What are you going to wear???? I am still trying to piece together my outfit and I feel like I am running out of time!
LOL, I just got a bunch of Halloween themed shirts for the whole weekend. Boring, I know! I do have my costumes for W&D and Marathon weekend though!
Girl! I find this so hard to believe! You crush your runs and are always smiling! It makes me feel a tad better knowing I’m not the only one!
“Town” cracks me up! I grew up in a very small town in upstate NY and town was 30 mins away! Now living in northern VA when I need to go shopping I say I’m going into town! Lol
Love all your lake pics! I’m a lake girl too!
Thank you so much! I am definitely not always smiling during my runs though!
You are not alone at all, I think everyone has period of doubt even if they don't admit it.
LOL! Love that! I wouldn't have it any other way. When I lived in "town" during college, I did not enjoy it at all. We actually bought the house I grew up in on the lake from my parents about three years ago and it's the best decision we've ever made!
You may have self doubt, but know that you inspire a lot of people (me included!). I look forward to your instagram pics.
Are you dressing up for the Halloween party? You can always rent one of those scooters for your mom. There are days I wouldn’t mind one myself.
I lived in small towns all my life until we moved to FL. We lived in Boca Raton for 3 years and it was not for us. When we moved to central FL I wanted a small town feel, but still be close to “stuff”. I love where I live now. Country living yet 30 minutes from Orlando. Wish we could have been able to afford something on 5-10 acres though so I could have chickens.
Thank you so much, that really means a lot to me! Y'all all inspire me too. The running community is just amazing with the variety of backgrounds that everyone comes from and I am so glad I found it on here and Instagram!
We have Halloween themed shirts, but I am saving the costumes for my upcoming Disney runs. I've told my mom I'll get her a push wheelchair...she cannot be trusted with one that she drives. I am afraid she will take out a small child. LOL.
Now you live in the perfect spot...in the country, but with easy access to Disney. The people we got Barkley from had chickens and sent us home with a dozen fresh eggs when we bought him. My husband still talks about those eggs and how good they were!
PS - I get messages from LOTS of other runners saying they want to be like you. You inspire many more people than you know.
This comment leaves me speechless and close to tears. Never in a million years did I think I'd inspire anyone. I am happy to return the favor to so many people on these boards (you included) who inspire me!
Add me to the list of people who think you're pretty awesome.
But yeah ... I get that inner self-doubt monster. It sucks. You just gotta fight through it.
Well I think YOU are pretty awesome!
It really does. I've found that looking at my watch makes it worse, so I am trying to run as many runs blindly as I can. It's made my runs much better and more enjoyable!
Me too
Me....I just told Billy this days ago!
Y'all are the best. I really appreciate all of the love so much and am so thankful for each and every one of you!
