    NYC Marathon, the beginning.

    This race was the most epic of all epicness!!! Is that even a word…it will be for now.. The moment came, the day we were leaving for New York. I was still packing last minute because I had moved just days before and I couldn’t find anything! But I made sure that my race day…

  • The night before the race

    It has been an incredible experience! From the minute we got on the plane, to this moment right now. I just LOVE everything about New York. The lights, the sound, the people, it’s all amazing. I’ve been doing lots of thing with ASICS and I can’t be more grateful. It has been full of fun.…

  • Packing my ASICS

    Packing my ASICS

    Here we are! Days away from the New York City marathon! Months and months of training, and overcoming new obstacles hasn’t been the easiest of roads. But I have managed to stay positive, stay focused, and continue to fight. I can not describe my level of excitement! I have worked REALLY hard to survive training,…

    You’ve got questions, we’ll give you answers!

    So there are a few things I wanted to share with you all….first, you already know I am running the NYC marathon right? Did you know that I am also on teamASICS for the race as well?!?! I doubt that you have missed any of my posts on my social media 😉 Anyhow, we have…

  • A path with no obstacles, probably doesn’t lead anywhere.

    The training for my dream race continues! It has been a little tough at times but nothing I can’t overcome. The weather here in Orlando continues to interfere in my training. Now that I am well into the double digits, I much prefer to run outdoors. We dodged a rain filled tropical storm, and still…

  • 5 to the finish line

    If you aren’t following me across social media, you might have missed some HUGE news last night…I was invited to be a part of teamASICS for the New York City marathon! I think it is a pretty neat honor to be chosen as one of the 5 members of the team ASICS blogger series. I…

    “The best is yet to come..” -Frank Sinatra

    Training for the New York City Marathon continues. I am doing my best to head out onto the trails but it’s been difficult. Since the heat here has been in the crazy triple digits, I have no choice but to run indoors. As crazy as it sounds, because I have been living in FL almost…

    It’s just the beginning..

    Last week was the first week in a while that I stopped going to physical therapy. It seemed that each time I went, it was doing more harm than good. I am aware that I am very unique and simple, traditional forms of therapy won’t work. Unfortunately, after much discussion, it seemed best that I…

  • I can, I will.

    I can, I will.

    Since I last wrote, last week, a few things have changed. I was put on a strict medication routine that I wasn’t too happy about at first. The medicines make me drowsy and sleepy. So the first few days on the medicines all I did was sleep. Had trouble sleeping at night though because the…

  • Stronger I will be

    Stronger I will be

    I haven’t been writing much but here is why, and I hope to be back writing soon! I miss helping you all overcome injuries! As most of you know, I have been bed ridden for the past week and a half now. Long story short, after running my 8 training miles the day before mother’s…
