Did you do your half marathon?, I cant find the video.

2 minutes in. Can’t watch anymore

Man. It all happened. I understand. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber here.

Did you decide to toss Jeffing? I personally have just started the Galloway method after a double hernia operation set me back for a while and while I am all the way down to 30/30sec RW, it is really feeling good.

Girl all those feelings about celebrating after the race at the parks - one thing I suggest - coffee. Stay heavily caffeinated and you will go the distance 😊. But seriously you just need to add self care after your races. Lots of stretching, hydrating and eating right. Listen to your body and take a nap. Once you do all these things you will be able to enjoy the parks. I did the parks after Goofy 2020 and WDW marathon 2020.

Have totally eaten bugs on runs before LOL Awesome job getting it done!

Proud of you!!!! Let’s do this!!!! Perfect season here we gooooooo!

Love your 5 minute interval approach! That is a creative way to make the time go quickly and also not constantly changing intervals on the treadmill which can be tricky!

Great videos. Why don’t you get a gym boss to use during your intervals that way you won’t need to look down 😊

This was fun to watch. My step kids run though Helen a bit since their mom lives there! All of us also enjoy running at Unicoi State Park near there. Have you ever ran the Helenback race they have in April?

I have a Garmin Forerunner 645 Music which I love! Picked it partly because I could load my music on it but it does everything I need for my running ❤️ husband has an Apple Watch and stepson has a Coros watch which he likes. So many different options out there!

Talk about mommy training. 💪🏼💪🏼

What do you think of the Osmo pocket 2?? I have the first version, wondering if I should get the newer one. Also love the nose scroll 😋 awesome job getting it done! #keepshowingup ❤️

I'm an Apple Watch girl. I've been using one since they came out in 2015. I take mine off every night and charge it, and have never really had an issue with battery life. The very first one that I had, I started having an issue with the battery going down pretty quick after about three years, but the newer ones I haven't. I ran (and by ran, I mean walk/run) for almost five hours on Saturday and my watch still had charge when I took it off around 11:00 that night. I know some people that love Garmins too though. Also, the weather will usually show up in the watch app on your phone. I don't usually check the weather in the Fitness app on my watch.

I’ve never heard anyone say out loud about how you have already played the conversation in your head and you are ahead of the conversation. I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT THIS ABOUT MYSELF. I have already played all the words through and have to stop interrupting. - Fellow GA Gal

Was that race day for walking and running?

I tell myself every year I am going to run this, but I never have. Is that close to Lenox Square Mall? I have been shopping there (well, more window shopping because I can't afford most of those stores) many times. I didn't realize the road race was close to that if it is. Also, I would've had to run faster or go slower to get away from Santa. That would've driven me crazy before I finished.

Usually when a car stops before or after passing me or I see them pass me several times while I'm running, I will pull out my phone and call someone and let them see me talking on my phone. I normally will tell the person why I'm calling so at least someone will know immediately that I have been snatched. I had a guy pass me three times years ago when I was walking to my cousin's house and then on the last time he stopped about 50 yards from me & got out of the car. I kinda paused and he said, "you like what you see?" I had no idea what he was talking about until I realized he was exposing himself. I was flabbergasted and didn't say anything. He finally got back in his car and left & continued the 100 yards left to my cousin's house (I was less than a quarter of a mile from my house). I thought of a million things I should've said or done after the fact, like take a picture of his license plate or tell him that I was not impressed by what I saw, but I just think I was in shock because that had never happened to me before.

I'm a minimalist runner too, but I don't think I could ever run in the Vibrams. I need the cushioning of tennis shoes. Lol I don't like to carry anything with me that I don't feel like it absolutely need. That's why I can't really do costumes when running because I know by the end of the race I would be super annoyed and regret my life decision to wear it. Southern humidity is no joke. I'm in SE Tennessee (literally 15 minutes from Georgia), and almost every run this time of year no matter the length I finish almost as soaked as if I had jumped in a pool. Drives me crazy, but I don't enjoy runs on the treadmill much either. I'm a big Braves fan too. My Dad was a HUGE Braves and Falcons fan and the love for the Braves rubbed off on my and my sisters. I can take football or leave it. I do understand the heartache of losing your Dad 100%. My Dad very unexpectedly passed away in April 2020 and I'm pretty sure my heart has been permanently cracked from it. I didn't run much for almost a year because that, plus the pandemic, just made me not care about much of anything. Pretty sure I could ramble a response to about everything you talked about, but I will stop now before I bore you. Lol😂

I think I see Jesus multiple times during races 😂

I love how you're yourself with strangers!

So proud of you!!!! I’m adding this race to my list for sure!!!

Yep going down in a race is awful

Need details Shepard Center looked awesome

The holy water! I❤️

Love your bow! You are fantastic and honest! So proud of you ❤️❤️❤️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Looks like a cool place to run! Awesome job getting out there 🏃‍♀️❤️ #keepshowingup 😊

Love everything you said in this video (being a Christian, but failing daily…isn’t that all of us! As the saying goes, we aren’t perfect, just forgiven ❤️) I am a stepmom too, to two awesome cross country runners (an upcoming senior in HS and upcoming freshmen in college). I also am not a cook, had to learn real quick when I married my husband and had kids to cook for lol 😂 I am the same way with Disney, love some aspects, could do without others…so thank you for sharing that. Enjoyed this get to know you run, thanks for sharing, and awesome job getting those miles!
