Hi Juliana,

How are you?

I hope this message finds you well.

I would like to inform you that I just completed a marathon and it was wonderful.

I had been preparing to this marathon for weeks and was great, I woke up everyday at 5:00 am to do the training at the park next to my house.

The atmosphere was really good on the day of the event. There were a lot of people. Also, when I was going the marathon, I saw many people across the road watching the marathon.

When you got time, call me and I will give more details.

Thank you

Have a good day
