Today was a day of reflection. At one point, time sort of slowed down and the minutes stretched in a delicious way. I sat and pondered this tree, this convolution, and let my thoughts drift a little. The sun shining, the wind just gently blowing fallen leaves across the street, there. #bestmeditationinages #runinspired #treewisdom #layers #consciousness #ikindalichenit hehe...

Ragnar Relay Michigan - Leg 13, my 2nd of the race. Fueled by Sour Patch Kids, Nuun, and more damned motivation to keep going strong. 11 kills, lots of great support and laughs from my Van 1 teammates along the route, good music to sing to, and a beautiful sunny day to top it all off. I may just be in love with running, and relay races! Splits: 8:44, 8:14, 8:19, 8:07, 8:16, 8:08. 😊 - - - #runnergirl #ragnarrelay #ragnar #ragnarmichigan #teamnuun #handful #nuunbassador #michiganrunnergirl #runningcommunity #runners_of_insta #igrunnerz #runnersofig #runhappy #runnersofinstagram #runningaddict #fitover40 #womenrunners #runinspired #runwithfriends #michiganrunner #womensrunningcommunity #runmichigan #runmuskegon #muskegontotraversecity #wakeupkickassrepeat

Six mile Saturday 😎

I ran my 1st marathon this weekend. I needed time to reflect before sharing my experience. This wasn't intended to be my 1st marathon. I signed up 9 days before the race. Only a few friends knew. I was scared, probably crazy, but wanted to push myself. I knew I wasn't fully trained, but I wanted to run. I needed to feel the pain and joy that comes from going farther than I'd ever gone before, physically and mentally. My friends were running the half marathon. They started 13.1 miles away from me. I started this race alone. I finished this race with the love and support of 2 women I am lucky to call my best friends, one of their incredibly supportive spouses, as well as dear friends whom provided advice, checked on me, and helped me after the race. The look you see on my face in these photos are quite possibly hysterical tears of joy. I was overcome with emotion upon seeing my friends near the finish. They were there as I made one of my dreams come true. I had a bucket list goal to complete a marathon before turning 50. I accomplished my dream just over 1 year from my self-imposed deadline. I may have physically run the race, but I couldn't have done it without my friends. I owe them all my love and gratitude. Another friend recently told me, "we are all like family in running". He couldn't have been more correct. We truly, truly are. I'm happy I took that first step. I look forward to the next 26.2 mile journey. Thank you for allowing me to share my journey with you. 😊 - - - #runnergirl #solesisters #marathoner #bayshore #bayshoremarathon2017 #running #womensrunning #nuunlife #nuunbassador #runningfamily #runnersofinstagram #igrunners #runners_of_insta #runninginspiration #womensrunningcommunity #runninggoals #runningmama #runningmotivation #runinspired #michiganrunnergirl #runmichigan #runmi #runtraversecity #fitoverforty #dreamcometrue #bucketlist #wakeupkickassrepeat

Busy day. Lots of mom responsibilities, but I didn't let that stop me from getting my run in during my daughter's soccer practice. Splits: 9:02, 9:15, 9:34, 9:42, 10:18, 10:35, 10:16, 9:05, 9:05. 😊 - - - #runnergirl #nuunbassador #nuun #womensrunning #womenrunners #runningmotivation #runningaddict #runningmama #runninginspiration #runnersofinstagram #runnerslife #runningcommunity #runinspired #newmusic #metronome #runmi #runmichigan #michiganrunner #runmuskegon #fitoverforty #fitness #workout #workoutmotivation #wakeupkickassrepeat

Last night's run. Some days you need to push yourself. Some days you need to see how far you can go. Some days you don't want to stop. Yesterday was one of those days. Life is short. Don't waste a damn minute of it. 😊 - - - #runnergirl #womensrunning #nuunlife #nuunbassador #runningcommunity #womenrunners #runnersofinstagram #igrunners #runnersofig #runningaddict #runhappy #runners_of_insta #runmuskegon #runmichigan #runmi #michiganrunner #liveloverun #fitoverforty #runningmotivation #runninginspiration #runinspired #stravarun #handful #hokaoneone #determinedaf #wakeupkickassrepeat

Easy early morning adventures on trails and road with my sole sister, Kim! The views of the Muskegon River and conversation were worth every minute! You are never too old to try something new. You are never too old to explore. Don't just think about it, get out there and do it! Life is short. Make the most of your days. 😊 - - - #runningmotivation #runnergirls #runninginspiration #runinspired #runningcommunity #womenrunners #womensrunning #runners_of_insta #runnersofinstagram #igrunners #trailrunning #runmuskegon #runmi #runmichigan #runhappy #fitness #runningaddict #fitnessmotivation #workout #getoutdoors #fitoverforty #fitoverfifty #nuunbassador #nuunlife #oisellevolée #wakeupkickassrepeat
