Finally back to hitting some weights 💪
.

Between races and battling an inflamed shoulder. I’ve taken some time off lifting, particularly upper body. Seems like my right arm goes through phases of inflammation usually at my shoulder related to overtraining, stiff and tight neck muscles. I’m happy to be working it again in addition to getting chiropractic adjustments and massages.

What’s Next? I know people wonder what my next goals are. TRIATHLON! Today I signed up for my A race, Chisago Lakes Half Ironman. I will become a half Ironman on 7/31/2022. If you remember this past July I did not finish (DNF) in the first 10 minutes of the swim. This learning experience sent me even deeper into committing to and finishing a full Ironman in the future. Next year will be filled with multiple Tris to assess and gauge my readiness for that goal.

I AM OFFICIALLY AN ULTRA RUNNER

Thank you @wildduluthraces for such a great event yesterday. It was the perfect day to run the Superior Hiking Trail. It’s events like this that keep me here in Duluth and believe that this city is one of the best places in the world to be. Through crunching on leaves, stumbling 31 miles through tough terrain, to beautiful views and fighting the body’s pain signals that’s how I like my Saturday’s to be. I’ve come so far as a runner from my first 10k in 2017 and never know the next place it will take me 🏃

It was on this day 2 years ago @jackiedaub @sheil

It was on this day 2 years ago @jackiedaub @sheilalsullivan and I hiked through a pretty decent snowfall. The hike started out with a light snow and ended with a small blizzard. By the finish we were pretty cold and wet but it made for an epic accomplishment. It’s this memory that makes me grateful for each day from here out without snowfall until it does happen. When we do get snow I will be ready to dial back the speed of driving, the outdoor runs and shorts!

Confidence
.
.
On my transformation post there were a few comments about my shorts getting shorter. Funny story, that in 2011 I did cross country for one year. I’d never worn short shorts and hated them. My legs have always been an area I held body fat so I was somewhat self conscious and I also notoriously skipped working them. It wasn’t until 2018 where I decided to take leg day seriously that I started to get into them. With consistency, quality and persistence being the top 3 things I learned with 10 years of exercise the next would be confidence. I believe that comes by small achievements that exercise provides while also providing a safe environment to fail, in my opinion both things help build confidence. Here’s to short shorts, flexing and walking with your chest held high, thank you fitness 💪🏃

I love this picture not only because this sea lion

I love this picture not only because this sea lion nailed an upward dog pose but also it’s ability to block out the distractions. For some context, this was taken right after people continuously got as close as possible to take selfies (I was close but maintained a good 10 feet). What I found fascinating was that the sea lion kept it’s eyes closed only taking a peek when it could feel it’s personal space being intruded. Eventually it did move but up until that moment it seemed to be peaceful and focused in an environment filled with so many distractions. That moment stuck with me and made me realize how important it is to understand when I feel distracted plus how to step back from those things to gain focus 🦭
