working out

Better than my last run. Still slow as fuck. #runforlife #runlikeawoman #strongwoman #instarunners #traininforragnarrelay #ragnarnwp #urbanrunners (at Downtown Everett)

Yesterday was a perfect day for a ferry ride. #beautifulcity #edmondswaterfront #edmonds #edmondswa #wsferries #pnwlife #kingstonwa #pugetsound (at Edmonds-Kingston Ferry)

My bad ass baby girl, Shannon and her "Battle Buddy" Sarah graduated Basic Training at Fort Jackson yesterday. She is off to become an ARMY Medic and earn her wings. She is amazing, smart, funny, and fierce! I couldn't be more proud of the woman she's become. She is a ROCKSTAR! #strongwoman #armystrong #USArmy #68W #COMBATMEDIC #proudmomm #thankasoldier #pvtjohnson

Today's Workout: Wasn't feeling very motivated tonight and almost quit halfway through. But I didn't! Not my best workout, but nowhere near absolute crap either. #lowimpact #precor #precoramt #runforlife #runlikeawoman #instarunners #badass #traininforragnarrelay #ragnarnwp (at Applied Technical Services)

Finally got my first portrait of my Soldier. Got more letters today. She's still kicking ass and doing amazing. Has higher PT scores than all of the other women and was made a Platoon Leader in addition being the appointed bay boss for the women's barracks. She loves doing the rucks and is embracing the hard work (the suck). Love this girl so much! #proudmomma #strongwoman #badass #basictraining #usarmy #armystrong #68W #combatmedic #privatejohnson #fortjackson #A-CO #2ndplatoon #rogue

Have you tried swearing? I am fluent in profanity. I've been told I have the vocabulary of a well educated sailor. #zerofucks

Came home to a mailbox full of letters from my baby girl today. She's so happy and working hard. Here is an excerpt of what she wrote to me: "I see my silhouette when the sun hits me just right and I see my uniform in my shadow my heart just flutters, I've never felt pride like this. I've never loved myself like I do right now. I wouldn't want to be anyone else, doing anything else." #proudmomma #basictraining #soldierintraining #USArmy #Armystrong #privatejohnson #68W #combatmedic #lettersfromasoldier #fortjackson

Came home to a mailbox full of letters today. So happy to hear from my Badass Baby Girl. She is working hard and so happy. Excerpt from one of her letters: "I see my silhouette when the sun hits me just right and I see my uniform in my shadow my heart just flutters. I've never felt pride like this.

3rd year running the Hot Chocolate 15K. Got to run with my amazing, beautiful, bad ass friend, Lettie. She inspires me! #hotchocolate15kSEA #runlikeawoman #runforlife #strongwoman #strongwomen #friendgoals #instarunners #urbanrunners #trainingforragnarrelay #innerwild (at Seattle Center)

Last workout before Sunday's run. The Precor Adaptive Motion Trainer is the BEST low impact workout I have found. LOVE this machine! #precor #precoramt #lowimpact #hotchocolate15kSEA #runforlife #runlikeawoman #strongwoman #instarunners #traininforragnarrelay #ragnarnwp #ragnarbourbonchase #innerwild (at Applied Technical Services)

Proud Momma moment. My amazing, smart, beautiful, badass baby girl is now soldier. Shannon has joined the Army on her way to becoming a Combat Flight Medic. The US Army just became one soldier stronger. I couldn't be prouder! #Armystrong #USArmy #68W #medic #privatejohnson #strongwoman #badass (at Military Entrance Processing Station)

At the @mirandalambert concert tonight. So much fun! (at Tacoma Dome)
