All the training was for this moment 💪🏾🔥
Completed my first HYROX doubles and I couldn’t be more proud. This was BY FAR the hardest thing I’ve ever done and I pushed through every second of it.

I randomly texted @messy.bun.runner like “you wanna do HYROX?” and after a strong “hell no” 😂 she locked in with me and I couldn’t have picked a better partner. You showed UP and showed out and I’m so proud of you 💯 you’re much stronger than you think 🐺

This competition tested me mentally in ways I didn’t expect… but it also showed me exactly what I’m capable of. Now it’s back to the grind! Dallas Hyrox in November, this time solo but I’m built for this 😈. #houstonhyrox #Hyrox #mentalstrength #houstonfitness #hyroxworld taken in George R. Brown Convention Center by @mizztoya_

METAL MONDAY 🥇🏃🏽‍♀️🔥

And just like that… IM A HALF MARATHONER. 🏅

This past weekend in D.C. was nothing short of AMAZING. 🇺🇸❤️

My first half marathon
A knee that eventually said, “Girl… we need to talk.” 😂
Crowds screaming. Running in the RAIN
Cheer teams showing up.
People celebrating complete strangers like they’d known them forever.

And somewhere between the rain, the miles, the pain, the cheers, and that finish line… I realized just how far I’ve come.

2:33:01. ⏱️
Did I have moments where my body told me to give up? Absolutely.
Did I? HELL NO.

I finished my FIRST HALF MARATHON. 🥹🏅

And that’s the part I’m choosing to celebrate. Choosing to celebrate ME

D.C. reminded me that running isn’t just about pace. It’s about perseverance. It’s about showing up when it’s uncomfortable. It’s about trusting the work you’ve put in. It’s about finding another gear when your body is begging you to quit.

And having my people there made it even more special. ❤️🐺

I earned this one.

Next half: LET’S WORK

Because now that I know I can do 13.1…

I want to see what I can REALLY do. 🏃🏽‍♀️💨

☀️🏁 SUMMER DASH SERIES: COMPLETE! 🏁☀️

Training in the Houston summer is NOT for the weak! 🥵☀️ But I showed up, put in the work, and got it DONE!

And better yet… PR’ing in the summer?! That’s what hard work, consistency, and dedication look like. 💪🏾🔥

Now that the Summer Dash Series is officially complete, it’s time for a NEW CHAPTER. 📖✨

⏳ 41 DAYS until my FIRST HALF MARATHON! 🏃🏾‍♀️🏅

This isn’t just something I do… THIS IS A LIFESTYLE.

The summer was just the warm-up. 👀
Can you imagine what the fall & winter are about to bring?! 🍂❄️

NEW PR 28:27 🫶🏾

More miles.
More growth.
More discipline.
And of course… MORE PRs! 🏆🔥

WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED. 🐺💨

Medal Monday 🏅
This medal means a little more than the others.

This race exceeded every expectation I had for myself. I finally broke into the sub-30 club with a 28:27, taking almost 2 minutes off my previous PR. To say I’m proud would be an understatement. A few months ago, this time felt so far out of reach, and now it’s my reality.

Every painful mile. Every early morning. Every strength session. Even the rest days I fought myself to take… it all mattered. Every single piece of the process led me here.

To top it off, I finished Top 20 in my age group out of 381 women. 🎉 That’s something I never imagined I’d be celebrating, but it reminds me that the work you put in when no one is watching always shows up when it matters most.

This race lit a fire in me. It reminded me that my limits are often just things I’ve convinced myself of. When you stay consistent, trust the process, and refuse to quit, you’re capable of so much more than you think.

A huge thank you to my RYP family @runyourpace___ 🐺 I truly couldn’t do this without you all. Yall keep me grounded when my mind starts doubting me, remind me to recover when I want to overdo it, and constantly push me to become a stronger runner and person. Having people who believe in you, even when you’re struggling to believe in yourself is priceless.

The journey is far from over. This is just another reminder that hard work pays off, and I’m nowhere near finished.
Run Your Pace. Trust the process. Keep showing up. 🖤💛
