Andi Dorfman Opens Up About Running the L.A. Marathon with Her Boyfriend Blaine Hart
In it for the long run!
Bachelor Nation fans first met Andi Dorfman on Season 18 of “The Bachelor” and she went on to be the Bachelorette for Season 10.
While Andi and Josh Murray got engaged on the show in 2014, the two split the following year.
Since then, Andi has been more private about her dating life until recently. In late 2021, Andi introduced her boyfriend Blaine Hart to her over a million followers on social media.
Andi has shared sweet photos and videos of Blaine spending time with her family and the two even decided to train for the Los Angeles Marathon together.
Andi and Blaine completed the marathon this past weekend and Andi took to Instagram to answer some fan questions about what the experience was like.

One fan asked if Blaine was a runner before they started dating and Andi wrote, “No, but he’s definitely a fit guy!”
She went on to explain, “I asked if he wanted to do the marathon and he said, ‘Hell yeah!’ And he crushed it. Honestly, I was the one holding us back with my injury.”
Andi shared, “I’m so proud of him, and I will say it was really fun for us to train together. It gave us a lot of quality time with each other along the way! And we still love each other after 26.2 miles, so that’s a testament!”
So sweet!
Another fan asked Andi if the pain she’s in now is worth the accomplishment of running the marathon and the former Bachelorette wrote “1,000,000%! Pain is temporary, this medal is forever! Honestly, the pain is actually kind of comical now.”
Blaine shared that his post-marathon pain is “everywhere below this waist” and Andi laughed saying she is “hurting from head to toe.”
Andi also shared some tips for other runners like her favorite socks to avoid blisters and her favorite running belt to hold her water bottles, phone, and snacks.

She later took to Instagram and wrote "26.2 miles from start to finish and every grueling face in between lol! It was quite the battle but what a… dare I say… fun… experience. Made so much sweeter by having my sidekick for life there from start to finish! So insanely proud of him and his commitment. Thank you LA for an epic Sunday! #lamarathon2022 officially in the books!!!! Legs go!"
Congrats to these two on running the marathon together! We love seeing Andi so happy!
