Running Through Life

" I live with the thought that tomorrow is going to be a better day than today...and have a good attitude." - #GrandpaMac. ☺️ 91 years of love, laughter, service and wisdom. I had the privilege of meeting and celebrating Davey's grandpa this past weekend. ☺️ #myHeartIsFull ❤️ #HappyBirthday 🎉 #foodForThought #wisconsin #teamMcAleavey

All smiles after my long run this beautiful #Dallas morning in preparation for the #bostonMarathon2017! 💙💛 Recovery by #UCAN 😋 #TrainSmart #FuelRight 💪🏼

When you only check your mail once a quarter you find gems like this waiting for you in your mailbox. 💎 #BostonMarathon 💙💛 39 days until the race! 😆

Loved seeing Bah-Ren-To at the starting line and being greeted by him at the finish line, just to find out we both took 2nd place at the 2017 #Cowtown #Marathon race!!!🥈Brent ran a 2:33:17 💪🏼🏃🏻@bwoodle was my bestie, teammate, fellow ambassador in 2016 Dallas Sendai! #LoveIt #SomethingToSmileAbout #represent #JASDFW

Pirc & Piljuga... Mladen & Tanja ❤️ Who would have thought that all our #races to the chicken coop at our grandparents house when we were little... would have been hidden training for this race. 😆🏃🏃‍♀️ So glad I got to share this moment with you. #RunCowtown #brotherSister #Cousins #Metak #TwoPeasInAPod (at The Cowtown Marathon)

This sweet little girl was in her moms belly when I ran my first #CowtownMarathon in 2013! Loved seeing her excitement today. #FamilyFirst #Sara #TetkaTanja #RunCowtown (at The Cowtown Marathon)

A 3:06:50 for 2nd place finish at the Cowtown #Marathon! Couldn't have asked for a better day! 26.2 miles in near perfect conditions filled with family and friends. I can't help but smile 😀😃😄😁😆 (at The Cowtown Marathon)

#MarathonWeekend is here! 😆💪🏼...there is no better running than hometown running... @thecowtown 💜 Anxious to run down memory lane 🏃🏼‍♀️

Because we all know #beachBody is made in one day before vacation. 💪🏼😉 #mealPrep because my day is busy or I won't eat at all. 👍🏼😁😋 #NoHangryTanja #MarathonTraining #nutrition #fuel #Chicken #broccoli #sweetpotato #couscous #cranberries #fruitSnack

#MotivationMonday! Start your week with a plan to where you want to be. #SelfMotivation 💪🏼 I #lift to be #stronger, I #run to be #faster, I #eat to be #healthier.

Had a fun time cheering on #TeamCricket as they all ran sub 1:30 in windy conditions at @3mhalfmarathon! #chasingPRs #running is "fun" when you put in the work! 💪🏼💚😆 (at Texas State Capitol)

Proud of my #runningBabe! Cruising to a 6 min PR for @kadawson12 and 3rd place in her age group! 16th overall female! 🏅 Can't wait to see what she will do next time! #3MhalfMarathon #ATX Last time we were together in #Austin was for the #TexasRelays #TCU 💜 #TCUalumni (at Texas State Capitol)

From tears to smiles, he makes me feel like I'm on top of the world. #LoveMeSomeHim ❤️Crutched all around Houston to see me #run the @chevronhoustonmarathon. Constantly being reminded how lucky I am to have him in my life. #LoveYouBabe #HoustonWeDontHaveAProblem #HoustonMarathon #houMarathon #MySupport #MyLove

Moments are always better when shared. ☺️ 239 miles traveled to see me #run the @chevronhoustonmarathon! Thanks for the support and a fun weekend away from home. #🌱 (at Chevron Houston Marathon)

Today I'm joining the #DNF club. Mixed feelings but I called it a day. At about mile 15, I stepped off the course. #HoustonMarathon for me wasn't about completing another #Marathon, I wanted to race it. 💪🏼 The training was there, my support team was there, but due to less than ideal weather conditions it wasn't my day. #PositiveThoughts Plenty of races up ahead this year. (at Chevron Houston Marathon)

Race day isn't the challenging part, it's the reward for the months of hard work while training. Not going to let the heat stop me, I've ran, trained and raced in hotter weather! 😅 #BringItOnTexas 💪🏼☀️#HoustonMarathon #houMarathon #BibNumber (at Chevron Houston Marathon Packet Pick-Up)
