Enjoy the journey! 🏃‍♀️💗

After a pretty tough workout, we stopped to enjoy the beauty in our local city park.

Where do I even begin? 🥹
This morning was nothing but love, laughter, and smiles — a reminder of why I run. 💛

A few months ago, my cousin asked about my running class and wanted to train for a 5K. She showed up, stayed consistent, and built strength one workout at a time. Today she crushed it — running faster than she ever expected! I’m so proud of you, Sandy, getting to run beside you was such a gift. 🥰

To top it off, two of my amazing friends earned new PRs today!! 🎉 They’ve worked so hard, and it was their moment to shine. I also got to watch another friend pace the sweetest little girl in all of Dallas. 🏃‍♀️💨

Everywhere I looked, I saw familiar faces, friends, and runners — all out there hitting goals and cheering each other on.

Running truly is a gift… and today reminded me just how special that gift really is. 💫

Congratulations to

The half marathon is a strange, beautiful distance — long enough to test your endurance, but short enough to remind you that speed still matters.

For beginners, two hours feels like an eternity. But here’s the secret: the magic isn’t in the time — it’s in the transformation. The first few miles test your patience. The middle miles test your discipline. The final stretch? That’s pure heart.

Whether you’re chasing a sub-2:00 or simply trying to finish strong, every step brings you closer to something bigger — proof that you can push past comfort and find strength in rhythm.

The finish line isn’t just a time on the clock. It’s a story you write with your legs, your lungs, and your will.

What was going through your mind in your last mile?

Feels cool at first but warms up fast.

🩳 Shorts
👕 Short- or long-sleeve moisture-wicking top (light material)

40–50°F (4–10°C)

🩳 Shorts, capris or light tights
👕 Long-sleeve tech shirt or thin base layer with tank underneath as you warm up.

20–30°F (-6– -1°C)

👖 Fleece-lined tights or double layers
👕 Thermal base layer + mid layer +
windproof jacket
🧤 Thermal gloves (or add hand warmers to your glove)
🧢 Beanie, neck gaiter or Buff

🏃‍♀️ Pro Tips

Dress for 15–20°F warmer than it actually is — you’ll heat up once you start moving.

Layer, don’t bulk: Choose thin, moisture-wicking layers that trap heat but allow sweat to evaporate.

Avoid cotton: It holds moisture and makes you cold.

Reflective gear: Shorter daylight hours mean more dark runs. Invest in a viable running vest 👇 https://www.noxgear.com/ref/JerrysGirlRuns/

Zippered layers give you ventilation control mid-run.
