Holding my kitties hand while he was purring but being sedated and euthanized because his kidneys stopped working is probably one of the worst things I've ever had to experience. It happened so quickly, he was gone within seconds. Just like that he was no longer my sweet little fur baby. I had to stare at him laying there lifeless for a very long time before I accepted he was gone. 14 years with this guy, the brother to my other fur buddy and my bestest cuddle bug. I will love you forever and I'm so sorry that this happened and that there wasn't anything else I could do. Goodbye my sweet friend. Hyde Dillon, 2005-2019

I just signed up for something crazy but just like all crazy things, it's much better to do it with friends! @thecoastalchallengeca is a 6 day stage race that roughly adds up to 146 miles and 34,000 feet of elevation gain and it all happens in beautiful Costa Rica. Each day you camp, wake up, run the set distance for the day in the rainforest and come back to a set up camp with food to replenish yourself for the next day to do it all over again. It will be the hardest thing Ive ever attempted and hopefully it will be successful. What I'm most excited about is that my friends @krittylevorson and @crazy_mother_runners will be along for the ride with me and we can encourage each other every day to just get to the start line and keep moving. Then we can relax and complain about all of our ailments together at camp in the evening 😂. Right now there are approximately 10 North American spots left for the 2020 race in February and 60% of the field are women, how freaking rad is that?! We would love to see some more friends throughout the 6 days so my friend @crazy_mother_runners and I are offering up some incentive. If you choose to register for any of the remaining spots left, I will provide a free personalized running training plan for the race for you and Sherry will provide a free strength training plan to keep you injury free and fit for the task at hand! All you have to do is after you register, screen shot both of us your confirmation and we will get you your plans to crush the race! It's a nerve-wracking but very exciting adventure and I hope some of you will want to come join! (There is also a shorter distance available of 96 miles over the 6 days). #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay

Solo road tripping for 20 hours while being forced to go 30 mph on icy highways leaves you a lot of time to reflect and contemplate. Usually I do that in an overthinking sort of way, and I still did some of that 😂 but I also tried to think on things that have been bothering me and how I can change the weight of those things. Here's what I came up with. 1.) It's ok to not respond to people, especially if they are crossing boundaries or making you uncomfortable 2.) When you've learned someone's personality fully and it clashes with yours, it's ok to just let all those things go that are frustrating you and not take it on and make it personal 3.) You can get through anything that is temporary and there are way bigger problems in this world that people face that don't have ends in sight 4.) It's ok to cancel plans if they end up not being what is healthy for you anymore. I keep telling myself I need to care less, and I don't think that is the solution. I should definitely still care, but I just need to factor myself into that equation as well. #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay 📷:@runlongrun

You know what's cool about trail running? You can show up to a random trailhead on your drive back to Colorado and someone else you never met can be there and you can quickly realize that you're both out of towners trying to run up a steep ass mountain, so then you just do it together! Tagged a peak, made a friend and detoured myself into an early stop from driving. That's going to hurt tomorrow! #worthit #SalomonSquad #TimeToPlay 📷: My new Oregon friend Laura

I'm in my hometown with my fam, chilling, catching up and eating yummy foods but my anxiety has been through the roof today. I've been through a lot of tests of character in my life and I always come out the other end much better for it, but honestly I am pretty tired right now of growing. It actually sounds really nice to just be able to sit there, status quo for a little bit and maybe have other people bring me stuff and fan me and ask me what it is that maybe I need to feel comfortable in life 😂. Well, my sisters have pretty much been doing that for me while I'm here but that can only last for so long ♥️. Going to need some meditation, relaxation and anxiety reducing tips for the next few months, so if you have em...hit me. #SalomonRunning #TimeToPlay 📷: @obnoxioushugger

Halfway through my run today I heard a loud crunch, turned around, and there was a giant ass moose about 20 feet behind me. I've always said I'd much rather see a bear than a moose. Moose are unpredictable (but beautiful). I basically talked at it like an idiot as I ran away (with the idea to zig zag if needed) and it literally gave zero shits about me and just sauntered off. Heart rate was pretty high for a few moments after that, good thing I had all these views to make it worth it 😁. #SalomonSquad ##TimeToPlay
