5 sweaty 😓 miles 🏃‍♀️ on the treadmill this morning. I swear the gym had the air off or something with how muggy it was in there. Anyway... I almost overslept 😴 and missed my window of opportunity for this workout but I knew if I tried to rely on convincing myself to do it AFTER work then it just wouldn’t happen. So I was up and at ‘em and rushed out the door. 🙌 #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #runfitness #runningmotivation #f2cnutrition #hardcoeur #runinrabbit #runforfun https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQSozODHZv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bkkzmu4u2cmf

Deferred my OC Marathon entry to 2020. While I was completely bummed 🙁 to delay my pursuit of a BQ my body and my mind just weren’t up to it. Fatigue + sinus cold left me with very little functional reserve and I am only now just getting back into my routine. So cheers to those who raced today! I managed a few groggy and slow miles 🏃‍♀️ this morning and now I’m ready for some Cinco de Mayo 🌮 celebrating 🥳 #ShakaRunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #runitfast #zensah #homesweethome #runninglife #womensrunningcommunity #nikewomen #nikerunner #runinrabbit #f2cnutrition #hardcoeur #runbig #pineapples https://www.instagram.com/p/BxFwNpRjcMO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v2pbqs1wk3m6

Today was my first day back at the gym AND my first run after 2.5 weeks of literally NO exercise. I’m still not 100% recovered from my cold but I’m almost there. It was a slow run and I’m already a bit sore but it sure felt good to get my sweat on... AND to show off my awesome new ShakaRunner tank that my sister made. #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #runningmotivation #womensrunningcommunity #f2cnutrition #runinrabbit #nikewomen #nikeshoes #hardcoeur https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw41yHWjVrC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nd5ay3bkcivy

Had an absolute blast with these ladies on their first 3 mile group run. 🏃‍♀️ I am so proud of them for making it through Week 1 of training. 💪👏 And the best part of it all, they said they were glad they did it. I gain so much motivation and inspiration from moments like this and it just makes my heart happy. ❤️ I don’t think my smile in this picture truly captures how happy it makes me. Now hopefully they still feel that way after week 2 training 😉 #ShakaRunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #trainingbuddies #theenergylab #3miles #runrise #womensrunningcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv9ms38jcfv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u2tn0mijmlma

Spin. 🚲 Legs. 🦵 Planks (sorry no emoji for planks, 😆) 🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷 Normally by Friday I am having to drag myself out of bed for my workout but not this morning!! I was up and at ‘em and ready to roll. Probably because I realized yesterday that I have less than 40 days until my marathon 😁and that was both terrifying and motivating all at the same time. And so it was pedal to the medal this morning. #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #paincave #crosstraining #pedalforthemedal #planksfordays #legsworkout #fitwomen #strongwomen #f2cnutrition #runinrabbit #wahoofitnessofficial #wahooligan #hardcoeur https://www.instagram.com/p/BvnIbPMjuTJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q05zbfgq9j1t

5 mile run 🏃‍♀️ and I was surprised by how cold it was!! Good thing I didn’t believe my weather app and opted for a long sleeve too. I could see my breath that’s how cold it was!!! 🥶 This winter ❄️(which is the longest winter ever by the way) I’ve had to wear long sleeve tops on more of my runs than ever before. I usually could get away with shorts and tank tops all year long but not this year. I know I’ve said this before, but I’m done with winter. 😆 #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #runforfun #runforlife #runningmotivation #womensrunningcommunity #runitfast #f2cnutrition #hardcoeur #futurebostonmarathoner #2xu_usa https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvjv8wujwcT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3320ogkyo8yk

AM spin 🚲 , followed by some quick stretches 🧘‍♀️ , then it was time to hurry off to work. I wonder what normal people with regular work schedules do on Saturday mornings... lol. But then again, who wants to be normal?!! 😆Happy Saturday! #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #crosstraining #marathontraining #pedalforthemedal #happysaturday #fitnessinspiration #runningmotivation #tofittoquit #f2cnutrition #hardcoeur #runinrabbit #wahoofitnessofficial https://www.instagram.com/p/BvWmCXvDP9a/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nfov8vsso13d

Thank goodness I did my run this morning because it’s POURING now! 🌧 🌧 It was beautiful and sunny 😎 and I even had to change my top because it was so warm this morning. My run felt so energizing and refreshing. But now Mother Nature 🌬 is throwing another curve ball. TBD if I’ll be posting from outside 🏃‍♀️ or from the treadmill 🏃‍♀️ tomorrow morning. 😆 😉 #shakarunner #findyourhappypace #findyourpodium #marathontraining #womensrunningcommunity #runningmotivation #runforlife #f2cnutrition #hardcoeur #runinrabbit #nikewomen #runninglife https://www.instagram.com/p/BvQMV4Ij9Pr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d4sgcolw1msa
