If you’re hitting the last few weeks of the summ If you’re hitting the last few weeks of the summer training block feeling like your fitness fell off a cliff, you’re not alone. Summer running is a unique kind of suffering. Now is the time to trust in your training. All of those hot, humid miles will pay dividends this fall! 🍁

My job: force-feed him, find rubber gloves and butt butter, keep him moving, and somehow keep the vibes alive. 😂

His job: make history.

Four years after meeting @brianreynoldsrunner while he was training for his first Leadville attempt, I got to pace him toward becoming the first double amputee to finish the Leadville 100.

Some adventures are hard. Some are unforgettable.

This one was both. 🤍

And a huge thank you to @allcareoandp and @cafoundation for helping make moments like this possible—and for getting me the running prosthesis that allows me to chase miles, mountains, and adventures like this one. 🦿⛰️

Sound up 📢 to appreciate why I’m still waiting for my voice to recover.

It’s like Christmas morning, runner edition! No It’s like Christmas morning, runner edition!

Not as fun as a new pair of shoes, but getting fuel for long runs and marathon training is still a highlight for the week.

This round I’m trying the Carbs Fuel 50g to make it easier to get in 70-75g of carbs per hour. With 20% off they were a steal at $1.60 per gel.

I also got some tried and true SIS isotonic and SIS beta fuel to rotate in. I personally find the SIS isotonic sits better if you have a sensitive stomach (🙋‍♀️) but also harder to hit a higher carb per hour target.

Follow along for more things running, training and making the most of what you’ve got.

Back to running 🏃‍♀️ —and stronger than Back to running 🏃‍♀️ —and stronger than ever.

I was worried that a few weeks off might set me back, but with the right approach it doesn’t have to. What it showed me is what actually matters:

✔️ Fueling enough
✔️ Supporting my body (not punishing it)
✔️ Training with intention

Today’s run felt smooth, strong, and effortless—and that’s not by accident.

For years I thought more mileage = better results.

But the truth? Undereating, under-recovering, and overtraining will hold you back even more.

You don’t need to do more.

You need to fuel smarter. And recover better. Because that’s what allows your body to adapt to all the training you’re putting in.

Stop comparing yourself to everyone else! It’s e Stop comparing yourself to everyone else! It’s easy to get caught up in the comparison game - “she ran further” or “she ran faster” and suddenly you start feeling like you’re falling behind. 

I know the feeling well as I take a 2 week intentional pause on running in the middle of Berlin training. But I trust my body and my training and I know I’ll return to training recovered and ready to GO!
