Speed run this morning included a running friend and moving tree limbs off the road after last night's heavy storms. This baby girl was so sweet and loving, but we already have three large dogs and a cat, as well as two children.

Wrapped up week 4 with @infinityfitnessnm_coaching Todays run was a mix of paved and packed dirt.

Touche momma Nat, touche!!! I def asked for her to hold off on the rain, but holy hell, she forgot to take the humidity with her!! ๐ฅต๐ฅต I was pushing myself hard today, and managed to stay UNDER 16 min average for my almost 13 miles!!! ๐ช๐ช I was trying to get a PR on my half marathon, but I ran out of water and then thought I should run around the parking lot in the direct sun... Not my brightest moment but I quit when I realized what I was doing! One more weekend between me and @highballtothurmond def gonna give this race all I got, but def didn't get to the distance I was hoping for. At this point, I'm going to do what I do best, have fun and try my best! ๐โโ๏ธ๐ณ #ultratraining #plussizerunner #runningforme #hb2t #runnergirl #newbalance #saltstick #megababe #run #milesofmayhem

A very rainy start to this long run paid off with a beautiful rainbow. I just wish I had put Scotch guard or something on my new shoes first. Oh well!

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are๐๐ผโโ๏ธ โข Hello May. Iโm ready to set some goals and get back to being a better and healthier me. I miss running. I miss lifting.

Saying goodbye to April with the Outrun April 5k and a back & biceps workout! I kept my run easy with just a few strides to keep it interesting. My lift was a tough one and this week Iโm working on going up in weights so by the end, my muscles were too tired to even flex all the way lol. This month has been a weird one; I feel like so much had happened and not much has gone to plan. But I suppose thatโs life sometimes! Iโm still trying to figure out where I fit in right now while Iโm not training for anything and donโt have a big plan to follow. Thatโs why Iโm not as active on here. If you feel the same way, let me know and we can support each other!! ๐ซถ๐ผ For now Iโm choosing to show up for myself. Iโm lifting 3-4 days a week, running as often as I can- which sometimes means just a mile or 2 and thatโs ok! Iโm working on my nutrition and trying to do better with my protein and fueling. *shoutout to @katesrealfood for creating the most delicious protein bars so itโs easier for me to get my protein in after my workouts! #motherrunner #runningcommunity #runhappy #runningjourney #fitnessjourney #momswholift #momswhorun #liift4 #backandbiceps #treadmill5k #runningforme #runnerslife #momlife #positivevibes

Yesterday's recovery run turned into an impromptu sub 40 5k PR ๐ My biggest goal when starting this running journey, I wanted to 1) run a 5k without walking and 2) run a 5k in under 45 minutes. Goals achieved! However, I will say running the county roads at my parents' house can be quite boring.

Couch to 5k. Week 8. Run 3. - 5 minute brisk warm up walk - 28 minute run - 5 minute brisk cool down walk That was a tough one. I feel massive atm! A mixture of shitty eating habits & my period. I HAVE to do something about my nutrition, otherwise this is all going to be for nothing. Anyway, on a positive note thatโs Week 8 completed! My last week of #couchto5k next week & even though Iโm still not reaching the full distance (although I am completing each run time) I feel like Iโve come a really long way. And because Iโve done the entire course, itโs unlocked further runs to helps me with pace & stamina, so my goal is still to reach that 5k mark, whatever time it takes me & work on pace & stamina from there!

Another Saturday, another 3 mile run. I managed to shave 2 minutes off my overall speed, so I am quite happy with that.

The last two weeks have felt like a whirlwind. Visiting family. Loving on those who need it most. Enjoying my shifts at work. Volunteering at school. I've tried to make time for myself. In fact, we drove 8 hours home last Sunday, and I managed to run 2.5 miles to help my body unwind and stretch from sitting for so long. This account still isn't what I want, what I envisioned for myself. I'm still looking to keep myself accountable, to help vent and express myself.

Saturday morning run... I managed to run 3.28miles, not my best distance, but still trying to build up strength in knee. Which clearly hasn't worked as it still painful now. However I did managed to run my fastest mile in 9.07 so I'm definitely pleased with that.

Double figures for 1st time since I fell down the stairs and hurt my back. Kept it very comfortable but gives me a benchmark of where I am currently at and where I need to get to.

I'm feeling a little frustrated lately. Every run this week felt difficult. It's probably since the football injury. Today's run was horrible. I've been in this phase before, and I know it's all a part of the grind. It is frustrating, though! But we keep going and trust in discipline, and at least I got another 6km. #running #runningjourney #runningfitnessjourney #runningman #amatuerrunner #stravacommunity #strava100kmchallenge #runningforme

(11.4.24) 6K ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ 42 minutes โฐ Such a nice sunset run this evening and a small aim to try and balance out the 7 hour screen time scrolling from today! ๐ณ Iโm really enjoying these local runs at the moment and seem to be on a little streak of daily runs in a row.. โบ๏ธ Slight ankle pain again today, which I stopped to stretch out half way.. but fingers crossed it seems ok for now! ๐โโ๏ธ Forever grateful and happy that my body allows me to run and that my mind enjoys it so much ๐ #running #runninggirl #runningoutdoors #runningwoman #runninglife #runningforme #runninghealth #runninginsta

Commitment. I love to commit to projects. I love to pour my heart and soul into things. To use my gifts and talents to benefit others. But I find it so hard to commit to me. I have a plan and a goal, but if it only benefits me, I give up almost immediately. Other more important things fill my space, and push down my goal. It is all self-inflicted. I allow this to happen, because caring for myself is hard. I had a goal to start this page and begin a run streak. I really wanted those two things to go together. To allow this page to motivate me to run, while I allow running to give me the words for these posts. But I already want to give up. I ran that first day for my first post. Great start. But I worked the next three days. And I gave up. After one day. But I'm back. Maybe this will be the day I learn to put myself first, just for this portion of my life. 6 days in and 3 runs in the book. Maybe I'm not doing as bad as I thought. One foot in front of the other should be the first goal, just keep moving. #running #runningforhealth #runningforme #traumahealing #healthhealing #love2run #run2love #onefootinfrontoftheother #run4loverun4life #runstreak
After taking 3 days of rest, I finally had the mental capacity and energy to get back out on the placement following my 13 mile long run. And I ran a sub 40 minute 5k, another PR. Was that the plan? Absolutely not. My hope was to just get out there and run for 30 minutes and see how it felt. My knee was feeling pretty rough in the beginning, but it worked out and I was feeling REALLY good after about 15 minutes and I was maintaining a 13 minute pace. When 30 minutes came, I realized a 5k PR was within reach, so I went for it. It's been a long time since a run felt this good. Now for strength and mobility this afternoon and continue on with this training ๐ค . . . #beginnerrunner #runningformentalhealth #runningjourney #runningforme #runningmotivation #runningmom #momswhorun #momswhorunandlift #recoveryrun #morning #morningrun #slowrunner #slowrunning #slowafrunclub #nikerunclubapp #nikerunclub #10ktraining #halfmarathontraining #plussizerunner #biggirlswhorun
(10.4.24) 10K!! ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ1 hour 14 minutes Happy with this today ๐ Went out this morning with a no timeframe mindset, and instead wanted to focus on distance. I set my watch to a distance run and did a familiar route. Feel like it was a really great run and I enjoyed it which for me is the most important thing! ๐คฉ I did stop a few times, this included having some weird ankle pain which needed stretching out a few times ๐ซ and a call my @lewish30x and @stacey_brova ๐ as well as a hill that I just couldnโt face ๐ตโ๐ซ and some puddles on a narrow path ๐ซ #running #runninggirl #runningoutdoors #runningwoman #runninglife #runningforme #runninghealth #runninginsta

No surprise here.. I have been struggling to get to the gym too... Why? Well, just life.. But I decided to show up this evening.. (didn't look at the calendar) and well the class was a double whammy... Infinity on the rower and then floor dri-tri prep work, and then 14 mins endurance on the tread... If you don't speak @otfgreensboro I'll break it down... Infinity on the rower: 14 mins of rowing 100 meters at a time and in-between each 100 meters, some medicine ball jumping jacks.. ๐ฃโโ๏ธ Floor Dri-tri prep work: 14 mins trying to complete 300 body weight only exercises.. including but not limited to squats, step ups, burpees, pushups, and much more.. ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ช 14 min endurance on the tread: just that, 14 mins on the treadmill... Pushing one self.. ๐โโ๏ธ๐ญ As we are cooling down coach @kathyalbright is talking about everyone who got a PR on the infinity.. and much to my surprise.. my name was called... Not only did I PR but by almost 200 freaking meters!!!! ๐ฑ๐คฏ So moral of the story, even though I've been struggling with my routine, I am STRONG!!! ๐ช #plussizerunner #training #otfgreensboro #ultratraining #runningforme #running #PRnation #strongaf #infinity #workout #runner #saltstick #newbalance #run #train #otf
These sunny days can definitely be harsh but I love a blue New Mexico sky. I decided it was time to get a running coach. No more of this online junk. I wanted someone who can work with me and make a plan that will work for me. @infinityfitnessnm_coaching started me on a plan for my July marathon. She also focuses on strength, recovery and proper fueling. I am loving the communication and commitment. I highly suggest reaching out if you have a goal race. #womenempoweringwomen #wemovenm #nmtrue #womenwhorun #ladieswhorun #burquerunners #nmrunner #didyouruntoday #runnerscommunity #runningforme #runalbuquerque #runabq #afterrunglo #strongwomen #runallfast #runallthemiles #runalltheraces #thisiswhatstronglookslike #runningallkinds #runallfar #irunthisbody #runningmotivation #thisbodyruns #abqrunner #505runner #runhappy #run #runner #mybody
