    She qualified for Boston… and still didn’t get in.
    So what changed between missing the BQ buffer in 2024 and running a confident 4:09 in 2025?

    In this She Run Strong coaching call, Gretchen Fermann breaks down the real shift: smarter pacing, year-on-year consistency, strength that actually stuck, and the “invisible” factor too many women ignore... sleep + hormones in the menopause transition.

    If you’re chasing a Boston qualifier while juggling life, work stress, and a body that’s changing… this episode will show you what it really takes to turn “almost” into “I did it.”
