Donāt take for granted the constants in your life š¤
I looked back on all these videos and I couldnāt help but smile at Justinās voice in every single one. Sometimes you donāt even realize how much one voice matters and how much the voice carries you.
Say thanks for the people around you if you havenāt recently xoxo

The crazy thing about this sport is no matter how painful it is and absurd it can get, the addiction is wild.
I will say these weekends pause everything for me. I donāt think about anything out there other than who I am and who I want to be. Iām not thinking about work or where I need to be, I donāt think about responsibilities I have, I just focus on the work Iām doing for me and I think thatās pretty awesome. Devoting time to better ourselves in a world of constant distraction is really freaking hard, and not on a professional level, but a personal one. Everyoneās got their thing š¤·āāļø
My experience in a nutshell. Yes the PRs are fun and nice, but the conversations with strangers and real raw feelings between them is what changes you. This is what itās about. You go through hell and back with these people. I wish I couldāve counted the amount of times people pass by and check on you or cheer you on.
I just love this community š¤
Anddd last one for now but most important one.
The biggest thank you to my rock, my partner, my team, and my coach @justinrubinn š¤ I would not be here if it werenāt for you and I truly mean that. Heās been along side me every step on my running journey and through it always, heās been the loudest voice. Thank you for believing in me always. Our life is nonstop craziness, but these moments make life stand still and I cherish every second of it together.
Thank you for being there every second this weekend, no sleep, setting up our dope ass camp site, taking care of everything else for me to keep going. I love you and am always grateful. One step at a time.
@bpnsupps last man raceā¦113 miles complete ā
This race was by far one of the hardest races Iāve done⦠The option to ring the bell is always there every single hour. At the same time, the option to toe the line once more is on the other side of that. You can see a goal distance, yet the end is unknown and infinite to what youāre physically and mentally capable of. The unknown is a scary place. You constantly fight in your head, āhow far can I go?ā
As I sit a day later and think about this race, I am so proud to say I hit a distance PR of 113 and hit a PR for my 100 mile. However, I sit here contemplating did I give this race my absolute all? The answer honestly is no. Iām not saying I could still be out there, Iām not saying I could have done another 2 laps, or push past the rain that came - but in that moment I let my mental sink and cave and take me out. Looking back now I could have pushed past whatever hurdle was in front of me. However, thatās why I do these races - to practice exactly that. Ride the highs, push past the lows, over and over again. It is the hardest thing to keep telling yourself you have more when your body aches and hurts, but I know and we should all know - we have so much more than what we think we are capable of. I had people tell me I had more, and in the moment I didnāt think that, but hearing and sitting on that just sunk in a little deep. But with that, itās a lesson Iāll take back with me and thatās the lesson Iām taking from this race. This is a stepping stone in the journey I chose to take.
I did gain so much from this race and above that so many new friends to cheer on as we enjoy doing these crazy things together and the constant inspiration. Each of these ultras are such a huge lesson for me. I take so much away and this was nothing different. A couple years ago, 100 seemed absolutely impossible let alone anything above that. Iām nothing special - we can ALL do this. I hope this gives faith to those who need it out there - you can do this too and I believe in you! Do the things that scare you and if you fail, keep trying š¤
