Running in my eyes


Be your own motivation and inspire others to do the same


#transformationtuesday probably my most favorite change I made in my life. Going beyond the norm and reaching for goals that most don't even think of. #marathonandbeyond #ultrarunning I don't believe everyone should run, I run because it's my life, I see so many people who run bc it's the new trend and that's great, it's a healthy lifestyle, don't force it, don't make it a job or a chore bc your friends do it, find your place in being active and do it over and over again until it breaks you or kills you. #mylife #love #running #runningmotivation #delirium24 #lowcountryultras #ultrarunning #scranton #nepa #adidasrunning @nationalrunningcenter thank you.



It's the act of running that matters, not the pace or the distance it's the journey where it takes you in life, the people you meet the adventures that the trail takes you. You can only be competitive with one person who matters the most, which is you. Don't make running a job or a chore, enjoy the moment, it might not last long. Run while you can and as you go inspire others and lift them higher. #ultrarunning #trailrunning #running #nepa #runningmotivation



and make them your reality.. Short term and long term goals will happen if you give it your all and stay dedicated to what you truly want and don't give in and give up, first mile is always the hardest. #ultratraining #ultrarunner #ultrarunning #miles #goals #dreams #runningmotivation


When something upsets you, don't give in or give up, stand your ground with your head held high, and move on to better things all while proving to those who didn't believe in you that you are better and stronger. This can comply to a few different areas of my life right now. So I'm going to dream like there are no boundaries and stay focused on what's to come


Repost. Thanks to @samanthacarrie4 

I know most feel the same way. #ultrarunning is so time consuming and trying to find just that extra time to do daily things like.. Take a shower, eat-while not running, go to the bank/pay bills, spend quality time with those you love. But some how you manage. And when your at work all you think about is tomorrow's run... and when your running all your thinking about is food, dogs, or how much you can't wait to come home and squeeze @anthony_naro #balance


Sometimes I wonder if the word CAN'T when entered in ones mind takes affect on ones physical performance. Also, i think that the word can't is what your mind thinks when you hit the wall, 1 2 3 maybe even 4 times during running.... How do you clear your mind of can't? How do you get past that wall? #ultrarunning #ultratraining #ultrarunner #runningmotivation #running Remember why you started, remember all those miles you put in training, remember all those I CANTs I have to run, remember that what you are doing is what you LOVE and you CANT give up.


Dreams, Goals, Reality. All done while believing in yourself. Reality won't happen if you don't do the work and do it right. #persistence in action will make you come closer and your heart and drive will get you there. #ultrarunning #runningmotivation #running #ultrarunner #ultratraining #believe #goals #goodnight


I started running when I was 8. Ran throughout high school, college. Ran marathons. 3 years ago I started venturing into ultra running. Over the past 2 years I have hit many bumps in the road, I have gone through a divorce, move 900 miles away from my closest friends, gone through an injury which at points thought I wouldn't and couldn't bounce back from. Every person has baggage, has a past, has regrets, and faults. It's how you overcome those and build yourself stronger, better and wiser. So dont let what is stopping you now stop you forever. #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #ultratraining #running #runningmotivation #injury #journey #irun



It's okay to be a little selfish when it comes to chasing your goals. Just be a good person, have a good heart, stay motivated on what's important. As you progress in life and in your goals you will shortly find out who your true friends are, who actually love and support you and your dreams. Inspire others to be better, that's the best gift you can give. #ultrarunning #ultratraining #running #runningmotivation

Worlds End Ultra 50k

If you don't look off to the sides, bears aren't there.  If you don't focus so much on the trail infront of you, you don't see snakes...  Maybe that noise I just heard was just some other runner falling into rubbish or maybe it's a bear? Well no bear and no snakes sights during this event, which is a win in my eyes!  World's End Ultra Marathon.   Location: Worlds End State Park, Pennsylvania  Distance: 50k Elevation gain: 6200+ft Course conditions: Wet, Mud Nutrition: 2 liters water, 4 oz coke. Looking back at all the ultra marathons I have ran (over 30 finishes) closer to over 40 If you want to count the few DNFs and a few distance switches. Besides the point, out of 30+ ultras I have ran, Worlds End is the toughest, most challenging course I have come across for the 50k distance, and to make the race even more brutal, we ran it in a heat wave. Rewind to 2 weeks prior. I got an email that my name was selected off the waitlist to be a participant. I ...

No Pressure, just smiles.

Decided to move up from 12 hour to the 24 hour for NJ Trail Series One Day race on November 8.  Why I moved up, has a lot to do with my upcoming race calendar. I've been trying to find a 100 to run this winter, but I couldn't find anything decently close. I feel like I'm ready for that distance, I'm curious to know what I can do. I have only ran one 100, that was on very little training and I walked the last 30 miles( 2 years ago ). So NJ One Day just fitting so perfectly with how I'm feeling about my training, also I planned on running 80-85 miles during the 12 hours, I'm also running a 12 hour (track) Dawn 2 Dusk 2 Dawn end of May and I believe my 80-85+ mile will be better off me pushing it hard on that track. Also, the 12 hour event at One Day starts at 9pm, I have nothing against night running, after all I will be doing it in the 24 hour after running 12 hours already....   As for my goals now for NJ One Day. Well, I know this is one of the last 24 hour eve...

Gearing up for training for 50k Championships

15 weeks until Caumsett USA 50k Championships!!! I don't have my races planned until after Caumsett. Which is great, gives my body time to rest, recover and a lot of time to get me in the best shape I can for championships. Last year I ran 3:48:26 (2nd over all female) also qualified me for World Trophy in Qatar. This was a 14 minute PR in 50k distance. Running this time was a little shocking since 2 weeks prior I ran 79 miles within 13 hours of a 24 hour race. I wasn't training for a 50k, so I am excited to see with focusing on that what I can do. Over the past 2 months I have won and set over all course records at Pine Creek 100k, and Sloppy Cuckoo 12 hour. Also, I have hit my PR in marathon distance (3:02) which was also only 2 weeks post a 12 hour race, again with not focusing on marathon training. I plan to take 2 weeks off (but still running maintenance miles and strength training). After that I plan to focus all my energy into 50k training. The race is in Long Island NY....
