How in the world was this only 3 years ago??? It feels like two or three times as long.

Grandmas was my first race I ever signed up for, my first half marathon. So much has happened since then. I’ve completed 7 full marathons throughout 4 different states and countless other half marathons, 10k’s, and 5k’s. It’s been an amazing experience.

I recently read a quote that pretty much sums it up. “If you want to run, run a mile. If you want to change your life, run a marathon.” I’m ready to head back to Duluth and run Grandmas again. I was recently asked to run Big Sur as well, in 2024. And, I’m eager to run my first Ultra race. Very excited to see what the next 3 years brings!!

Goodbye Dunlap lacrosse season 2022. See ya next year for more fun! Logan will continue on playing for True lacrosse this summer and I’m planning on having a girls clinic to end the summer. The season may be over for playing, but there’s never-ending learning, planning and promoting for the years ahead to continue to grow CILAX!

Happy EMS week to my fellow providers! These are just a few stories of calls I still think about today.

I probably wasn't even of legal drinking age and I don't think the patient was either. A cold, rainy, but green morning, just like today. He went into the park and shot himself in the head. He lay there in all black. All I saw was his hands that were so pale, white, glass-like, and it reminded me of a porcelain doll. It didn't look real. Was it real? That's what enters my memory often, especially when I'm in the same scenery setting.

Then there's the child less than a year old who's heart and breathing stopped in the middle of the night. With another responder rushing the child into the back of our ambulance I ventilated his lungs while Nick performed chest compressions (yes, we worked many calls together). We didn't have kids at the time. I did have a nephew around the same age though and he's all I could think of. It took everything I had to not become physically sick in the ambulance and even at the hospital after we transferred care. Mind over matter and I focused hard on my duties and nothing more. Remove the emotional aspect or you won't last.

There was that one morning I ran into a large lifeless body hanging in the hallway, purple skin and all. Happy Easter! I can't describe the face because remember, I don't subject myself to details that aren't necessary. Maybe that's why my mentality is still intact.. well sorta!

It probably wasn't the smartest idea in the middle of the night scooping up that gunshot victim in a dark alley all alone (without police) and the shooter on the loose, but hey we're still here to talk about it! Or the time those teenagers were playing Russian roulette and yup, you guessed it, that bullet really did shoot him in the head. When the k9 wasn't as lucky as the officer involved in that crash with a drunk driver......

This is just a little sliver, a tiny percentage or what so many others experience on a regular basis and something so many have lasting issues from. Thank your EMS workers this week! We really can do more than drive a big box.

Yesterday’s Flying 🐷 Marathon official time: 4:51:19. Not my fastest, but a great, solid run. The orange slices, freeze pops, water showers, ice, and cool towels were awesome! I passed on the candy, beer, and bacon during the race. 60/30 intervals did the trick.

My headphones died around mile 22, but I was mentally and physically capable to carry on strong. Luckily my phone held out because without those intervals I really would have gone downhill. After the race it was sunny and 73° so I sat down and enjoyed my beer and the warm breeze by the river for a bit before I headed home. This was my 7th marathon, but first Flying Pig. Thanks for the memories Lizards!!

Also, the crowd cheering was amazing, especially through a few communities. I’d love to live somewhere that does that, someday.

During my run I used:

Yo, it’s been one year since I became a trainer! Only 1. I’m still a baby. I was placed by NASM at Anytime Fitness in Peoria where I trained a client over the summer. That led to a formal job offer. At about the same time I began training young athletes at 360 Speed & Performance. Plus, I’m always there for my Beachbody ladies!

I’m still trying to figure out what I want to specialize in as there are just so many things to choose from, but until then I’ll still be doing my thing and gaining experience as often as I can. The passion lives on for both fitness and nutrition and I love learning about them. It’s a win/win! So, if you need some assistance in these areas, let me know and I’ll hook ya up!❤️

Tomorrow we ship out to Punta Cana for a 5 night stay alongside fellow friends and role models. As a Beachbody coach I earned this trip. I’m beyond proud to have been given this opportunity. We will be able to enjoy an all-inclusive and workout everyday with our super trainers (I’m really excited about that because I’m a nerd).

I never imagined I’d be invited to a trip like this, but with the help of my teammates, here I am. I will continue to stay grounded and be the best coach I can be to all of you.✌🏼

I’m excited to announce I’ll be part of the Simple Hydration Run Team in 2022!

When I first started running, just a few years ago, I always used a hydration pack past 6 miles. Over time I wanted to free my back from the pack and turned to the simple hydration bottle. There are different sizes and it tucks into a running belt, compression short, or even the back straps of sports bra, whatever is comfortable for the athlete. I began wearing mine on my runs with Bear as it fits perfectly in the Spindrift belt that holds his leash. I completed all 48.6 miles of the D***y challenge with it as well.

As I learn more about each of my new teammates it’s clear how many amazing people are out there! Seriously, my life seems so boring compared to the others, but I’m honored to be on the team and celebrate each other along the way!🎉

“When you pull on that jersey, you represent yourself and your teammates, and the name on the front is a hell of a lot more important than the one on the back.” —Herb Brooks

Over the weekend I completed the Walt Disney World D***y Challenge. If you’re unfamiliar, this is 4 races over 4 days, totaling 48.6 miles. A 5k (3.1 miles), 10k (6.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles), and a full marathon (26.2 miles). My average pace for all races was 15 minutes/mile. If you’re saying to yourself..that’s not very fast..I can do that..the answer is YES, yes you can do it!

The goal of the weekend had nothing to do with pace, but to run with my fellow BOGP (Be Our Guest Podcast) Lizards. Each day I ran with someone new. Someone I had never met before. Together we are part of the best running group out there (I’m convinced)! We are family! We had gatherings, explored the parks, had drinks, and meals together. It was, dare I say, “magical.”

My hydration and nutrition were on point and because I wasn’t running at a crazy fast pace my body felt really good the entire time. Even after all 48.6 miles. The last few miles we each bought a beer in Epcot and walked to the finish line. It. Was. Delicious. And so well deserved by all.

I loved running in the sea of Lizard green (even though on marathon day I decided to support my husband and his fellow firefighters by wearing their shirt). I’m proud to be a Lizard, wear the colors and the name, and can’t wait until our next race together, whenever that may be.💚🦎💚

“I am brave, I am bruised. I am who I’m meant to be, this is me. Look out ‘cause here I come. And I’m marching on to the beat I drum. I’m not scared to be seen. I make no apologies, this is me.” I love the lyrics in this song performed by @kealasettle We must find strength and beauty in what makes us different. This picture shows the same strong, independent, fierce, passionate, natural, and REAL rode model I strive to be, but through two different perspectives. YES, I have rolls, wrinkles, and “tiger stripes.” YES, I am proud of them and YES I have earned them! “Nothing looks as good as confidence feels.” @shaunt Love your skin. Love yourself. Have no shame. Trust and believe. YOU are worth it! Body type: myself.

I’m very passionate about health and fitness. I’ve lost over 60 pounds (from when I was at my heaviest), and then another 40 pounds 2 times over again--thanks to my 4 kids and battling pregnancy and weight gain! Let me help you achieve your goals! This can be done all within the comfort of your own home and with me personally coaching you day by day. We’re not going to wish for it. We’re going to work for it. The only person you have to be better than is the one you were yesterday. Your health is a journey, not a destination. I'm here to help!
