ED awareness is so important to me because as a girl still actively in recovery from b*limia the world of GLP-1s and “skinny is ideal” is a hard place to be sometimes. But this month (and every single day really) is a reminder that
1. you don’t have to earn food. You need to eat to exist.
2. Exercise doesn’t have to be a punishment. It can be fun, it can be for joy, it can be for connection, and it can be something you also just don’t do every day!!! REST IS IMPORTANT TOO! Guess what? You actually perform better with adequate food and rest.
3. Your important moments like your wedding will still be beautiful and fun if you aren’t at a “goal weight.” You are already beautiful and so loved.

If you’re struggling with an ED know that I’m here for you and I get it. Every day is a new battle and some are better than others but it’s a lot easier to fight when you’re not on your own. #neda #edrecovery #disorderedeating #mentalhealth by @dakrunseverywhere

I’ve said it a thousand times—running saved my life. It took me from a very dark place to a place of joy, hope, and strength by reminding me that food doesn’t have to be my enemy. They’re running I learned how to manage and recover from my eating disorder, and I also learned how to better treat my anxiety and depression. And now I want to bring all of that to the @wmmajors through the @marathontours #WorldTour. I want to prove that nothing can stop you if you want something badly enough—certainly not an eating disorder or mental illness. So pick me, choose me, and you won’t be let down! #abbottworldmarathonmajors #marathonrunner #runtok #runner by @dakrunseverywhere

I may not physically or mentally feel my ✨ best ✨ but nothing is going to stop me from celebrating #9to5 day and @dollyparton at my favorite place @dollywood for the #rundollywood butterfly challenge! Depression is no match for cinnamon bread and sparkles taken in Dollywood by @dakrunseverywhere

Day three brought a monsoon and 13 brutal miles. If not for the girl squad I would not have made it past 5 honestly. Depression is a weird thing—it’s really easy sometimes to pretend it’s not there and move through life almost normally. Other days it makes it hard to breathe, open your eyes, get out of bed, do anything at all. But every day I remind myself it’s better to try then not to, even if it’s not pretty or I fail. So here’s to the friends who pick you up when you’re down, rainy day runs that make you feel just a tiny bit alive again, and to all of you who I’m so glad to have here! by @dakrunseverywhere

Honestly failing at @speedgoatmtnraces took the wind out of me. And then having to pull out of @rimtoriver was a second gut punch I wasn’t ready for. The depression and anxiety hit HARD—I failed at a race I put EVERYTHING into and now I’m pulling out of one I’ve been posting everywhere? I felt like a failure and I couldn’t even imagine running again. But my therapist reminded me that the journey is the point, not the races. The way running helps quiet the noise in my head is the reason I should be doing it—not medals, not PRs, not numbers on a scale. So here’s to day one of out running my depression, I hope you’ll come along!

Kind of addicted to climbing mountains. 2027 will be a year full of @utmbworldseries races including Chattanooga, @rothrockbyutmb and the @speedgoatmtnraces revenge tour #mountaingirls #ultramarathon by @dakrunseverywhere

It’s pretty chic to have a hobby that gives you both goals and a family 🩵

Me, surprised I somehow made it to over 1000 followers (and also up that first mountain at @speedgoatmtnraces 50k).

But in all seriousness I can’t believe over 1000 of you are here to join me on my journey as I fundraise my way through the Abbott @wmmajors; fall down mountains; preach about body positivity and mental health, try wild mocktails during training; and celebrate all of the humans around me who make life worth doing, including you. I love this community so much and I’m honored to be one of the mid runners you follow.

Now let’s go crush some runs together, ok?

We reached the top, looked around, and had the exact same thought…

“Y’all really do this for a living?”

Every ultramarathon humbles you differently. Speedgoat wasted absolutely no time. I wasn’t questioning my training. I was questioning every life decision that led me to that mountain. 😂🏔️

Have you ever started something and immediately wondered why you signed up?
