Pia Wurtzbach Reveals Challenges She Encountered During Traning For NYC Marathon 2022
NYC MARATHON 2022 – Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach revealed the challenges she encountered during her training for the New York City marathon.
Last July, Pia Wurtzbach first revealed that she was training to make her debut at the New York City Marathon happening this November 6. She previously posted on her Instagram account that she was beginning to feel nervous about the marathon.
While the beauty queen reassured her fans that she has been training daily and wanted to “finish strong,” she also asked any marathon runners who were following her to give any advice they may have.
In a post on her Instagram account last October 9, Pia Wurtzbach shared another update on her training for the New York City marathon. Pia and her fiancé Jeremy Jauncey are known for leading active lifestyles that include working out even while they are traveling.

In her IG post, Pia Wurtzbach opened up about all the difficulties she had while working out over the previous few months. She said, “TRAINING UPDATE! Finished running 32km last weekend — my longest run so far, and now we’re on the final stretch of training!”
“I faced a lot of setbacks the past few months…di ko lang shinare kasi kinabahan ako I was worried I couldn’t do the marathon anymore cos I got sick twice and previously got Covid. I missed training days and some of those essential long runs so I was really worried. My performance suffered. I couldn’t get the mileage in, and I was slower than before. Mabagal na nga ako bumagal pa lalo. And nobody ever mentioned na mentally maaffect ka rin pala sa ganon. When you miss those long runs or you fail at reaching goals during training, you get so disappointed in yourself to the point of wanting to give up. Durog ang confidence mo, wala ka nang gana.
“But but but…with the right guidance, support and A LOT of determination, I’M BACK. 32km done and my coach @gabbrosario is confident I can finish the 42km.
“So now the goal is to just finish the marathon. No matter how slow or fast it’ll take me. I realized that this isn’t a pageant. I’m not competing against anyone but myself.
“Ang daming life lessons noh? Til the next update”
Pia Wurtzbach’s IG post received messages of support from her celebrity friends like Yam Concepcion, Anne Curtis, Charlene Gonzalez, and soon-to-be-husband Jeremy Jauncey who wrote, “Get it baby :).”
