Reminder to self: Not only can you do hard things, you actually like doing them 😅 As I’ve shared before, I didn’t start my running journey with any big goals or plans. I just wanted to squeeze in more of my favorite hiking trails into my busier life. And yet here we are… the run in these pictures? Almost 13 miles…The furthest I’ve run EVER. If you’ve followed me since the PCT you know I’ve hiked much bigger days, but I’ve never run more than 10 miles in one day. Hiking has always been my slow, steady, take-all-day approach. Trail running though? It’s addictive. I find myself craving the bigger challenges, partly because I love the trails and partly because I love testing what I’m capable of. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m still incredibly an incredibly slow runner, but I’m excited to see where this trail running journey takes me (pun intended lol). Anyone else loving trail running this summer? #trailrunning #motherrunner #mountainrunning #outdooradventures #coloradorunner
