Not sure how many miles I ran in March🤷🏼‍♀️ On some easy runs I don’t wear my watch - they’re easy pace and I know how far I’m going because I run these streets all the time! Remember the miles still count towards your fitness whether you’re wearing a device or not😊🏃🏼‍♀️ Hope you’re all having a great week! Tomorrow we start meeting with our students virtually and I’m really excited to see them!👩🏼‍💻🍎🧸🖍 🌈💕

Determined to come out of the coronavirus quarantine stronger💪🏼🔥 I’ve been doing @madeline_moves weekly moves workouts 3-4x a week from my apartment for the past 2+ months. The BEST strength training program I’ve ever done. Upped some weights today and am feeling stronger💪🏼

15 MILES!🎉🏃🏼‍♀️and the furthest I’ve run since late October I think?? Had such a great run today and the best part - I met one of my followers!💕She was walking her dog and I noticed after I passed her (6 feet away) she was right behind me again running with her dog so I turned and noticed she was saying something to me. So I stopped and she mentioned she follows me and that someone very close to her suffers from BED and how it’s been so helpful to follow me and my journey. We chatted for about 15 minutes and it was so nice getting to meet her. That’s the best part about having this account - meeting people and being able to have a positive impact on their lives and vice versa!💕 Also turns out we live only 1 mile away from each other and I run by her house all the time🤣 too funny! Hope you all were able to get outside for a little today!

8 mile run✅ Upper Body + Shoulder Burnout✅ Apartment deep clean✅ Ready for a drink!😜🍷

Yesterday I asked if there was anything I could do to help/support you all as we navigate through this weird time together, and the most common reply was to continue posting positive things that I’m doing! Well, today started out not so positive. I woke up as a negative Nancy and was in a mood all day (ask Kyle how nice I was being👿). Like still looking very disheveled at noon and barely accomplishing anything. The worst feeling. I talked myself out of running at least 20 times and I’m not exaggerating on that number. Finally, after Kyle said I should just get out there for my mental health, I took a big deep breath and laced up. It was a good run, full of sunshine and hills👌🏼 Followed up with chest and back strength training. And then I FaceTimed my cousin and parents for a virtual happy hour🍷Hope you all found many reasons to smile today😊 #StrongestSelf

Times like this is showing me, and probably many of you, that yet again, there is a lot more to running than a PR on race day. With no races on the horizon, many of us are running for our mentality, sanity, and to just break out of our homes everyday. 💗It’s okay if you don’t hit a pace during a workout. 💗It’s okay if do a run/walk interval. 💗It’s okay if you shed a tear or two on your run (I’ve done it🙋🏼‍♀️) 💗And it’s okay if your biggest accomplishment during a run was simply just showing up and getting out the door. Now is the time to give yourself and your body grace. Run for what it does for you mentally, emotionally, and physically. Run for how you feel when you’re done. Run to be a better you, whatever that type of run looks like. It may not be a speedy track workout - and that’s OKAY! As long as you’re running to be a better and stronger you, that’s all that matters😊💗 #StrongestSelf
