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

Now to rest up ... I have another #race next week 😱🙈🦆 #runhappy #runnersofinstagram #runmichigan

💪 Today I completed a running goal that has been on my list for many years: The Mackinac Island Trio! 🪻Lilac Run 10K 🌊 Mackinac 8-Miler 🐢 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. 🌸 I have done the 8-miler in the past and it’s a pretty easy and flat race. Lilac Run and Great Turtle were firsts for me and both had some serious climbing involved. 😵💫 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, I’m 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 half…and I have found that I don’t 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! 😁 #running #trailrunning #mackinacisland #runmackinac #10K #greatturtlerun #lilacrun #mackinac8miler #slowafrunclub #sisu

My face when my Garmin connect app finally begins working again! . half marathon training: week 3, day 2: this is a recovery week. Yesterday I actually had NO workouts scheduled, which was really nice! Today I completed a “Fast Finish” run, and it felt great. I feel like I’m finally getting the hang out this heart rate training!

Had an epic weekend adventure with mamoncheski! ⭐️ Stayed in #MackinawCity ⛴, explored #MackinacIsland ⚓️ and participated in the #GreatTurtleRun 🐢, and made a visit to #SleepingBearDunes 🐻National Lakeshore 🌊 on a scenic trip back home. 🚙 I may get around to posting more pics soon. 📷 #nationalpark #michigan #puremichigan

Half marathon ✅off of my bucket list thanks to these crazy PA school friends who love running (like how!?!) And our friend Jeannette along with spectators who cheered us on on a cold rainy windy day 🌧💨🌊 you’d think after a half you feel so achieved, but the reality is that my body ached so bad, my body was freezing cold and I barely could walk or smile for a medal picture 😂 Mackinac Island🏝 you were gorgeous. I hope I can return when it’s warm and sunny ☀️ and without the 🏃🏽♀️part. As much as I appreciated the nature, oh man how brutal you are Lake Michigan. You were so windy and I thought I’d give up the last 3 mi, and as beautiful as you are I think I hated you at the end💔 Although my joints hurt, muscles are sore, l still don’t like running, and I’m so ready to retire from my short lasting running career, I’d like to run a flat race so I can run faster. Why am I so competitive 😭 so in conclusion, unlike what you see mostly on social media post run, this is how I think people really feel after a half 🤷♀️#mackinacisland #greatturtlerun #halfmarathon

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

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

I never thought I'd do it, but I signed myself up for a half-marathon at end of October! And it's on Mackinac Island! Here's to staying committed and getting all my runs in, even on super warm days like today. #givemeallthewater #irun4lola
