Week 6 of training and I want to quit.

12 More weeks until my Sky Island 50k and before each every run recently, the thought of dropping down to the 25k keeps racing through my mind.

15 miles is still hard and challenging but it's a safe play. I know I can do the 15 and not DNF.

The safe play is not what I'm after. I want to learn the lessons that come from enduring the struggle. Pushing past the discomfort builds resilience and self awarenes, even if I do DNF.

Here's to identifying as the person you want to become and building the habits to get there, one step at a time.

Si Se Puede!
Even if want to quit don't!

🤎 much love from someone who get it ✊🏽

I'm in searching for training accountability buddies, if type 2 fun is for you lets hit the trails, lift, and play in the water after.

I'm new to trail running and elevation climbing so it got dark on me. 😅 Can you relate?

Wanting to reach my goal but not tear up my body, I took it nice and steady.

Luckily I had a full phone battery because of course I forgot my head lamp. 🤦🏽‍♀️ I left it in my old trail bag.

🚨New rule always have a headlamp while heading out after 3pm.

1st trail race is scheduled for April 29th. I joined the Mount Everest Challenge to keep me focused 💪🏽 well the half Everest because you know..

Have big Chingona Goals but start small.

❗Si Se Puede❗

Show me the suffering of the most miserable; So I will know my people’s plight.

Free me to pray for others; For you are present in every person.

Help me take responsibility for my own life; So that I can be free at last.

Grant me courage to serve others; For in service there is true life.

Give me honesty and patience; So that I can work with other workers.

Bring forth song and celebration; So that the Spirit will be alive among us.

Let the Spirit flourish and grow; So that we will never tire of the struggle.

Let us remember those who have died for justice; For they have given us life.

Help us love even those who hate us; So we can change the world.

Amen 🙏🏽

The motto is: Move well 1st THEN move big weight. Saying "form over weight" does NOT mean you always play it safe & only lift light. It does NOT mean you don't have goals of pushing bigger weights & setting new personal records. It ONLY means you have your priorities straight.
Of course, how MUCH you lift is all that matters in competition (powerlifting, weightlifting, strongman, etc). I think that goes without saying. But in my experience, those who don’t have their priorities straight (maintaining the technique>weight motto) usually aren’t the ones lifting big weights for long.
The goal with all the content I share is to help you express your true strength potential AND find longevity within that journey.
I’m not saying you have to move perfectly - no one is perfect. There will be days where technique suffers on certain lifts - we’re all human and learning! There is also no “one way to lift” as everyone has slightly different leverages, mobility & injury histories. But there are fundamental pillars of technique we want to see that matter. The goal is to try and move well & then progress up in load!
