Hey all! How I post content to X is changing. X raised the price on their API, so I will no longer use it via Metricool. I will be using IFTTT to transfer my content from IG to here, meaning it will be ugly links, but I'm still here. I rec hitting me on TikTok or IG instead ✌️
I'm a week behind on editing, but here is the tiniest glimpse of Summer Speedwork put on by Big River running! I forgot to take any vids until we were done 😬 oops! But honestly, it was nice to focus on the running. I was skeptical about having this many… instagr.am/p/DZkFxKHCNrU/

Ok, running & fitness fam: What's a workout you're proud of that had nothing to do with the pace or time? 🏃♀️💬
Not every workout is a PR, and that's okay. In fact, most of them shouldn't be, but that's a topic for another post.

It is no secret that I have taken a too-long break from speed work. I just haven't had the drive to get out there and get it done, to be honest. I do have a key race coming up (Peachtree), and I am okay with adjusting my expectations given where my train… instagr.am/p/DZACiL9Cd0t/

This past weekend, I ran the Saint Louis Track Club Member Appreciation 5k! It was super fun, and a great excuse for me to finally make it out to Tower Grove Park! The park is so nice and green, the pavilions look very ornate, as if they're rather old, b… instagr.am/p/DX_xn9vj8Dl/
