Today was one of my favorite paddling days this season. I wasn’t out there that long, but the water was calm and glassy and with my puffy vest and hot apple cider, I am finally embracing fall and loving every second of it! Delighted to see so many paddlers and boaters out there today, too. More than I was expecting. Fall paddling is AWESOME. 🍁🍂#justagirlandherpaddleboard #boatingindc #potomacriver #autumnpaddling #dcpaddler

Just over five weeks until @philly_marathon! Use code AMBASSADOR19SB when you register for the 8K, half-marathon, or marathon or any of the challenges. Race weL

Good luck to everyone running the @baltimorerunfest this weekend!! Can’t believe it’s been 4 years since I got to ring the PR bell. 😭This course is a challenge but #Baltimore is a great city and this race is special to me. #baltrunfest #baltimorerunningfestival #runbaltimore #charmcity #bluethecrab

Wind blown🌬 and cider-buzzed.🍺#rosslynva #ciderfest #autumnfun #crispoctoberday #rosslynciderfest @rosslynva

Super pumped for tonight’s @nationals game!! I believe our guys can win it. Let’s always run and play baseball in October! 😀⚾️❤️🦈🏆#natitude #octoberbaseball #stayinthefight

Those autumn evenings on the water... #justagirlandherpaddleboard #boatingindc #octoberpaddling #potomacriver #stayarlingtonfit #autumnindc #washingtondc

8 miles on a gloomy but warm day. Fall is just the best running season! If your training is going well and you want a challenge, give the @philly_marathon, @rothmanortho, or half-marathon a try this November! Code ⭐️AMBASSADOR19SB⭐️for $20 off. #phillymarathontraining #phillymarathonambassador #fallrunning #rundc

Five miles trying to decide if I ran my mouth too much today instead of my legs. #marathontraining #myjobishard #latenightcomehome #worksucksiknow #stayarlingtonfit #runrosslyn

#tbt I’m rooting for you this weekend @chimarathon runners!! I took to the streets of Chicago in 2014– 5 years ago!!! It was a difficult run for me, but an easy course! I often think I want another go at it (will have to contend with summer training😫). Just have fun, relax and run, and enjoy the flat and fast course. Then go get some Chicago-style deep dish afterwards!🍕🍻#chimarathon #ownchicago #chicagomarathon #wmmajors #runchicago #runchi #throwbackthursday

Now’s the time to start practicing your race photo face for the @philly_marathon 😆Which runner are you— do you act like a goofball when you see a photographer on course? Do you wave, smile, or put on your most hardcore face for that perfect badass shot? Do you “like never ever see them” and end up with terrible photos? Let me know! And then go register using ⭐️AMBASSADOR19SB⭐️ for $20 off! Remember that every race is a chance at race photo redemption 😉😄#phillymarathon #runphiladelphia #runphilly #phillymarathonambassador #racephotos #marathon #aacr #dietzandwatson #rothmanorthopedics8k #novemberrunning @dietzandwatson @rothmanortho

Going through my photos to clear up some storage space on my phone, I found myself browsing through some pictures I took during my training for the 2018 Disney Marathon. Posting training pictures to Instagram has never been about getting followers and I’d never want to use this platform or any other to make someone feel they’re not “good enough” for what I do as a hobby and way to stay healthy. And I mean this in the most humble sense, but I am so glad I take those pictures because at a time when I’m feeling like I will never reach my own goals because dammit I felt so proud of myself. For one thing, I never used to let the dark scare me from getting out there. At least three times, I jumped off an airplane and ran between 6 and 16 miles. One time, after a super busy day at work, I even went for a 10-mile run at 9:30PM in December! Who was that woman and how do I get her back!? For starters, I got out and ran 5 miles in the dark. And it felt every bit as fearless as I remembered. No more talking myself out of things I have proven I can do. #phillymarathontraining #phillymarathonambassador #eveningrunner #stayarlingtonfit

Wishing everyone the best of luck getting into the @londonmarathon. After years of trying, I got into the 2019 race through the lottery out of pure dumb luck. Since I ran it in April, I’ll be on the floor of my living room doing strength work or walking through the apartment to grab one last sip of water before heading out for a run and I look up and see my finisher medal on the wall and I’m still in disbelief that it’s there. It might take years of trying or all your love and resources to raise funding, but it’s worth it. Don’t stop believing! #londonmarathon

The difference in temperatures from last weekend is definitely noticeable. Instead of wearing bikinis and swim trunks, the boaters who did come out had on jackets and sweaters! It felt a little lonely on the water without all the boats, but I did count about 10 total that came out to enjoy the day as well as a bunch of paddlers. It’s weird that the air had a slight chill but the water felt warm. The sun tried to come out, which made the overcast day a little silvery and pretty. I spent about 2 hours paddling up to Tom’s Rock and back. I definitely think the cool weather is wonderful for paddling; the cool air is nothing to keep me off the water. If you’re interested in giving it a try, now is the time before next season! #justagirlandherpaddleboard #boatingindc #stayarlingtonfit #fallpaddling #dcpaddler #potomacriver

Not a PR this morning but not a reason not to celebrate a strong race! Yes I did squeeze my water bottle all over my head when I crossed the finish line😀🍂🍁💦#fallclassic10k #prraces #fallrunning #sundayrunday 📸: @enmotive_virginia @potomacriverrunning

Speedy little 10K out in beautiful Ashburn to start my Sunday! Still have 9.8 miles to run today, and this was definitely a faster run than I anticipated. But I am SO PROUD of my cadence— 173!!! That is an evergreen area of practice for me, so it’s nice to finally see it go up. Remind me to keep doing strength work... I can feel the difference in my running! Also, this was the inaugural Fall Classic 10K with @potomacriverrunning and, while I’m disappointed that the media ribbon isn’t purple (ah a white-gold/blue-black dress situation...it’s actually brown but still super gorgeous... purple medal ribbons are always a quest for me because I only have two in a sea of red and blue and black ribbons), I highly recommended this race. 🍁🍂#sundayrunday #prraces #virginiaisforrunners #runoneloudon #fallclassic10k

It’s the time of year when I accept the inevitable and bring my coastal fall decorations out to play! 🙂🍂🍁#coastaldecor #coastalfalldecor #autumn #seasonaldecor

How was I raised in Nebraska and never realized how EMPOWERING country music is!? @carrieunderwood you put on a hell of a show that totally and completely reignited the country girl in me!! #cryprettytour360 #countrymusic #canttakethecountryoutofthegirl

I love warm golden hours, but there’s also something about dark, gloomy, warm-cool evenings that just put me at peace. 😌#seasonschanging #potomacriver #seenonmyrun

Compared to last night, this run was a cakewalk! My Garmin only counted 3.69 miles because either I didn’t push the start button hard enough or I pushed the wrong button after waiting at a crosswalk, but that’s okay. I knew where the turn was so I know I got all 4 miles done. #phillymarathontraining #phillymarathonambassador #rundc #fallrunning #octoberrunning #stayarlingtonfit

Paddled around leisurely for about an hour in 95-degree October. I loved the weather for this activity but, after the boathouse closed early (too early!!) I went for a 4-mile run that was 91 degrees when I was done. That part makes me ready for fall. But the hard, awful run was a small price to pay for a happy hug of a warm sunny evening paddle☺️#justagirlandherpaddleboard #boatingindc #potomacriver #fallpaddling #latesummer
