I feel like a million bucks!! I went to runningfit_tcsouth today and got some new Brooks! Iβm an Asics girl but they were so comfortable!! The kids went biking and I pegged in a 2.5 mile run. Running is something I used to do everyday but I let it slip away. Iβm setting my goals on a fall half marathon. #beyou #bayshoremarathon #runner #pageant #runner #msmichigan #bikes #mom #maketime #fitfam #greatturtle #greatturtlerun #endorphins #sohappy

Closing out a great family weekend on Mackinac Island! Growing up my dad ran the series of running races on the island every year and we would trek up as a family with our good friends the Cunninghamβs and Gemmellβs - ten kids and three couples gallivanting around the island and cheering on our dads when they finished the race. This year we ran as a family, it was a beautiful day! Today also marked four months post stem cell transplant for my dad! Iβm so proud of his strength and determination. Thank you dad for teaching me how to fight, hustle and live life to the very fullest! You are a true inspiration β€οΈ #mackinacisland #greatturtlerun #familytime #fallcolortour

πͺ Today I completed a running goal that has been on my list for many years: The Mackinac Island Trio!
πͺ»Lilac Run 10K
π Mackinac 8-Miler
π’ Great Turtle Trail Run (5.7 miles)
I spent a lot of time on the island this year, and it has been so fun and so meaningful. πΈ
I have done the 8-miler in the past and itβs a pretty easy and flat race. Lilac Run and Great Turtle were firsts for me and both had some serious climbing involved. π΅βπ«
Today was really challenging mentally. It was the most crowded race and super hilly, so it was hard to get into that blissful race flow. I also just had life on my mind. However, Iβm glad I did it because I surprised myself.
I have done a LOT of challenging races this year. A 6-hour trail run, a hilly halfβ¦and I have found that I donβt care about time but rather the mental challenge of it all.
Going into next year, this will be more important than ever as I train for my biggest challenge yet! π

I already did my long run for the week but it was so beautiful today I couldnβt pass up the first chance to enjoy highway 185 around the island. Nothing but the sound of the lake lapping the rocks on the shoreline the whole way around! Felt good most of the run and finished strong. #runmackinac #greatturtlerun #running #runhappy #islandrunner #riseandrun #getoutside #hikertrash #runnersofinstagram #runnerscommunity

JUST A REMINDER: While you are waiting for the fall color season to arrive, the late-summer color is spectacular on Mackinac Island. Here’s a late-summer glimpse of the walkway garden at the Hotel Iroquois on the Beach. (Bonus: the weather forecast for this weekend is looking great for a late-summer color tour of Mackinac Island.)
