#fbf // In 2010, I ran @thesfmarathon. It was amazing-- it was my second marathon and my first time really training for a race, and I shaved more than an hour off my first marathon. I loved that race, and it made me feel so inspired to see what I was capable of.⁣ ⁣ In 2011, I was honored to be chosen as an amabassador for the 2012 SF Marathon. I met some amazing folks, wrote my first piece about dealing with anxiety for their site, and was so excited to run again. Then, I got hit by a car, and was unable to run the race. I was heartbroken, and didn't know if I'd ever get the chance to race San Francisco ever again.⁣ ⁣ 12 marathons later, and I've recovered and rediscovered running. So, you can imagine my joy when I got the email right now saying I'm a 2019 SF Marathon ambassador (I maybe got a little emotional). This race will come at the end of an epic, life-changing summer, and I'm so excited to meet a whole new group of amazing people, encourage people to run this race, and have a blast supporting an organization I love. Let's do this thing!⁣ Interested in training?? Scared you can’t do it?? Let’s work together!! ⁣ #BiofreezeSFM #ThisIsRUN365 #RunTheBay #BSFM2019 #OwnBSFM2019 #runstrong #marathon #marathontraining #running #runner #hawaii

🌇"You have always been the place... you were born to build." - Sarah Kay, "The Type"⁣ ⁣ ✨The nice thing about having talented friends is that you get to benefit from their gifts, even when you're super tired and you have no control of your face.⁣ 🤣 ⁣ ✨A year ago, I posted some of my favorite professional photos of me ever, taken by my friend the brilliant @calamic_photography (seriously, hire him). He sent me these new ones to the day, and it not only made me appreciative of his friendship and work, but also of how much my life has changed over the past year. ⁣ ⁣ ✨A year ago, life was on an upward swing, but I had so much learning, healing, and growing to do. A year ago, I was *finally* starting to rediscover my footing after spending far too long believing that I couldn't trust myself. A year ago, I was slowly building the foundation I needed to love and be loved in so many ways-- familial, platonic, romantic-- in a whole new way I hadn't had before: full, complete, giving, trusting. I realize now that not only did I have so much work within myself to do, but that the power to grow had been there all along, waiting until I was ready to receive it. ⁣ ⁣ ✨So, today, I am so grateful for the journey, for the girl I was and the woman I'm becoming, and the people in my life that have helped me get there. Today, I am sparkling with overwhelming gratitude at my life, and how blessed I feel to experience it in its fullness. #portrait #headshot #photography #hawaii #luckywelivehawaii #kaimuki #keepitkaimuki

#tbt out on the trail and my first time playing with a GoPro! Trying to remember the “why” and joy of running after a difficult long-run yesterday. It’s not about the number of miles— it’s about the journey itself. #running #runner #trailrunning #trailrunner #running #hawaii

Running is about so much more than the race itself. It’s about all the beautiful moments along the way. ⁣ ⁣ I’m grateful for this reminder as I jump back into @runrevel training and prepping to pace the #hurt100 in a few weeks. It’s a good run when I remember to stop and appreciate it. ⁣ ⁣ #running #runner #marathon #marathontraining #luckywelivehawaii #diamondhead #beach #ocean #hawaii
