I feel like a million bucks!! I went to runningfit_tcsouth today and got some new Brooks! I’m 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. I’m setting my goals on a fall half marathon. #beyou #bayshoremarathon #runner #pageant #runner #msmichigan #bikes #mom #maketime #fitfam #greatturtle #greatturtlerun #endorphins #sohappy

Results from yesterday’s Great Turtle! A road washout meant shorter course but more hills. The “dangerous hill” sign is actually at the start of the race. Nothing like torched quads in the first half mile. Lol! So much fun. My favorite race. Great medals, cool swag (fleece blankets this year). And a beautiful course. If you’re ever in northern Michigan in the fall, put this race on your radar. #greatturtletrailrun #greatturtlerun #runmackinacisland #runhappy #runmichigan #michiganrunner #mackinacisland #fallrunning

Another awesome race on #mackinacisland. It was carey86c and my second run on the island this year. After taking quite a break to nurse a hamstring injury, I was very pleased with the time I was able to put down. Naturally, carey86c finished ahead of me. One more run on the island this year to complete the tri-fecta. We will be back at the end of October for the #greatturtlerun

I already did my long run for the week but it was so beautiful today I couldn’t 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 finished my first half marathon. It was definitely not the easiest course (so many hills), but probably one of the most beautiful courses I'll ever run. #thegreatturtletrailrun #halfmarathon #mackinacisland #irun4lola
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 Cunningham’s and Gemmell’s - 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! I’m 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 #mackinacisland #greatturtlerun #familytime #fallcolortour

What an amazing day! The weather held out for the race... no rain until I was all finished. Probably the toughest course I've ever run, so I'm super happy with my time... I'll take a 14 minute pace when the race director starts with 'there's a really steep hill right at the beginning, but don't let it scare you, there are lots more after that one'. Such a beautiful course! Oh, and that medal! I'm in love with that medal ♡

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.)

The 2014 Mackinac Island Lilac Festival starts on Friday, June 6, and goes through June 15. Some early lilacs are blooming, but look for the majority to blossom starting next week. In the meantime, here’s a view of some of the early summer flowers adding their color and beauty to June on Mackinac Island.
