Only because real news 📰 drops on Tuesdays…

Houston— you were and still are my Pink Pony Club 💕🫶🏼 leaving Iowa to chase the dream of “teacher” in Houston never realizing that one day @__meganthemermaid would be down to sign up for our first half marathon (later to get cancelled because of a hurricane 🌀) and then we ended up signing up for a whole marathon and half marathon 10 years ago! Instead of just wearing one hat in my life I showed up for myself in more ways than one and I’m completely grateful 🥹 for that and the ability to inspire others through my dedication towards my goals. This weekend wasn’t about time— it was about HEART ♥️ I know I’ve been faster before but it wasn’t that serious this weekend. This weekend was about so many things—coming back from my ankle sprain and running 🏃🏽‍♀️ without pain— which I successfully managed! It was remembering that running brings joy not just to me or to friends near or far but to those not here with us anymore. This weekend was about remembering the strength and confidence I created because of my dog Charlie that passed away and how before he was part of my life I really questioned if I could ever truly run long or short distances again. Because of Charlie I shattered all my doubt in the past year and that is a beautiful thing that I will never forget. I guess this is the life of a #RunHOUGirl 10 years strong 💪🏽 here’s to being #BravelikeCharlie ,Ryan, and Michael on Sunday!

Houston baby!

They say progress is necessary but it was hard to pull up to chain link around the graffiti building. It’s coming down this week which is on par for how Houston has grown and expanded over the years.

We celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Taipei-Houston @evaairus flight with so many special moments at the @houstonzoo 🐾✨
From a pangolin and bongo exchange to a stunning mural reveal by @gonzo247 and @bounce1029, symbolizing the strong connection between Houston and Taipei, our sister city for 64 years.
