2nd Female at yesterday morning’s 5K!

This was my 41st race of 2026 and interestingly enough, there were exactly 41 females in this race. Finishing 2nd isn’t as exciting in these smaller local races, but it’s still in the top 5% of women so I do (choose) to feel proud of myself for it. It’s been awhile since I ran a race with a sub 8:45 pace. 

41 races in 41 weeks. 41 down and 11 to go- to hit my goal of 52 races in 52 weeks. 

Still having so much fun with this! 

Goals are good! They keep us focused.

Thanks @byronwmoore for the great photos and @hightideruns for another fun race.

Started this with a half marathon in Malibu in November that I almost talked myself out of. Ending this year with a PR in the marathon. 700+ miles. 130+ runs. 80+ hours of running in less than a calendar year. I’d never ran over 7 miles before & here I am. Well, here we are. I couldn’t do this without my support system. Specifically @flynn.golf.lab. The amount of calls, encouragement & everything else. My friends who show up to races. My family. My everything. Anyway, here’s to another 700+ miles. God I love running 
Also big shout out to @hoka I love the Clifton 9’s I have hoarded them so I don’t have to buy new shoes

"BECOMING IS BETTER THAN BEING."

Carol Dweck taught me that. 

Carol said: “No matter what your ability is, EFFORT is what ignites that ability and turns it into accomplishment."

Carol’s book, Mindset, changed my life. 

Here’s a few quotes that tie well into her concepts of a GROWTH mindset: 

• Vincent van Gogh: "I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it."

• Thomas Edison: "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

• Angela Duckworth: "Without effort, your talent is nothing more than your unmet potential."

• Winston Churchill: "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." 

Without learning (and then EMBRACING!) these concepts that helped me realize it’s OK to still be a work in progress, I would never (EVER) have BECOME a runner. 

One day, I wasn’t a runner at all. The next, I’d started the process of “becoming.” Gosh, this JOURNEY has been SO much important than any DESTINATION. 

Progress is so much more important than perfection. I love that I’m still a work in progress today, and that maybe the work will NEVER be done. 

Sunday was yet another step towards my becoming. It marked my 38th race in the last 38 weeks and this 10K was a fun one.

Not sure how @byronwmoore always gets the perfect shot at @hightideruns - but he does!
