the Rock ’n’ Roll San Antonio Half Marathon in December 2019, then surprised her parents with plane tickets and an Airbnb in Atlanta. There was a mishap with their finish-line credentials, and they watched her unexpected second-place finish from an Irish pub.
“My brain in my normal functioning life can go haywire, a mile a minute,” Seidel said. But over long distances, she locks in and enters a flow state. “I think that’s why I love the marathon; you go to this place mentally that you don’t go with other, shorter types of races. You just find that line and you ride it as long as you can.”
That included skipping the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials—for a while, she’d considered running the 10,000 meters. In addition, she used the marathon she ran in London as a chance to practice her nutrition and other strategies, rather than an all-out effort. “Recovery is the reason why I am here today,” she said. “I wouldn’t be able to continue in this sport if I hadn’t gone through treatment.”
