I lost 200 pounds, fell in love with running, and now I’m trying to live the healthiest life I can while raising a toddler. My passion is helping people believe in the things they thought were impossible.
I took a break from reading in December, but I’m back now. I started off the new year by reading Ace of Spades about two teenagers on the verge of starting their next chapter. School gossip threatens to take them down until they discover the truth and fight back. • . And I’m re-reading the first two books of Magnolia Parks so I can finish the books already out before the new book comes out in February. IYKYK. I loved these first two books, but I didn’t want to devour the series until I was ready to give it my full attention. That time is now. • .

Half marathon ☑️. @rundallastx was a great time. The weather was too cold for this girl so every joint in my body hurt. The good news is: it was still fun! The people of Dallas are phenomenal spectators! I wasn’t ready for this race but I sure did have a good time. • • • • #momworksitout #motherrunners #blackgirlsrun #rundallas #texasrunning #texasrunners #runnerslife #runnerscommunity #runnersofinstagram #blackrunners #runningmama #igrunners #halfmarathoner #halfmarathon #runwalkrun

October was a fun month. Met new friends, ran some races, went to #f1 #usgp, and did all the fall things with the family. October is a month to remember. • • • • #momworksitout #runnerslife #runnerslifestyle #octoberdump #photodump #runningmama #fallvibes #octobervibes #familylife #familytime #blackcontentcreator #blackcontentcreators #blackjoy #livingmybestlife
Notes on a great @f1 weekend. It was the greatest weekend of my life until I went we’re driving home and found out @lewishamilton got disqualified. Now that I’m past it, I can say it was fun to see the action, meet new people, and I got to see the podium ceremony. @cota_official was great and I can’t wait until next year. • • • • #momworksitout #f1racing #cota #usgp #f1fans #f1 #weekenddump #weekendvibes
Long days = even longer weeks. Some days you just get out and move to get through the day. #momworksitout #blackgirlsruntoo #blackgirlsrun #runnerslifestyle #runnerslife #balancedlifestyle #findbalanceinlife #runnerthings #runningcommunity #blackcontentcreators #CapCut
September was a good month. Going through the camera roll, I learned a few things: I spent a lot of time outside, there were many workouts at @hotworx.beaumont, more family time, I read some good books, and I did many PTA things! • . I’m glad the heat turned down for more outside time, but I’m happy I have these great memories to share with the world. Thanks for the mmrs, September.• • • • #momworksitout #photodump #september #septemberdump #momlifestyle #healthylifestyles #blackgirlsrun #runningmama #runnerslife #readingcommunity #readingaddict #readinglife #blackcontentcreator #blackmoms
Obviously, I’m either do the #runwalkrun or I’m at @hotworx! @hotworx.beaumont • • • • #momworksitout #workoutroutine #healthylifestyles #healthyliving #moveyourbody #movementismedicine #movement #runningmama #igrunners #instarunners #blackgirlsrun #motherrunners
It’s been a week. This is a #photodump that I’m happy to share because I made it through the week. It was a hard, stressful, abs emotionally exhausting week. Just a reminder that I can do hard things, challenge myself, and still hold it together. • • • • #momworksitout #momlife #weekinthelife #weeklyphotodump #runnerslife #blackgirlsrun #runningmama #runnerlife #livingmybestlife #blackcontentcreators #blackcontentcreator

I started just using it for my bike to supplement my workouts when I stopped teaching my indoor cycle classes. I love group fitness workouts because I didn’t have to think about programming; someone else did the work for me. If you don’t know, I’m in training for a virtual 10K (Austin Statesmen Cap 10K) because I haven’t covered mileage during the pandemic. I am excited to be gaining some mileage back safely to be ready to run a half marathon when I want to run a race.
Peloton 10 min warm-up walk + 30 min walk and run + I did the walk/run at a much faster pace than the previous week, but I was losing salt very quickly. I like to do two strength workouts during the week, but I will also focus on some upper body stuff and my core workouts. My focus for this week: more strength workouts, getting more quality sleep, and continuing building my weekly mileage with more bits of running.
To add an extra boost to my winter hydration, I’ve used the NOW® Sports Effer-Hydrate and NOW® On most days, I start with a NOW Sports Effer-Energy tablet in the morning to make sure I’m kicking off my hydration off right. The tablets dissolve in water in a short amount of time, usually about 5 minutes to fully dissolve, which is the perfect time to get other things ready while you’re waiting. It’s an easy way to meet aid your body in recovery it needs to keep you going to achieve your goals, plus it tastes so good like you’re drinking a fancy fizzy drink by the pool.
