Not new to this. TRUE to this.

The miles, the early mornings, the discipline, the days when it ain’t easy but you get it done anyway. This running thing is part of who I am.

I'm not chasing anybody else’s journey. I’m too busy living mine. And we’re just getting started!

Today is World Mental Health Day.

I don’t talk about it all the time, but mental health is personal to me. Living with anxiety isn’t always easy, and some days, the biggest battle is the one nobody else can see.

Running has become one of the ways I work through it. The miles give me space to breathe, clear my head, and find a little peace in a world that can feel overwhelming. But I’ve also learned that taking care of yourself goes beyond lacing up your shoes and hitting the pavement.

Some days, strength looks like showing up. Other days, it looks like slowing down, setting boundaries, asking for help, or simply admitting that you’re not okay.

At 52, I’m learning that taking care of my mental health isn’t a weakness, and I don’t owe anybody a version of me that has it all figured out.

So today, check on your people. Give yourself some grace. And remember, you can be strong, show up for others, and still need someone to show up for you.

We’re all fighting battles people know nothing about. Be kind to yourself and to each other.

Nothing like getting in some miles with the Brothers of @blackmenrunsd for a good cause.

This morning was about more than running. We showed up for the ZERO Prostate Cancer Run/Walk to celebrate the survivors, honor the brothers and loved ones we’ve lost, and support the fight against prostate cancer.

Good miles, good fellowship, and giving back to the community. That’s what it’s all about. We run together, we show up for each other, and we make a difference beyond the miles.

Much love to the brothers for showing up and being part of something bigger than ourselves.

The confidence to stand tall, stay grounded, and be unbothered while the world does what it does. No competing. No explaining. No getting caught up in everybody else's noise. Just being comfortable in your own space and moving at your own pace.

That kind of peace? That kind of confidence? CHASE THAT. taken in Crown Point Park by @runjefferyrun

Looking back. Damn, what a difference a year can make.

A lot can change in 12 months. The way you see yourself. The people around you. The things you’re willing to accept. The things you finally decide to go after.

I’m not the same person I was a year ago and honestly, I’m grateful for that.

Still growing. Still figuring it out. Still becoming.

But when I look back, I can definitely say, look at the difference a year makes.
