“I could never run a full marathon"
Those were the words I told myself more times than I can count! I kept thinking, How in the world will I ever find the time? With my schedule already packed, CIM training got whatever little time I had left over. But somewhere along the way between the chaos, the long days, and the countless moments I almost talked myself out of it, I learned to love the process.
The ugly.
The brutal.
The beauty.
The pain.
The cold early training runs.
Running doesn’t let you cheat the work. Every mile, every early morning, every sacrifice leads you to this exact moment. It's scary yet exciting! I’m so grateful I stayed consistent with strength training and Pilates, because I made it through injury-free! My recovery has also been so good 😊
This is my message to you if you’ve ever said, “I could never do (something that terrifies you) .”
It’s time to change the narrative.
It’s time to take your power back.
It’s time to go for it.

Surround yourself with people that see the strength in you and encourage you to step outside your comfort zone.

@g1_train was my running coach, reminding me to stay consistent, pushing me! Love you G 🤩 !
- @griss.mode forcing me to go on training runs, even when I told her I wanted to reschedule our marathon to next year 😭😂thank you for being my running buddy ! Loved doing this with you and it wouldn't have been the same without you! I really do think I would have rescheduled to next year if you didn't encourage me 🥺 love you boo!

Approximately 1.1 million runners complete a marathon each year-that’s only about 0.01% of the global population. 😱 Think about that 🧐
Why settle for average when you have the chance to do something incredible? Push yourself, set big goals, and don’t stop until you cross that finish line. The world needs more dreamers, doers, and finishers. Be one of them 😤💪🏽 #chicagomarathon

13.1 miles later: The girl who said she’d “never be a runner” just became a half marathoner. 🏅
This was easily one of the hardest mental and physical battles I’ve ever faced. At mile 9, I was ready to throw in the towel, but my girl @griss.mode stayed right by my side and got my head back in the game. I had to ask myself: “Am I willing to do what it takes?” The answer was a resounding yes. 💛
Years of heavy lifting. 👏🏽 Strength training kept me injury-free, and proper fueling kept the engine turning when the miles got dark.
Huge shoutout to the @run.nf crew for the Sunday pushes! We did that! Been consistently running since March. Proud of us all achieving our personal goals. ✨Got an amazing support system 😍

Beer City Half 🍻🏃🏽♂️
1:46:02
34th overall
14th in my age group
But that wasn’t even the best part 🙂↔️
@run.nf showed up with the biggest run group at the event, and for so many people this was their very first race ever. Watching people push through the heat, doubt, nerves, and every excuse in their head was honestly the highlight of the day.
That’s what this community is about. Challenging yourself. Showing up scared and doing it anyway. Proving to yourself that you can do hard things 😤
It was hot. It was tough. And we all beat that little voice telling us to slow down, quit, or stay comfortable.
Proud of every single person that crossed that finish line 🫶🏽#runnf #beercity #sacramento #runclub #wedidthat
