Happy Monday 😁! It was windy and cold in my face for this spring 10k run at -12°C. 😆 Nevertheless, it was fun and I prefer this temperature than too much heat. 😋 Happy earth day 🌍!!! The best option to protect the planet is to not buy anything you don't need. So be mindful of what you buy and focus on your needs, not your wants. 🙏🏼 It's also good for your wallet considering the cost of living and groceries in Canada these days 🥵. Taking care of the planet should be everyday not once a year 😊. The goal is not to be perfect, but mindful and consistent, something is better than nothing. Exactly like running!!! 💚💙💚💙 . . . #earth #earthfocus #earthday #bemindful #runfar #runnerslifestyle #running #ultrarunfit #halfmarathonttraining #marathon #runningultra #ultratrail #windy #trail #trailrunnerslife #protectnature #protectyourenergy #love #lovinglife #racing #outdoorlife #river #playoutside #casual #mondayworkout #mondaymotivation
Happy Tuesday everyone!!! ☀️ First spring hike of the year. Not near Quebec City because trails are not ready but south, paths are dry. Every year I say this... But don't go on muddy/ snowy/icy trails at this time of the year because it causes way too much damage to the forest when everything melts and you run/hike on it. 😊 Preserve our wonderful nature please so everyone can enjoy it too. Today's training was a 10k run + strength training 💪. (Hike was yesterday pm) Wanted to do 70k this week and so far in 2 days I did 24k so everything is going well 😊. Temperature is good too... For once 😂. Have a good training!!! . . . #runnerslife #hike #trailrunnerslife #trailrun #trails #defrost #springvibes #sunny #sunnyday #behappy #happytrails #ultratrailrunner #ultrarunner #ultratraining #gofar #runitfast #marathon #halfmarathonttraining #training #workoutoftheday #outdoors #playoutside #outside #tuesdaymotivation #tuesdayrun

Here we go Fierce Ones: Our Friday Prayer/ Battle Cry⚡️ Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. For the lessons we learned- the good, the bad, the ugly. For the hardships we faced & hope to overcome. For the wins that we celebrated & get to share. To the adventures in store. To the challenges we’ll face. To the blessings we’ll receive. And most of all for this precious gift of life we had the honor to have another day of…. And hopefully many many more 🙏🏻 … This week I had the honor & privilege to hold so many client sessions with women & men who I have seen grow & come into their own so much- especially over the past few months. I take the mentoring & coaching I do very seriously- if you trust me with your dreams, visions & heart, you better believe I’m going to do everything in my power to help you get there in a way that feels in integrity for you ⚡️ Not only this week, but this entire month has been filled with all the reminders of who I am, what I do in the world & how deeply I’m called to serve. And has brought with it not only all the visions of where it could go, but also the doubts & the fears. As big dreams & purpose & next steps tend to do 🔥 They can feel equally exciting & terrifying in the same breath- which often means we’re on to something amazing. Letting those fears point you in the direction of your desires not only helps, but often can set us free. And then turning that all into Fiercely Moving Forward? Literally life-changing & electrifying ⚡️⚡️⚡️ I plan to take that lesson with me as I’ll be dropping into a weekend of prepping for one of my FAVORITE local races next week- the @carlsbad5000 All Day 20k + lots of rest + tending my heart + as always- getting outside in the WILD as much as I possibly can 🌊🏃♀️🏝 I hope you all have a weekend filled with exactly the things you need, some adventures as you see fit & with a heart full of gratitude for it all Fierce Ones 🤍 Because we are here- with hearts beating & blood pulsing & souls dreaming- and that’s a gift I for one have made a promise deep in my heart to never overlook again. And that I’m more committed than ever to helping others feel as well⚡️⚡️⚡️
You have to smile about it or you’ll cry. Real feel of 19, snow, slippery spots, and wind in the teens. Ohio hasn’t gotten the memo that it’s spring. 12 miles with 7 easy and the last 5 moderate to finish faster. Happy Sunday! #halfmarathonttraining #runlikeagirl #ilovetorun #diabeticrunner #runnersofinstagram #indymini #snowsnowgoaway #springtimeinohio

Embracing the sunshine and no longer having stomach bugs in our house; woop woop! I’ve missed a week of running but I feel pretty good about it to be honest. Legs and lungs will probably benefit and I’m still fairly confident about hitting the half marathon distance in the next eight weeks. No speed goals take the pressure off a bit. Run club tonight for some easy miles in the dark and Percy Pigs for afters! #running #runner #runnersofinstagram #instarunner #thismumruns #motherrunner #mumswhorun #runhappy #ihavearunnersbody #runchat #runnerscommunity #womenrunners #irunthisbody #runlikeagirl #runthrough #runthroughuk #ukrunchat #halfmarathonttraining
This was my first run back for a while. Obviously the spinning doesn’t directly translate and it will be slow going for a bit. Stupid hills! #runnergirl #rny #justmeandmydog #halfmarathonttraining #flatcourse #hf8802 #ihatehills #gradeadjustedpace #ouchmybooty #tireddoodle
Forcing myself up and out when I didn’t want to this morning. Very slow run this morning but got to keep moving and I got it done. You’ve probably noticed I’m being a bit quiet but I’m just having a low energy moment. Also fell on my arse and slipped on the ice running this morning so that just summed it up. I lost 2.1 pounds this week so that’s 3.6 in total in Two weeks. Stayed in a calorie deficit and been running a lot more / netball so could be that contributing to the weight loss but I’m pleased and will continue . Im probably going to take some time out away from Insta this week but I’ll post now and again and I’ll be working out every day without fail. Have a good one lovelies #nevermissamonday #mondayrun #running #runnersofinstagram #runnersworld #couchtohalfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #lookafteryou #energy #vibes #trainedbycb #workoutformentalhealth #exerciseformentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #runningformentalhealth #courtneyblack28daychallenge #weightloss #weightlossprogress
half marathon number ✌🏼is done!!! 🏃🏼♀️ it seriously amazes me what our bodies are capable of when we stop selling ourselves short by limiting beliefs. this run was HARD. I honestly expected it to be easier this time around but those mental and physical barriers were really difficult to get through as the race went on. I had to tell myself “you can do this” a hundred times when things were getting really hard + I knew I could. I finished strong and shaved 17 minutes off my previous time! 👊🏻 today though, I can’t walk 😂 thank you for the supportive DMs and to my dad + @didyouknowbrianruns for doing this race with me 💗 let’s do this again in 4 weeks! 🏃🏼♀️
two weeks from today I’ll be running 13.1 number ✌🏼 back in june I talked about how I wanted to train for this one differently than I did the first time around and I want to give an update on what that ended up meaning: • instead of over-committing and under-delivering, I set realistic plans based on my already busy schedule + allowed myself to take on more when possible if it felt good 🙂 this is also how I managed to increase my pace without unrealistic expectations • I pushed myself to do things I didn’t think I could just because I never tried — I was holding myself back mentally in so many ways just bc I thought I wouldn’t be good enough. this included telling myself that I am a good runner and the only person I’m competing against is myself yesterday 💗 • I actually ate the amount of food and kind of food I needed to eat (especially before long runs) in order to not only complete the runs, but feel strong doing it 💪🏻 sometimes that even meant eating more than I “needed to” because I knew I would need the fuel next day • I did more mid-distance runs (4-6 miles) than long runs because the long runs take a toll on my joints, hips, toes, etc. 😅 it allowed me to set a good foundation for when I did do longer runs and increased my confidence in my abilities bc not every run was a major struggle • most importantly, I listened to my body and constantly changed plans without beating myself up about it 🏃🏼♀️ I definitely didn’t do every single run that I planned and it all still worked out! at the end of the day, I’m doing this for me + I want to enjoy the other parts of my life too. so cancelling a run so I could see my friends was always worth it ☺️ sharing these thoughts to look back on when I need the reminder, thanks to everyone that’s been cheering me on! ❤️ even though today’s 10 miler was tough I’m feeling ready for race day 🏃🏼♀️
one of the biggest life lessons I’ve learned from running is consistency > perfection this past week was a biggg struggle for me, not just in terms of running but all aspects of life 🙃 I was facing extreme burnout and found it almost impossible to get any workouts in rather than following my plan exactly I cut it down and focused on prepping as best I could for my long run this weekend by getting some much needed rest, doing a shorter run + opting for a couple morning walks/stretching I had thoughts coming into my head during the week that I was failing, not living up to my plans + taking the easy route. but I know that’s not true. I’ve been consistently prepping for these runs for the past 3 months — fueling my body with good food, staying healthy + hydrated, getting out on the roads as often as I can, and keeping my eyes on the end goal 🏃🏼♀️ all of this work didn’t go away from one hard week! when we expect perfection from ourselves it can feel like a failure when we don’t meet that standard even though we’re working SO hard. I’m embracing doing this imperfectly — as long as I’m not quitting I’m succeeding. after a week of feeling down, I went out and ran 7 miles, crushed my pace goal + felt amazing ❤️ trust the process!!
Scroll down for 🇬🇧 #derfrühevogel läuft bei angenehmen Temperaturen 😄 und ich bin in das Training für den #tegernseehalbmarathon gestartet. Endlich Vorfreude auf einen #wettkampf 🇬🇧 #earlybird at still comfortable temperatures and with this run I also startet training for a #halfmarathon in September.

I found running two years ago when I forced it into my life (like, signed up for a half marathon before ever running my first mile forced) I knew it would make me feel stronger but I didn’t know it would change the way I looked at every hard thing in my life 🏃🏼♀️ I found out how strong I was every time I tied my laces and got myself out on the road. every time I ran a little bit further, I was stronger for the next little bit further... and the next... eventually I became someone I genuinely didn’t know I could ever become — a runner. I used to make jokes about how my parents happen to be phenomenal runners and I couldn’t jog down the street, but I always really wanted to be able to do it. I was scared to start though — running is so vulnerable. the thought of doing the hardest thing I could think of, outside in my hometown neighborhoods, scared the heck out of me. but I kept going. I knew it was going to suck every time (and honestly it kind of did) but I fell in love with feeling stronger. I got out there every single week, with lots and lots of hard days, and often at a very slow pace, and continued to push myself. I’m still in awe that I ran 13.1 miles. It’s my biggest accomplishment in my life. It holds so many emotions that may seem silly to some people, but it’s everything to me. when I finished the half marathon, I realized how strong I really was. I refuse to believe there’s anything I can’t do anymore. I’m here with my crazy post-run hair to say: I just signed up for my next 13.1 for this october and I am so excited to do this crazy thing all over again. let’s do this!!! 🥳
🏃🏼♀️ MY FIRST 10 MILE RUN 🏃🏼♀️ . I feel so proud as this was... ☑️ My furthest run (16KM) ☑️ My longest run (1 hour 32 minutes) . It is a massive step in the right direction for my half marathon training 🏃🏼♀️🥳 I’m also really happy I maintained a decent pace for the whole of 16KM! Right now, my focus is going further and further, not my pace...for the next few weeks at least!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 💫🥂✨ • I decided we should run into 2021, the same way we ran out of 2020 - with a 10 km run! 🏃🏼♀️ • I like taking the first week or so of the new year to think about some goals I would like to reach this year. I already have a few in mind but I like to think them over before making a final decision! 🙌🏻 Some of the ones currently mulling around in my head include: stretching more, more consistent strength training and potentially an ultramarathon (🤩). • Do you have any goals in mind for this year?! 🤗 ••• #goodbye2020 #hello2021 #welcome2021 #runninggoals #2021goals #runninginspiration #runningmotivation #ihavearunnersbody #irunthisbody #believeinyourself #marathontraining #halfmarathonttraining #distancerunner #diverserunnersworld #altra #altrarunning #altrarunningfans #womensrunningcommunity #girlsrunfast #womenrunning #womenwhorun #runtoinspire #newsyearday #everybodycanrun #womensrunningcommunity #inspiringwomenrunners #igrunners #runnersofig #jilliansrunningjourney #runningblog

Well it was a frosty and chilly one this morning but was actually great weather for a run even if there was a few slippery bits!!

Took a tiny cut back this week with 66 miles. Wrapped up our Sunday with 10 miles @ 7:42 min/mile avg, and attempted to catch the rocket launch which was uneventful because of the cloud coverage. . Hopefully this will be the last run (for the next couple days) that's in awful summer-like weather. It seems like whatever cold front coming our way won't be here for long though, because we have another storm brewing off the coast. 😭 . How are we almost in December and still in the middle of hurricane season?

New shoes and new hair! Motivation to finally go for a run this morning before it got too hot. It’s been a couple of hectic weeks - this is day 11 of working long days straight through. #womenwhorun #covidactivity #halfmarathonttraining
Another week, another running PB. Absolutely chuffed. When I first started running my average pace was between 6:31 and ,6:51. So the fact I just managed 5K, with hills, at 6:07 I am chuffed! I know not every run will be like this though but glad to see it's going in the right direction! . #run #running #halfmarathonprep #runningprep #runningtraining #halfmarathonttraining #5K #runforcharity #runnersofinstagram #runningmotivation
Hey so I'm back. Took some time off after the #GRRKOP 10 miler 📈📉because tired. Because lazy. Because reasons. But got back up off my ass yesterday for 3miles with @jenrunstrails521 and just now another 2miles solo with my @goodr Gardening with a Kraken shades😎. Gotta get back on it...or get down *on* it with Kool and the Gang? (🎤Putchur back up on the wall. Dance! C'mon!).

Sunday Run Day. I fell short of my 7 mile goal today but that wind was brutal! Now, I can happily enjoy some super bowl snacks and beer 🍻 #run #runner #running #outdoorrunning #halfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #superbowl #health #fitness #beer
Thursday night group run was a success! We had some walkers, some runners, and distances ranging from 2-5 miles. Many of our Thursday night runners often arrive early to get in a few miles before to make it a midweek long run. Whatever you need, we likely have someone your pace or distance so come out and join us! . . . . Next week's Thursday group run will start at 6:00 pm at City Station following our special education session at 5:30 on how to make the most of an indoor workout. Hope to see you there!! 🙌🏼🎉 #grouprun #wgtcrun #run #westgeorgiarunners #runcarrollton #carrolltonrunners #halfmarathonttraining #marathontraining #runnersofig #runhappy #runsocial
First run of 2020 consisted of a 35 minute “tempo” run... minus the tempo. 4+ miles later followed by a short walk I couldn’t help but think that life is all about #perspective. I looked in one direction while #running and it was dark and gloomy. In the other direction, beautiful blue sky with flurries. We can focus on the negative or we can look another way and find the beauty. Preachy? Oh totally... but after what 2019 brought us... I’m not looking back and determined to find that bright blue sky in every day.
Speed work Tuesday • Today I had three sets of cut down intervals totaling 1200m with a 400m recovery. Honestly I didn’t give this workout much thought. Sometimes I look at my workouts ahead of time and overthink them and luckily I’ve just been too busy this week to do that. I think if I would’ve really thought about what I was doing, it would’ve freaked me out because having to get faster every 1/4 mile for 3/4 mile is a decently sustained effort compared to what I’ve done lately. It’s nice going into a workout fearless just ready to see what you can do. I hit almost all the paces, some too fast and a couple a little slow but I’m just really proud of where I’m at right now. @katherun26.2 posted about the mundane work we put in that no one sees and I’ve put in a lot of that mundane work over the last 6 months of injury in order to come back so much stronger. I’m thankful for the mundane and I’m thankful for exciting workouts like today. It’s all part of why I’m so in love with this sport.

This year in February we got to meet @jeffgallowayolympian and his wife at the @waltdisneyworld Princess half marathon expo!! Jeff Galloway has such a great 1/2 marathon training program with @rundisney! If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should!! Today for Lindsey’s 1/2 marathon training, she needed to run 9 miles. It was crazy hard but she got it done!!
Finished a great week yesterday with a 10 mile long run and 24 miles for the week! I love that it’s starting to feel natural again to add miles and go for longer runs. Every moment of that 10 miler was full of joy, even with the sweat dripping off of me and the temps increasing. I try to remember how much of a blessing it is to get to run, and it’s amazing how joyful 10 long miles can feel with a heart of gratitude. ♥️ Rested today and now I’m ready for another week of building. 🏃🏻♀️
A sweaty 5k today in my new t-shirt to get me motivated. Not my fastest as I’m not used to running up hills, nor have I run for two weeks and been on an all inclusive holiday 🤦♀️.... #LHM #TeamTommys @londonlandmarkshalf @tommys_thebabycharity #running #halfmarathonttraining #mondayrunday #mondayrun #halfmarathon

Sunday runday! Back at it with the kids on the road, pavement and dirt. I missed the miles. I missed the meditation. I missed the views. I missed the freedom. - After I finished nursing my littlest, I hit a low. I had post-partum anxiety, the baby blues and possibly #ppd. I was good at nothing, responsible for everything, plus, it was the anniversary of my parents’ deaths and the time of year I get all my #preventativehealth screenings. - Everything stressed me out. I was immobilized by fear of not being perfect, feeling like I’m not being a good enough mom, feel like I’m not an empathetic enough friend or colleague. I stopped working out because “who has the time?” Everything took too long and I had no time for anything. I felt helpless. Then felt guilty for these feelings because We are lucky, blessed and privileged for the life we have. What a viscous cycle. - Once a friend of mine connected my feelings to the timing of my completing nursing i felt relief. There was an answer. I slowly got out of it with support of my family, hubs, mommy community and even some of these @beautycounter ladies. - New job(s), new appreciation for life and my children, new me! - I decided it was time to refocus on me. I got the @onepeloton, spent more time at @corepoweryoga and finally getting back to my @bobgearus for some runs. - Happy Sunday. - Make some you time this week. -
Not pleased with today’s run. Calf cramped during the first 1.6 miles and didn’t want to loosen up even with stopping to stretch it out. But I got to use my new Garmin so that part was fun! #running #garmin #halfmarathonttraining #
Sunday Runday! 9.1 miles to add to "Run the Year!" So far, that brings me to 100 miles in 2019. So far, I am killing my goal of making it to 505 by the end of the year. The hills in Stuttgart aren't always fun but days like today make me proud to keep going.

This mornin I realized the different daycares for the kids at the gym were actually gonna be open at the same time (its not ever like that on Saturdays), so we went over and I got in a 4th workout for the week! Some weights then a 3 mile run with negative splits.

With all the miserable, weather, I considered skipping my shortest run of the week.

Skirt Sport pants!! First time I’ve tried them and love them! Nice compression and great waistband, by which ALL running pants should be rated! I was dreading what I thought was hill day and was pleasantly surprised when I looked at my training plan and it said Tempo Run! 1 slow mile warm up, 3 miles at tempo pace, and 1 slow cool down.

Boxing Day Outting! 💪🏽😘 . Five Weeks Postpartum Tomorrow 🏃🏼♀️ . Last week I got signed off to start my return to running and this week I started.. I’ve been walking for 30 mins a day since I was two weeks postpartum and increasing the pace (I feel amazing), this week the plan is Walk 9 Light Run (jog) 1 min x3, followed by Walk 8 Light Run (jog) 2 min x3 and so on until I’m running for a full 30 mins! I’m really listening to my body and taking it steady but I can’t tell you how good it feels to be out again! 🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️ . “I’m not addicted to running, I’m addicted to the way it makes me feel” 👍🏽😘 . #run #runner #runnersofinstagram #runners #halfmarathon #halfmarathoner #halfmarathonttraining #boxingday #love #happy #rundisney #5weekspostpartum #fitmom #fitness #fitlife #strong
The view on my morning run today. I say run in the loosest of terms. Mr A and I are ment to be training for an half marathon, his training is going great mine on the other hand.....! Seriously been lacking motivation, I think it's the dark mornings and dark nights. Although this morning I got up and went and to me it doesn't matter if I didn't run as well as I have done it's the fact I went. It helped listening to @deliciouslyella podcast and the view of course. #earlymornings #run #halfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #lackingmotivation #needmotivation #darkmornings #darknights #podcast
9 rolling miles. The hills felt like they were never going to end. #motherrunner #bob #halfmarathonttraining #pv
So I almost didn’t go on my run this morning.. my left leg was giving me pain last night before bed and I wasn’t sure I would be able to do my run this morning.. ended up sleeping in, my leg felt better so I decided to do my run but was going to just take it slow. It’s funny how the runs you don’t want to do can turn out to be your best runs!! Didn’t get to wear one of my @skirtsports skirts bc I forgot to switch the laundry over before bed last night (mom brain) but I’m so beyond happy right now with my time and how that run felt! #motherrunner #skirtsportsambassador #garmin #brooks #procompression #halfmarathonttraining
Birmingham Half Marathon, a few years ago, just before the start with new and old friends. Great day for running. Hilly finish was a challenge but great fun. Amazing support from the people of Birmingham for the entire route. #birminghamhalfmarathon #running #halfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #marathon #marathontraining #triathlontraining #triathlon #runners #runnersofinstagram

When your 15k easy paced long runs turn into half marathons with the second half at race pace 💪🏻👌🏼🏃🏻♂️ feeling strong . Now time to recover by the beach ☺️ #run #runs #running #runner #runners #longrun #halfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #runforfun #runnerlife #runnersofinstagram #runningmotivation
What if I told you I could do both in the same day. 😏😂 Nothing like a long run to make you hungry for two days. 🤣🙌🏻 Running friends what's your favorite half marathon treat meal? All my post race meals have been in Epcot. Nothing like a macaron ice cream sandwich to pat yourself on the back. 💕
Just going to brag a bit. 2 hour half marathon distance!!! Get in!!! I so needed that after a disastrous long run two weeks ago! That’s a confidence booster for next weeks half. I can do this. PS. My bum didn’t eat my shorts either...bonus😁 @the_fitness_shak #thefitnessshak #garmin220 #running #thisgirlruns #runninggirl #myrunningjourney #humberbridgehalftraining #halfmarathonttraining #mindovermatter #irunthistown @361europe #361degreesmeraki

I went for a run tonight, and it’s not even a Thursday 💁♀️🤙 Hoping to eventually start running 3 times a week to be able to run for longer, maybe even running somewhere which isn’t Bute Park 🙈 _____________________________________ #halfmarathonttraining #strava #fitbit #couchtohalfmarathon #fitness #twasmyfitness #jogging #running #fitnessjourney #health #butepark #cardiff #exercise
Nice little 5:30 start this morning for a steady 5 miler, pace is improving and good to get the miles in #running #halfmarathon #halfmarathonttraining #halfmarathonman #fitness #fitspo #earlymorninggrind
When I look in the mirror, I see a woman with joy, peace, hope, and 15 pounds gone! #cleaneating #plantbaseddiet #leanmuscle #healthygains #excessbaggage #halfmarathonttraining
I think a runners biggest challenge is knowing when to reset. Not every run is going to be perfect, and not every run will you hit pace or PR. • • Today’s run was 5 miles and ended with an average pace of 9:11, not bad right? What you don’t see with that time is the fact that I started at an 8:30 pace and couldn’t seem to slow myself down. The wind was so cold and strong that I felt like I was fighting to run up the hills, and mentally I kept saying “maybe I could stop for a second.” Despite all of my doubts and struggles I did finish my run. I acknowledged today wasn’t a perfect run and reset. It is so important to be able to acknowledge your good AND bad runs and remember that you start from zero every time you start a run. • • This was the first long run on my journey to my half in May and my full in October. It’s crazy to think that there will be a day that five miles will feel like nothing. I am so thankful for my “running team” who come out in the freezing cold to support me and cheer me on. Another day another step closer to my end goal💪🏼 • • #runnersofinstagram #running #halfmarathonttraining #ashleysracetothehalf #everybodyisbeatiful #workout #health #brooksrunning
3.5 very early, very sore, very slow, very grateful, very happy treadmill miles this morning 🤗 Happy Tuesday, friends!
Next month is my first half marathon in 2018 the @nycruns Ladies First. Who else is doing it? Winter training is a challenge but not impossible. I’m trying to break 2 hours this time. Also, can’t wait for track Tuesdays in March w/ @runstreet. Go out there and run! #halfmarathonttraining #runwithellie #godoit #mondaymotivation
I will never tire of this view!🏃☀️ 🌊 #nikeplus #sundayrunday #leftcoastrunners
I’m only in competition with myself. It’s me vs. me and I’m working at being better than I was the day before! 🏃🏼♀️ #momswhorun #mauirunner #mauirunning #halfmarathonttraining
