  • ENDURANCE is a mental game and this mantra is one that has helped me tremendously over the years. // I got a lot of questions about breaking plateaus and honestly this little statement has been part of my process going from 0 post surgery to 50 mile weeks. // When we change our inner dialogue our body and mind begin to shift. Control the narrative of your runs. You most certainly won’t always believe it, but say it over and over to reprogram your thinking of what you can do. // Do you have something that helps you mentally on long runs or hard workouts?? . . . #runningmotivation #inspiringwomenrunners #gorun #runrunrun #marathontraining #irunthisbody #runnergirl #runnerslife #igrunner #runnershoutouts #morningworkout #bbgsisters #runnersofinstagram #runnersworld #runstagram #womensrunning #motherrunner #ukrunchat #runhappy #myfitnesspal #trailrunning
  • RECOVERY isn't just relaxing, it's working through tightness, muscle adhesion and restrictions that are preventing us from running our best. // @sidekicktool allows me to do at home what my PT and Chiro have often done to promote healing: 👉increasing blood flow 👉working directly in to a smaller more specific muscle area 👉releasing muscle adhesions // This is different than foam rolling which provides compression to the area because you can get more targeted and it improves proprioception. 👉Which is your body's awareness of exactly how it's moving through space...um hello to better and more powerful strides.🏃‍♀️ // I genuinely loved this on my glutes, but that's a different video for someone else to make. 🤣 // If you want to try one at home for 15% off use code runtothefinish or I'll put a link in stories. . BONUS: after purchase you get lifetime access to their University which teaches you exactly how to use the tool for your neck, calves, knee pain or whatever might be ailing you. // Have you ever tried scraping?? . . . #sponsored #unlockingmovement #workoutwednesday #shapesquad #teamwr #bbgcommunity #tiusummerseries #fittip #runnerland #beatyesterday #gorun #runnerscommunity #womenrunning #morningrun #sweateveryday #iamwellandgood #trailrunning #betterforit #runnersofinstagram
  • 7 MILLION READERS served and counting!! I want one of those freaking McDonalds signs, but with a side of sweet potato fries. // I try not to get too caught up in numbers, but realizing that many runners have found their way to my blog gives me warm fuzzies. // So much has changed since I started writing in 2007, but the one constant has been my desire to connect with other runners. 🥰 // If you’ve ever read a single thing on RunToTheFinish.com that helped you gimme a 👍today and I’ll handle the dance party on my own. 📸 @sierra_prescott . . . #runningcoach #runningblogger #fitnessblogger #fitfam #runchat #ukrunchat #bossbabe #womensrunningcommunity #inspiringwomenrunners #runnersworld #sweatpink #werunsocial #fitfluential #gorin #stravarun #beatyesterday #iwillwhatiwant #runningwoman #ihavearunnersbody #iamarunner #runtothefinish #runlikeagirl #motherrunner
  • 🤣🤣a little laugh after yesterday’s more intense discussion. What’s the BEST or WORST protein bar you’ve ever tried? // Thanks for all the messages and reminders that mistakes happen!! // On another note... I tried to play CSI yesterday by putting a small book on my car and seeing on how long it stayed on, a long time!! I then searched where it fell for my phone again 🤣🤣🤣 . . #runnerslife #runningmeme #runhappy #happyrunner #fitlife #werunsocial #runtothefinish #thesweatlife #iifym
  • MOOD😭 - Lost my iPhone Saturday which was an expensive mistake, but mostly a mentally frustrating one. I’ve never lost or broken a phone, until I finally got this phone that feels so extravagant. // Hours of hunting where it would have fallen. Hours of hoping a biker picked it up. An hour getting a new phone. Hours realizing my backups wouldn’t work. // In the end sh@! happens, but I needed a day to just be kinda ticked at myself. Today though it’s pity party over and onward!! That’s basically how I deal with most things, I’m allowed my UGH feelings, but only for a bit.😉 // What’s the most expensive 💰mistake you’ve made???
  • HEAT ACCLIMATION benefits our running, so let's turn those red sweaty frowns upside down. 🥵🔥 // Ok that was a lot even for me, but seriously here are some benefits from getting out in the heat: - Improves body's ability to regulate temperature - Expands blood volume - heart can pump more to your muscles, reduce blood lactate and increase muscle force - Better than altitude for increasing VO2 MAX - High heat training could help you when coming to altitude // Be smart with your hot runs and follow all the tips for better handling heat and humidity on my blog (search humidity from link in bio)!! . But also mentally embrace the benefits for your fall racing because no run is fun when you’re mentally miserable. // 👍👎Love or hate hot weather runs??? . . . #irunthisbody #ihavearunnersbody #runchat #sportsbrasquad #chicagomarathon #tiusummerseries #nikerunning #summerrunning #morningrun #runningtips #runningcoach #fitnessblogger #justkeeprunning #thesweatlife #sweateveryday #beatyesterday #betterforit #runstagram #halfmarathontraining #youvsyou #igrunner #stravarun #gorun
