13.1 ✅🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️💙 Our original race was cancelled but no better way to make it more ‘official’ than running for a cause!

April is Autism Awareness Month so this was the perfect choice - “Autism affects 1 in 68 children and is the fastest-growing developmental disorder in the United States. There is no cure, but with continued research, there is hope to solve the puzzle, piece by piece.” - autismspeaks virtualstrides

Big shout out to the BTS | RUN club btsfit and pennypacker83 for his awesome coaching! What a great 5ish months of training! Can’t wait until our next race. 😊

“In a world where you can be anything, be kind” 💙💙💙

I don’t always like what I see. But then I remember that I’m literally a creator of life, 3 in fact, and I tell myself to Boss up because my body is pretty impressive. And truth be told, my body is stronger than it was before. I’m a muthafuckin Warrior. #240milesriddenin6weeks #pelotonbikeplus #virtualstrides #warriorwomen #womensmemorial

We ran for giveanhour during our half marathon. They provide free and confidential mental health services to veterans, families, and moving towards the general population.

This was important for me to run for because, on a personal note, running has provided a healthy outlet in managing my anxiety. Something I have really began dissecting to better understand over this last year. And making the time to run or workout so I can be more present for my husband and children has been a game changer in the overall flow of our family system.

If there is a summary of what I’ve learned it’s that you deserve to take care of yourself. 🙌🏼

Today I ran in honor of my best friend, with my best friend 💛 my virtual half marathon of choice for February was for a charitable foundation against domestic violence. I talked to Kate during my run, asked her to help me get my ass up Bull Mountain, and even played Return of the Mack on my last mile 💕

This is my biggest elevation run to date. Ever. I couldn’t have done it without Rich pushing me the whole way. He of course powered Bull Mtn Rd but even turned back to cheer me on 😭 another half marathon down!

🏅First 10K Race (virtual) of the year!! AND broke 100 Miles for January 😍 If there’s one thing I strongly remembered today, it’s that you can plan a run, but you def can’t predict the weather! 😂

I chose to run the Coronavirus Relief 10K by virtualstrides along the Columbia River that divides Oregon and Washington. But MAN! I forgot how WINDY it gets with the winter winds coming off the mountains from the East this time of year 🥶💨
•
I struuuuuggled and I while it wasn’t my best, I also didn’t care. I was just so happy to run a Winter 10K Race - something I NEVER would have tempted before. I still ran faster than my very first 10K back in July 2019, so I’m still freakin happy considering the weather conditions! 😄
•
Steady wind gusts of 17 mph straight to the face for more than half the run 😅 and spotty rain drizzle (luckily) at the beginning. I also had had trouble sleeping last night, so I consumed every possible #nuunhydration energy powder I could to get this done! 🤣
•
My family showed up TO MY SURPRISE at the end and my heart melted ❤️ I cracked up laughing while gasping for air (literally) as I ran through their wrapping paper finish line 🤣 I’m so proud to do strong things for myself, and to be an example for my little munchkins.

Now time to check in on my fellow girls across 2 other time zones who also ran this race with me!! I’m proud of you guys and I’m ready to CELEBRATE “virtual style” with cross-country mimosas!!!! 🥂 🍾 🥳

A wet and drizzly 4.50 miles today on one of my local trails. Considering the hills and the muddy course from yesterday’s downpour, I’m pretty flippin’ happy with my pace 🤩 Didn’t want to push it too far, because I’m excited to run my first 10K race of 2021 this Saturday!

Ending the year with another 5K! 🥳

About a mile in I knew I wasn’t going to beat my time. My hips were hurting and my legs felt like they were 100 pounds each.

I walked about 1/3 of the time but I finished and that’s what matters!

I thought this medal was cute too 😂

The mutha fuckin’ International Space Station (ISS) ~1st video~ I have never been so happy in my entire life (well maybe once or twice) the cars that passed by probably thought I was on drugs or crazy...I was literally jumping up and down and clapping like a dork, with the biggest smile on my face 🤷🏻‍♀️
The second video is longer because I was more prepared and composed lol...But I was still just as excited as the first time...Thankfully no one was at the park to see me being a crazy person!

Monday night I ran a virtual 5K for suicide awareness! I placed 20/150 and shaved a whole 2 minutes off my time from last month with a new record time of 31:41! 🎉

Just a few years ago I couldn’t run more than a minute, and here I am now running 5ks for fun 🙌

You don’t have to be extreme, just consistent 💪

I just got this super cool medal in the mail from the virtual 2020 dumpster fire 5K I ran a few weeks back! PR of 33:47!!!

Next 5K is in November for suicide awareness! Something near to my heart after losing my brother in law to suicide last year 💔 Going to run my heart out and set a new PR! I hope to get it under 30 min! We will see 🏃🏽‍♀️

In the past I have posted my runs as maybe a subtle brag, but lately I have had multiple people reach out and ask me how to start running or how I have the motivation. Truth is, I can't tell ya, but the best piece of advice I can give is just start running. The first 50 steps are the hardest. Day 1 you might not make it far. Day 2 you might go even less of the previous day's distance. All I can say is just get out and do it every day and you will start to see results.

Running is 95% mental and I mean that whole heartedly. Your body CAN do it, but half the time your mind doesn't want to.

This morning I woke up at 3:20 AM and ran an official virtual half marathon with my good friend and one of my biggest motivators, bryangoman

The second picture is a text I sent to my brother on April 8th, 2.2 miles and I was much more excited than the text indicates. 4 months later and I logged a half marathon. Trust me, if I can do it, so can you. You just have to get out and go.

I purposely chose today to run this virtual 5K because I haven't run regularly in a long time. I wanted the run to be hard. I wanted to use it to have internal conversations about my own privilege and how I can actively fight racism in different facets of my life or ways I haven't considered before. But most of all because today is a great day to arrest the officers who murdered Breonna Taylor! #justiceforbreonnataylor #BlackLivesMatter #CheckYourPrivilege #virtual5k #VirtualStrides #arrestthecopswhokilledbreonnataylor

Happy birthday to me! 🎉

Tim has signed me up for my first postpartum 10K today, which isn’t happening for obvious reasons. So I bought myself a cool medal from virtualstrides and did it myself. (And then ended up with the medal from the cancelled race and I don’t hang medals I don’t earn, so this is actually my second postpartum 10K 😆) It actually felt like a real race. We got up early. I got dressed in my cheesy matching outfit and so did Emily. Tim and the kids came to cheer me on at the halfway point. And I beat my last 10K time by 2:47! Even better than that, I felt great doing it and I feel great now that it’s over. Personally, I think carb-loading with cupcakes and beer last night helped. I’ll definitely have to try that again. You know, as an experiment. 🧁🍻 It has been a hard year, but, honestly, I’ve had harder. I have a lot to celebrate today. 36, here I come! 💪❤️💙🏅
