👉🏾 I’m BACKKKKKK! 🏃🏾‍♀️✨ You guys, I’m so excited to finally go on a run today! It actually felt much better than I thought it would. 🎉 It was really easy when I wasn’t feeling well to get down on myself, and think “I lost all my fitness.” 😩 Thank goodness I talked to my coach @robertcorre and we planned out the next 6 months. It was really assuring that I did NOT lose my fitness and I’m heading in the right direction. 🙌🏾 Talking about things out loud with him really made me realize that I was becoming more and more less confident in myself. Self-doubt can be so toxic, especially when you set really high expectations for yourself. Not just in running, but in our careers and families. At the end of the day, we’re all doing the best we can to balance it all. I’m going to try really hard to work on this, especially because I know it’s holding me back from my full potential. 💕 ••• “You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light.” - Samuel 22:29

Happy 28th Birthday, Babe! 🎂🎉 Remember seven years ago when you blocked me on Facebook so I wouldn’t see your age. I'm so glad you eventually unblocked me, and for not letting the younger age thing stop me from marrying you. 😂 There’s no one else I want to do life with. Cheers to many more adventures together! ♥️

HEY GUYS! 👋🏾 Sorry I’ve been hella MIA, but what I thought was food poisoning at the start of the week ended up lasting all week long. 🤦🏾‍♀️ It’s been a ROUGH week to say the least. My diet has consisted of broth, crackers, and Gatorade. Yup, that’s literally all I could stomach! 🤭 After a visit to the doctor yesterday, it looks like I didn’t just bring memories and sand back from Mexico! 😳 I brought back a nasty stomach bug, and am treating it with medicine. Hopefully, I’ll be on the mend and back to my old self in no time.🤞🏾Until then, tell me about all the delicious foods you’ve eaten this week?! 🍕🌮🍦 Because I MISS FOOD! 💔 • • • (PIC:from when I use to run — hella dramatic 🤣)

Damn y’all, food poisoning is no joke! 😫 I’ve had it before, but this time around it’s been non-stop 🚽💩😳...yeah sorry TMI! 😂 But, gotta keep it real real. BECAUSE I MISS FOOD 😭 So, I haven’t worked out or ran in about 5 days and I’m starting to miss it! 🤷🏾‍♀️ Hopefully my stomach will be back to normal tomorrow, and I’ll get back into the groove. 🏃🏾‍♀️ Until then, y’all pray for me, cuz we’re running out of toilet paper over here 😂😂😂 • • • (Pic is a throwback to this time last week, when all I had to worry about was what drink I wanted to order next!🍹☀️)

PRACTICE WHAT YA PREACH 💯👏🏾 — We got home late last night after traveling back to Sacramento and picking up our Sheppy boy. 🐕 That 4:30am alarm was no joke! Back to reality!...Talk about #StruggleBus 😫 I got to the @urbancowhalf marathon, ate my normal pre-race meal, was decked out in all my racing gear and headed to the start line, per-usual. I legit started walking AND turned my 🍑 around! 😳 I wasn’t feeling it,🙅🏾‍♀️ and honestly, I didn’t care. To me, the worse thing I can do to myself is start a race with my head NOT in it. My head, my body, and most importantly my heart wasn’t in it. 💔 I knew that, so I decided today would be the day I cheered on friends and chatted with the running community. I 100% knew I made the right decision when I saw people running into the finish line, and I only felt genuine excitement for them. 🎉 I could sit here and write posts all day everyday about “listening to your body” and “take it easy” but, it’s also just as important to practice what ya preach! 💯 I’ve come a long way from the days of racing almost every other weekend, and caring so much about PRs and times. Of course, I’m still going to train, and eventually I’ll get back into race mode, but right now I’m perfectly content. My priorities have changed so much, and I love where my journey has taken me. ♥️🏃🏾‍♀️ C O N G R A T S to everyone who raced today! 🙌🏾 • • • Pic from 2017 Urban Cow 🐮

Hasta la vista, Cabo!✌🏾It’s been real.🇲🇽 ~ So, I’m signed up for our local @urbancowhalf marathon tomorrow. 😳 Yeah...about that. I’m still in vacay mode, so Imma just show up and see how it goes. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Since I’m currently fueled by strawberry🍓mojitos and piña colada’s,🍹— my only goal is to have FUN! 💃🏾 Best of luck to everyone RACING tomorrow!!!🏃🏾‍♀️✨ #DestinoLosCabos #LivingMyBestLife #VisitMexico
