Running makes me a better person, wife, and mommy!

Snapshots of my Running Life

Crossing the Line at the 2014 Disney Princess Half Marathon

2016 Star Wars Half – The Darkside. My husband’s first 13.1!

Met up with my sister before the race – 2014 Princess Half Marathon

2017 WDW Marathon – At ESPN just after I sprained my right ankle. I don’t look injured, right? That was the plan.

Crossing the Line at my first Gate River Run

2016 Star Wars Kids Races – The Darkside. My little man came missed the start, but ran hard and got second!

My shins and calves were saved by CEP compression sleeves.

For my long runs, I wear my Asics Nimbus 14. You need that support and cushion. These shoes are about to be retired. They have about 120+ road miles.

I saw this shirt at Animal Kingdom and thought it was perfect.

My babies, March 2013

2014 Corp Run. My form doesn’t look too bad!

My first bib from NQ 2012

Working at the 2012 26.2 with Donna Marathon. Surrounded by inspirational people.

I got too many treats at the 2014 Wine and Dine finish line.

Waiting and freezing in the corral. 2014 Wine and Dine.

2017 WDW Marathon – Finished with a sprained right ankle. I was on pace to finish a 3:50 race, but got injured after mile-19. I feel good about this race because I EARNED it. I finished two minutes faster than my first marathon though!

Never Quit 2013 was my second race after having my third baby. Ran the Donna 5K the day before.

My sister and I – 2014 Princess Half Marathon

Right after I was cleared to run after my third baby, I registered for NQ. Great race and awesome energy. “Never quit” is my mantra.

Tested and did not like.

In the Potty Line with my sister, Charry – 2014 PHM

Running through the Magic Kingdom – 2014 Princess Half Marathon

I started out a little too hard and my calves and shins paid the price. Lesson: listen to the experienced ones!

What a finish. 2014 Wine and Dine.

A PR at the 2014 Corporate Run

Made this banner to inspire me.

2014 Corporate Run. Next time, I’m asking for a performance shirt. It was WAY too hot for cotton.

Let’s get out there!

I am so proud of this top-5% overall finish at the 2014 Wine and Dine

These pants are comfy, practical, and just plain awesome after a run (and for yoga)!

The Finish Line. 2014 Wine and Dine.

Yours truly.

Huge smile. Huge finish. 2014 Wine and Dine.

New Balance’s Minimus Fours are great for those short easy runs and a day at Disney.

My first race at TPC Sawgrass.

After running the Donna 5K at The Players, my friend (and an inspiration) Leah and I picked up our packets for the Never Quit 5K for the next day. Hard core!
