Utah Valley 1/2 Marathon Recap!

SO happy to see Andrew and the kids and to be a few steps away from the end! (Top, bra, shorts, shoes, glasses, jacket) On Saturday, I could tell in the first mile that I was feeling off.  I kept telling myself that each race is a roller coaster of feelings and that things would … Continue Reading

(Shoes, bra, tank, shorts, arm sleeves and gloves that I used for the first 6 miles) I just HAVE to start this post by saying that this course included 3,000 ft of DOWN.  There were some flats and a few of the tiniest ups.

Welcome to my 5,000th picture on my blog where you see … Continue Reading

10K Recap + Be STUBBORN!

It feels so weird to be writing a race recap again, but I’m hoping that this happens a lot more often now:).  I felt so much gratitude on Saturday to be doing what I love so much and to be surrounded by the running community again.  I think this is a big part of why … Continue Reading

CIM Recap!

Please note this was written on our late flight back last night and there are probably more grammatical errors than normal;) Okay, let’s get started.  I want to be as real as possible because I’m sure this is something a lot of us go through.  I felt a million different things yesterday!  I was sad … Continue Reading
