Snapshots of my Running Life

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

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

My first bib from NQ 2012

Running through the Magic Kingdom – 2014 Princess Half Marathon

Huge smile. Huge finish. 2014 Wine and Dine.

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

On my way to a PR at the 2014 Corporate Run

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

The Finish Line. 2014 Wine and Dine.

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.

My shins and calves were saved by CEP compression sleeves.

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

Made this banner to inspire me.

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

2014 Wine and Dine.

A magical finish! 2014 Wine and Dine.

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!

I am no means a flexible person, but practicing yoga has helped my ITBS and my body greatly.

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

What a finish. 2014 Wine and Dine.

Crossing the Line at my first Gate River Run

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

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!
