I feel different. ⁣ ⁣ I came back from Costa Rica with confidence. I had confidence before but this is...different. ⁣ ⁣ It seems weird, right? I didn't finish the race that I went there for, but I came back feeling energized, happy and excited. ⁣ ⁣ There is something bigger out there for me. I don't know exactly what it is yet, but I know it's there now and that's given me a feeling that I can't quite explain. ⁣ ⁣ And I love it. ⁣ ⁣ #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay #NewTrailChallenge 📷: @crazy_mother_runners

The sound of my feet bouncing off of rocks⁣ The rhythmic tune of my breath⁣ The pure joy when I hit my stride⁣ The inexplicable feeling when I finish a long day or cross a finish line⁣ The places I see⁣ The people I meet⁣ The limitless opportunities it gives me⁣ The way it opens my eyes⁣ The failures and the successes⁣ The dreams that become reality⁣ ⁣ Why do you run? #RunOnEmotion ⁣ @salomonrunning @salomon #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay #SalomonSonic3

If we had just met, you probably wouldn't guess by looking at the way I eat food now that I had struggled with an eating disorder for 10 years of my life. I pile that shit on my plate with reckless abandon. It took a lot of patience, regression and forgiveness to get to the point where I could feed my body without feeling guilt..and it's still not perfect. I'll still get fleeting thoughts that I have to redirect. ⁣ ⁣ My friend screenshot this exact photo from my blog and texted me the other day with the words "I want to look as strong and athletic as you!!!". Those words meant so much to me. STRONG AND ATHLETIC. Ive gotten rid of every picture of the days I spent as a skeleton on my death bed and I use only the memories I have to remind myself why I work every day on being STRONG; not thin and NOT a certain meaningless number on the scale. ⁣ ⁣ If you're currently in recovery or still trying to dig your way out from an E.D., please know there is hope. You can retrain your brain to understand that you are worthy outside of your appearance and feel good in your skin. It won't be easy, but it will be worth it. ⁣ ⁣ #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay 📷: @crazy_mother_runners

This is Stage 6 of @thecoastalchallenge and that's my friend @krittylevorson who just got engaged behind me. ⁣ ⁣ It's actually pretty funny, @comtman84 messaged me a few months ago asking if I could get Kristy's flight info because he wanted to come surprise her in Costa Rica at the race. It didn't even cross my mind that it was probably to propose to her, that's how unromantic my brain is 😂. I was just like "Oh cool! How sweet of you! Here it is!". He never brought it up to me again so I wasn't even sure if he was still planning on coming or not...and to be honest, I kind of forgot about it once we were immersed into the fiery pits of racing. ⁣ ⁣ Both Kristy and I were knocked out earlier than we expected, me on Day 2 and her on Day 3...Nate's plans involved Day 5's route ....silly Nate, don't you know that anything can happen in a 6 day stage race? 😛 ⁣ ⁣ This is where I got to get involved! Kristy was feeling pretty down and defeated. We had been talking about running the last stage for fun but she wasn't so sure. Then Eduardo, one of our North American reps, approached me and told me the big secret. Nate was here, sleeping above us in air conditioning just pointing and laughing at us...jk jk jk he was here to propose to Kristy and I was needed to help her decide to run the next day so he could do it at the waterfall 4k in. Honestly, it wasn't that hard. All I had to do was tell her there was a waterfall super close and she was basically in...us trail runners are suckers for fucking waterfalls. ⁣ ⁣ It was pretty exciting to have this secret as I was running with her and we inched closer and closer to the destination. We turned the corner and it was finally there in front of us and I could see Nate fidgeting down below watching for her to descend. ⁣ ⁣ It was so awesome to hear her absolute surprise once she recognized him sitting there waiting for her and I breathed a sigh of relief I didn't have to keep the secret any longer. Thank goodness my dunce brain didnt figure this out months ago! 😂⁣ ⁣ Truly one of the coolest things that I got to be a small part of and witness. Congrats you two!!! 📷: @supermarks_adventures
