Comparison is the thief of joy.
Just be you..
Because no one does it better than you. Xo
Ramblings of a happy runner
Happy beautiful Saturday!
#runhappy
Running is this beautiful metaphor for life.
How it’s filled w/ love & heartbreak.
If we miss the lessons we miss the point.
There’s no giving up.
There isn’t just one path.
And we have to go at our own pace.
10 grateful miles on this gorgeous day. Happy Sunday!
#runhappy
Later is an excuse, not a reason.
Lace up those kicks, try something new, simplify your life, tell someone you love them, crush those goals. Life is happening right in front of you..
Happy Monday cuties! Sweeet 5k
#runhappy
Did a little thing this morning…
Never be afraid to step out of your comfort zone.
You can do hard things.
It’s mind over matter.
And that feeling as you cross the finish line. You did that. You made that happen.
And I’m here if you need more support! Xoxo
#runhappy
This is 47
The struggles have been hard. The lessons even harder.
But even thru it all, I never lost hope & I’ve never given up.
Sometimes I feel like I’m too sensitive for this world. But maybe what we need is more sensitivity. More love, more kindness to others and ourselves.
I’m sorry that I go away without explanation.
I keep my twitter family close to my heart. I hope you know that.
Sometimes I am quiet and spend less time on my phone.
Sending a little smile, a whole lotta love And all the Xoxoxo’s ♥️
Hi there my beautiful friends.
I’m going to leave this smile here. And say goodbye for now.
Twitter has given me this lovely outlet to share my thoughts, my love & my smile. And in return you’ve shown me so much love & kindness.
I am forever grateful.
All my love Xoxo ♥️
Maybe today you just need a face that's smiling at you.
That's telling you, you're doing a great job at this life thing.
That you are enough.
And no matter what today brings... tomorrow will be better.
This smile is for you. ♥️
10 miles of my happy place.
#runhappy
“Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on your troubles will be out of sight...”
Merry Christmas my sweet angels. Sending all my love & peace your way Xo. ♥️🎄🎅🏼
Smiles were meant to be shared. Between family, friends, & strangers.
It’s this unspoken language that makes hearts happy, takes away fears & starts conversations.
You never know who needs it. Xo ♥️
5 Happy Friday miles!
#runhappy
We make time for the things that are important to us. And over the past 2 months I realized how important it is to keep sharing love, support & kindness.
My heart is full. And I believe it’s
a missed opportunity to have love & not share it. Xo♥️
All my love,
#runhappy
Everything in life is a choice.
We choose happiness, we choose to not give up. We choose life.
This run is for anyone coping with an illness, w/ a broken heart, PTSD, or struggling with life.
You’ve got this. One day at a time. ♥️
6 mile Sunday and all my love.
#runhappy
There are times on my run my legs feel light as air
other times they feel the weight from the miles
Like life I accept both
When life feels effortless, I am thankful.
When I feel the weight in my world I know it's temporary.
The sun always returns ♥️
10 Sunday miles.
#runhappy
Hi there my little lovies.
I just wanted to leave a smile and say thank you for all the love sent my way. I am so grateful for all the friendships I’ve made here.
I’m so sorry for my absence, I’m focusing on my family.
Stay well sweet angels ♥️
All my love Xoxo
It’s so important to keep your words positive.
Your body will stop way before your head and heart do.
You are fearless, filled with strength and determined. Go get it.♥️
10 miles of my happy place. And so grateful for this beautiful day. Xoxo

“Spread love wherever you go.
Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.”
Challenge accepted.

Happy Sunday!
#runhappy
It’s a privilege to lace up and run.
Something I don’t take for granted.
What we can do, someone might wish they could.
And on a day like today.. if I didn’t run…. I’d be doing it all wrong!
Happy beautiful Saturday! ♥️
Go get that run, bike, walk or swim on!
#runhappy
This life is not a dress rehearsal
Do things that make you happy
Do them for others
Forgive yourself, forgive others
Don’t waste time on things that take away your peace
Be you
Regret is a waste of time
Truly living & loving is not ♥️
6 fall filled miles 🍂Xoxo

A year ago today we lost my Mom.
I’m smiling because that’s how she would want to see me. Love and loss is part of life.
But love is not lost. ♥️
Sending love and smiles to anyone who needs it. Happy beautiful Thursday

Why do I run?
Because I feel alive out there.
Because no matter what is happening in my world, Running restores my peace of mind.
And Helps me be the best version of me for all the people in my life. ♥️

The beauty of running is, it always gives us back more.
Some days we need strength.
And it gives it to us.
Some days we need peace, or quiet, or just to find our happy.
It is such a gift. I always find what I’m looking for. ♥️
8 grateful Sunday miles.
#runhappy
Of course I’m smiling.
It’s a beautiful day.

I’m still here and thank you little darlings for checking on me.
Sometimes I have to shut down the sm to be more present in my life.
All my love. And all the xo’s.
Have the most wonderful weekend sweet friends.♥️
As hard as it’s been I wouldn’t change anything about this time w/ my kids.
To not take advantage of our time together to help them feel heard & most of all loved would’ve been a lesson missed.
Time we can not get back, but love surpasses time♥️
All my love & miles
#runhappy
Injury has taught me to fight back.
Maybe I won’t be able to run long or fast again. And learning to accept what my body will give me isn’t easy.
I am truly grateful for each and every run.
And that’s why you always see me smiling! 😊 4 miles O’smiles.
#runhappy
#runwithasmile
Because

It teaches me patience..
It restores this happiness in my heart that I can’t keep to myself..
And it keeps me the smiley girl that I am 😊

I’m so sorry you guys .
I used to be better at kids, running, work and twitter. This was just a really busy week.
I hope you are all well and your hearts are happy.

#runhappy
Just a little thought as I leave for work today…
Let’s make each other better..
By lifting one another up.
It does wonders for all our hearts.
Catch you later little angels Xo♥️
I’ve always felt like if you lost someone, time should stop. But it doesn’t and life keeps moving along.
My beautiful grandmother passed away this morning. And time has stopped for me.
Love your people. Hold them tight.
Don’t waste moments. We can never get them back. ♥️
Dear Diary,
It’s day 3.. home alone with 2 kids.
Workout done...
Mutiny has begun.
May have lost my mind..
Wait.. found Dubsmash...
No.. definitely, Send for help! 😉
A little wink and a smile for you today. And wishes for a wonderful week. I hope you breathe in peace and let go of anything that isn’t meant for you to carry. All my love. ♥️ 6 mile Sunday.
#runhappy
I consider myself lucky that I have the privilege to lace up and run.
It’s a gift that I do not take for granted. ♥️

Happy beautiful day lovies. Go get it!
Off into the cold world in a second..
But first your evening reminder..
You’re doing great at this thing called life…
And when you think you don’t have it all together.. you do. This face wouldn’t lie to you.
Happy day, happy hearts and of course all the xo’s! ♥️
Even when you think you're giving so little..
To the person receiving it, it could be exactly what they need.
Kind words can make the loneliest feel loved.
Sometimes all people need, is to feel they belong, that you see them & most of all hear them. ♥️ Happy Sunday!
#runhappy
Just a girl.
That loves to run.
And if you don't mind I'll share a little smile.
When you smile back it fills my heart.
Happy beautiful Sunday little loves.♥️

There are a lot of things I am not.
The one thing I know I am...
Is a runner.
It's not our special shoes, or how fast we run that makes us runners.
It's our heart. And how much we put into each & every run. Because we love it so much. Carpe Runem!
All the miles & smiles
#runhappy
Absolutely loving my Sunday long runs.
Each mile teaches me patience, brings me peace & leaves me w/ my smile firmly placed.
I’ll take this into my busy week so I can be the best for all my people.
Love and light my sweet friends.♥️
10 humid beautiful fall miles 🍁🍂
The beauty of running isn’t just a strong body.
It’s nurturing a strong mind to believe in yourself. You can do hard things.
It’s the words we tell ourselves. You are always stronger than you think. ♥️
One breath, one step, one mile at a time.
10 miles of my peace
#runhappy

“Every runner has a reason.”
I think it changes for me..
Mostly it’s this feeling of being free. Out there in nature. And then 2nd and no less important is feeling strong. Mentally, physically♥️
What’s your reason?
5 wonderful Friday miles. Happy day little loves xo
