  • HIP/GLUTE BAND WORK: A lazy bum is a precursor to all kinds of running injuries...so let’s wake up those 🍑 . // Mini bands are a quick way to fire things up whether you do 3 rounds as a workout or 1 round pre-run. Checkout these variations👇 // 1. Squat with the band helps you maintain keeping knees wide and not allowing them to fall inward. 2. Straight leg side, forward and back walk hits things differently than the standard monster walk 3. But the monster walk rocks. Focus on maintaining band resistance throughout. 4. Pick ups with work your hip flexors, which we often stretch but not strengthen. 5. Then you can hit this a variety of ways with leg lifts! // As always of you want more videos gimme a 👍and save this for later! . . . #womensrunning #teamwr #workoutvideo #minibandworkout #minibands #itband #hipworkout #gluteworkout #workoutathome #homeworkout #shapesquad #popsugarfitness #motherrunner #womensrunningcommunity #runningcoach #runningblogger #bodyweightworkout #fitnessmotivation #inspiringwomenrunners #runningmotivation #runnerclick #runnersworld
  • POST SURGERY PR...I am so grateful each day this body shows up for me. But in total honesty, part of me was disappointed and had my friend @therunnerbeans not caught up with me shortly after the finish I’d likely have shed a few exhausted tears.😭 // I had an idea of what I wanted to run (and am capable of). Shaving another 30 seconds off wasn’t it.🤦‍♀️ // My watch finished with 13.35 miles so I can give myself the grace to say that extra .25 played a role. // Luckily the wiser part of me is super proud of a lot of miles under goal pace. The wheels never fell off, I didn’t bonk, I just mentally felt like I was fighting for each step and thought I was going to get my 1:50, helping me break the barrier back to my 1:44 time. // More of the entire Seawheeze EXPERIENCE, plus a link to blog post with what you need to know in stories! . . . #seawheeze2019 #seawheeze #halfmarathon #runtothefinish #irunthisbody #bibchat #ukrunchat #runchat #werunsocial #womensrunning #sundayrunday #morningrun #gorun #beatyesterday #medalmonday #runhappy #halfmarathontraining #teamwr #runlikeagirl #lovetorun #runnersofinstagram
  • RACE DAY is here again, now all that’s left is to see what my body and brain can do.🤷‍♀️ // Having not felt well this week, I’ve definitely rested and I know I’ve trained...so fingers crossed this is another post surgery PR. But even if not, already lots of fun seeing a new city and friends. // If you haven’t been to stories lately the new weekly poll is up, where I’m 😂over the worst thing you’ve forgotten for a race answers (most common is bib!!)) and I’ll share more of #seawheeze . . . #beatyesterday #seawheeze2019 #runhappy #halfmarathon #bibchat #medalmonday #runchat #ukrunchat #gorun #werunsocial #teamwr #lululemon #gorun #nikerunning #nikeepicreact #runningwoman

  • IT’S MY BIRTHDAY and I’ll run in a tiara and eat vegan cake for breakfast if I want to.😁 // 38 is still just the beginning and I can’t wait to see what this year of life holds. Thanks to all of you for being part of my community and the way you support and lift each other up, that’s truly the best gift. // But also feel free to share a post from me today to tell others I’m awesome 🤣🤣🤣#humilityismystrongpoint . . #birthdaygirl #vegancake #runhapppy #happyrunner #lifeisgood #neverstoprunning #runningwoman
  • VARIETY ISN’T just the spice of life, it’s key in our nutrition and training to ensure we’re getting everything we need! // #ad The cold-pressed juices from @evolutionfresh provide me a variety of nutrients to refuel. 🏃‍♀️🧘‍♀️🥰 While events like @wanderlustfest remind David that after a 6 month hiatus he can run and me that a structured yoga class is really useful. 👏 We both may have also found the meditation a good time to nap, oops! // 👉How do you mix it up with food or training??? As some who love routine, I need these pushes.👈 . . . #EvolutionFresh #EvolvetheDay #CeleryGlow #wanderlust108 #sportsnutrition #foodisfuel #plantbasedathlete #runnerslife #fittogether #fitcouple #runningbuddies #seenonmyrun #wanderlustfest #happyrunner #runtothefinish #crosstraining #werunsocial #sweatpink #thisgirlcan #womensrunningcommunity #mindbodygreen #iamwellandgood #lifeisgood #iloverunning #denverblogger
