The left, I was 3 months postpartum still carrying around 15-20 extra pounds. The words, “you’ll bounce back” replied over and over. For the first 4-6 months postpartum, I felt like I was busting my ass for months and not seeing the progress I wanted or others expected of me (sad, right?) In order to move forward, I needed to forget. The comparison games needed to stop. Forget where you used to be & how it used to feel. Life is all about the present journey you are in: stop living your life in the past. Stop playing your highlights from 1, 5, 10, 20, 30 years ago and thinking back on how “great things were”. The time to make a change is now. The time to be the best version of yourself is today. It’s never too late to dream a new dream. As soon as I let go of who I “used to be”, I was able to transform into the person I am becoming. A strong runner, mom, coach, and business owner. ❤️Believe in yourself ❤️

8 months ago, I couldn’t run 1 mile without stopping. It really wasn’t until I let go of expectations and comparisons that I was able to improve. Today was a surprising! Hitting my fastest splits in a track workout ever 💪🏼 Start where you are. One day at a time. When they say “trust the process” what they really mean is stop judging yourself and questioning your abilities 😂💪🏼 20 min warm up 8:20 pace 8 x 200 meters @ 44, 42, 42, 42, 42, 41, 41, 41, 41 (5:36 average pace) 4x 400 meters @ 1:24, 1:23, 1:23, 1:21 (5:32 average pace) Equal recovery Cool down to 8.6 miles

Running isn’t easy for anyone. The struggle is what makes you stronger. In those challenging times, you are able to find your true strength. You are able to test your mental & physical limits. You learn you are capable of more than you ever thought possible. Instead of quitting, you give your best. You push past your comfort zone. You not only become a better runner, but you become a better person in the process. Threshold session today: 2.5 warm up @ 8:15 pace 3 miles @ 6:45ish? 3 min easy 1 mile @ 6:30ish Easy cool down to 9

Drowning in the humidity these past few mornings 😂🔥👌🏼 thankful for crop tops! Am I right?! I’m on a cutback week so no long run tomorrow in this weather 🙌🏻🏃‍♀️ anyone else ever feel worse during cut back/recovery/taper weeks? Lol 😆 they are good for you but they are so tough!

The track is OPEN 🙌🏻🙌🏻 it was under construction for 2 months this summer and I was SO pumped to get back on it!!! I missed flying 🏃‍♀️🔥 anyone else LOVE the track? Today’s workout: 4x 400 @ 1:24, 1:25, 1:26, 1:26 (5:40-ish avg) with 400 jog 2x 800 @ 2:58, 2:59 (5:57 pace) with 400 jog 4x 200 @ 37, 40, 40, 39 (5:20-ish pace) with 200 jog STICK A FORK IN ME!!! 💀😆
