My second 5K and I absolutely surprised myself.

It’s so fun realizing how everything I’ve been doing has, in fact, been paying off. Even when sometimes I feel like I’m just throwing things together. 🧍🏾‍♀️

Shaved 2 minutes off my last 5K time with only 3 weeks in between… Still sounds super crazy to me. 🫪

Split breakdown!

🏃🏾‍♀️

59th overall 5k finisher and 13th out of the women🥳

Crossing the finish line😂

If you don’t post the Strava did it even happen?!?!

Went to Krispy Kreme for a lil post race treat and they gave me the donut for free. Definitely made the day even sweeter

Over the weekend I ran my first official 5k in a very long time and I got a lil PR (kinda)🕺🏾

Officially my time was 28:15, but according to Strava, I completed the 3.1 mi in 27:32 sooooo you know what time I’m going with 😂

Another impromptu thing I randomly decided to do and my friends went along with. Can’t wait to run it back in a few weeks with the District 19 5k on October 4th! 🏃🏾‍♀️ taken in Anacostia Park by @lisaenmotion

Got my hands on the Nike Vomero Plus “Cow Print” running shoes😍

Posted these on my story a few days ago, but here’s a closer look. I mainly got these because I thought they were cute, but I also have yet to hear bad things about this shoe, so I guess it’s a win/win. My fav detail is the faux pony hair on the Nike swish.

Can’t wait to try them out! 🏃🏾‍♀️

HYROX DC! 💕🤩🏋🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏅

5 days later and I can finally walk normally again 😂 I don’t even know what to say other than this was so much fun. I’m so competitive at heart, and doing this was genuinely so invigorating for me. From saying I’d “never do all that” and calling my friends insane to now telling Pri we need to start picking out outfits for our next one 😂

S/o to @kapricesunnn for talking me into doing this fr, I couldn’t have asked for a better partner. She literally makes EVERYTHING fun. Life’s so enjoyable when you have a friend that’s down to do literally anything with you, and that’s Pri for me. We could be coaching today, on the moon 30 minutes later, and still make it out to get in the club for free 😂 The side quest queens who know how to handle business! 🩷

Also thank you to everyone who showed up to watch us in the middle of the day on a Thursday! I know a lot of people don’t need much of an excuse to skip work (lol), but I’m so grateful. I was genuinely so happy seeing all the familiar faces 🥹

To the first of many! 🕺🏾

what’s a couple months of training (5 of them things, to be exact) compared to 1 hour and 19 minutes of hard work? NOTHING.

so proud of @nonchalisa and I! no time goals, just vibes… and somehow a SUB 1:20!!!

LET’S DO IT AGAIN SOON, PLS 💞

Growing up, I always heard the saying “the sky is the limit.” A few days ago, I randomly came across a grad post, and the first comment I saw was the grad’s mom reminding them that the sky is NOT their limit. She’s so real for that because that way of saying it is certainly good and took lmao I absolutely won’t be saying it the “regular” way anymore.

So yesterday this happened… I made myself eat my words and my friends didn’t hesitate to remind me 😂

A few months ago, not only was I saying I’d never do a Hyrox, I was also saying I’d probably never run for more than 30 minutes… and even 30 was pushing it. Now here we are, less than 2 weeks out from my first Hyrox, and I ran for over an hour just cause 🌚

The initial plan was to run 5 miles, but when I realized a 10K was 6.2, I decided to give it a shot because literally why not.

Sometimes all it takes is knowing you can do it.

About a week and a half ago I had the absolute pleasure of attending the first @goodbaudi_ pop up experience. Not only did I get to support one of my friends, but I got to try something new to me. ✨

For my first Mat Pilates experience, this certainly did not disappoint. From the music, to the vibes, and the lovely instructor @edenangelina, I can say I genuinely enjoyed myself. It was a little challenging, but as a self proclaimed fitness girlie, definitely well worth it.

And of course, what better way to close out than with caramelized plantain matcha by @folake.co and a few mimosas during the post Pilates mixer. Got the chance to mix and mingle with new as well as familiar faces, which was truly such a joy.

Congrats again @baudibabe_ for a successful (sold out!) event. Thank you for allowing me to experience this and be a tiny part of helping you bring the vision to life. You’re amazing and we appreciate you for creating a space for all the good baudi gyals. Cheers to you and to many many more my friend🥂💚 by @lisaenmotion

Here’s a glimpse at my first week of “training” after telling people that I’m doing the next DC HYROX 🧍🏾‍♀️

Sooooooo about a month and a half ago I “broke my butt” 🧍🏾‍♀️ lmao (aka hurt my tailbone).

As someone who used to think she was injury prone and would attempt to push through everything, I did the responsible thing this time. I rested a bit and then eased back in as the weeks went on.

There were plenty of moments where it felt good enough to go harder, but I chose to listen to my body instead of my ego.

Yesterday, for the first time in a while (even outside of being injured), I worked up to 185 on trap bar deadlifts.

Not gonna yie, I was a little nervous about how my tailbone would feel today… but so far, no pain. 🕺🏾 As I rebuild trust with my body, this is your reminder that slowing down doesn’t mean falling behind ✨ taken in Washington D. C. by @lisaenmotion
