Life’s been everything
that I said I would make it 💭
Over 600+ miles from San Francisco 🌁Las Vegas🎰
on foot 🏃🏽♂️with a team filled with some of the strongest runners Northern California has to offer🔝 It was truly amazing ,words can’t describe how I feel but I feel reborn
Life’s never been about understanding,it always been about feeling 🫂Through this journey I learned many things about myself & others , I felt all of this happen & in the short amount of the time we’ve spent , I feel closer to my purpose more now than ever, so I guess I will just leave you with this for now -
“You’re gonna get to the end of that road one day & look back on “ everything you wish you would have done “ are you working towards those goals now ? Or are you still holding your dreams off for forever.”🔝🔜📈

Now for something serious—
I have enjoyed some incredible highs this week. This ceremony, meeting all my amazing classmates, and receiving so many well-wishes from friends and family.
I also feel so very grateful for my pops who raised me and my brothers through thick and thin, all on his own. I’ve been able to reach higher than I ever thought I would by standing on his shoulders.
I’ve also felt some lingering lows. After every big life event—graduations, white coating, etc—I’m hit with a deep longing for my mom to see me achieve them. It’s been 17 years and the ache still stubbornly resurfaces. But I also know that without her loss, I would not have learned the lessons I needed to become the person I am today.
So here’s to legacy, mom and dad ❤️
And here’s to me being proud of myself and the entire journey ☺️
Finally did it!
4 months ago, my goal was 3:30. Then came some plantar fasciitis and 3-4 weeks of rest. At that point, all I wanted was to finish. I’m proud I finished so close to my original goal 🙂↕️
Thank you to the friends who’ve pushed me to really go for it ❤️
What a way to start my next chapter 🤙🏽
Want to run a few miles with us?
Half way to Las Vegas from San Francisco and I wouldn't want to run/crew 600 miles with any other group.
@milesoverbarriers , it is a privilege to crew you.
See you in LV!!

A huge thank you to all these beautiful people ❤️ y’all inspire me to be confident in my own path in life and to strive for greatness :)
And thanks to FPHLP and U of M for hosting our reunion
(Felt like we all knew each other for years after just one week 🥹)
Side note: didn’t know only 20 ppl could be tagged so special mention to @_monicaortiz_@___micaela____@awkaraceli@life_of_augustina@anisah@hxnxhoo (dm me if I missed you, I have an IG tolerance of like 10 min and the memory of a goldfish 💪🏾)
