This is @becchamm, pro obstacle course runner. She is heading off to North American Spartan Championships this weekend and then to Tahoe for World Championships. We met up for a little muscle oxygen monitoring fun this morning so that we can more specifically plan her last training cycle before Worlds. See that look on her face? I can’t say I would want to race her! It was amazing to see that she desaturated to 1% in all muscles tested. I’ve never seen that before!This girl knows how to run until she is done. We are cheering for you Becca! . . . @spartan #spartan #ocr #ocrtraining #runlikeagirl #runner #obstaclecourse #smo2 #trainsmart #trainhard #womensrunningcommunity #womenrunning #runnerscommunity #obstaclecourseracing

My friend @anniek259 took this photo. I laughed hysterically when I saw it. My kids laughed hysterically. My son keeps saying, “can I see that funny photo of you?” I said to Annie, “why can’t I be that pretty smiling runner like I see in race photos from so many of my competitors? Her response was brilliant: “Because not everything that is beautiful is pretty… Watching somebody dig deep into their person to go after a goal is beautiful, even if in the moment it doesn’t look that pretty!” I adore this thoughtful response. May you all laugh at my expense and also see something pretty in getting gritty. . . . . @womensrunningcommunity #raceday #womenrunning #womensrunningcommunity #motherrunner #roadrace #fasterasamaster #runner #running #runstrong #runhappy #runhard #loverunning

Friends, I must apologize in advance but I must do a little bragging. I ran a road race off my mountain training. I don’t do fast intervals unless they are uphill. I went into Bridge Of Flowers thinking I could help my team (WMDP) and found myself battling for first with friend Jenna Gigliotti. I got her in the last mile but she put up an excellent fight! This is part of the Grand Prix so it’s a big New England race. I have said at least 100 times today, “I can’t believe it.” These 40 year old legs aren’t done with fast racing! Look at my splits! 📸 by @anniek259 . . . . #womenrunning #raceday #runlikeagirl #runnermom #womensrunningcommunity #runnerscommunity #runitfast

I often wonder what kind of runner I would have been if I didn’t quit. I am sure I was a 15 something 5k runner, a 2:30 something marathoner but I quit during what should have been my best years. I did that. That was my choice. I am *mostly* okay with that choice (ugh! sometimes I really do wonder....) and many years later, I turned to this other thing. This body strong thing. This goal of running up crazy hills as fast as I can. It’s slow but I love it. 🏃‍♀️ Today I am 40. This is what you think about when you turn 40. 🏃‍♀️ I had this idea to celebrate the four and the zero athletically, like all athletes do on their birthdays. Using those numbers I decided to participate in my first “ultra.” 4 miles at 20% on my treadmill equals 4000 feet of gain. Then straight off to the roads— 40 miles on my ElliptiGo. 🏃‍♀️ It was weird how excited I felt just thinking about my plan, like I was getting ready for a party with friends but it was just me, my treadmill and my ElliptiGo. Do those count as friends? In my world they do. The only one missing was my other friend named Trails. 🏃‍♀️ Brooke: If this is your idea of a good birthday, remind me NOT to allow you to plan my birthday. 🏃‍♀️ Peter: I want to come! Me: not today friend. Peter: can you take me on a 40 mile ride another day? 🏃‍♀️ Ethan: I’ll take the day off from work. Me: my big toe has been painful. Ethan: do it anyway. 🏃‍♀️ I’m celebrating 40 and those numbers but still, it hurts. Athletically, it hurts. I’ll always wonder about the what ifs on the track and the what ifs if I ever found my way to the marathon. My days of strong running feel numbered. I know what you all will say but I can’t help it! This is 40, pass me a beer. I know a proper 40 year old woman requests a glass of wine, but I’m not that kind of girl. 🏃‍♀️ My little adventure this morning took me 4.5 hours and you know what? I felt as strong as ever, totally prepared for what I asked my body to do. This is 40! . . . . #runsteep #runsteepgethigh #mountains #mountainrunning #pushyourlimits #runnergirl #running #run #runitfast #womenrunning #runnerscommunity #runnersworld #fitatforty #mastersrunner #fasterasamaster

My bike is big and can be awkward to fit into my car but when I’m on it, I fly. I feel like a speed machine zooming down the road, so tall and elegant and STRONG. . . . . #elliptigo #trainsmart #runner #run #trainhard #athlete #cycle #elliptical #mountainrunner #trailrunner #running #crosstrain #runrunrun #runfit #instarunners #runnerslife #cyclelife #elliptigo_usa

In this moment, I was not having fun. I was thinking, I don’t want to run vertical Ks.... it’s funny how those feelings fade so quickly and now I feel ready to do it all over again. #whitefacemountain . . . . #runsteep #runsteepgethigh #mountains #mountainrunning #pushyourlimits #runnergirl #raceday #running #run #runitfast #womenrunning #runnerscommunity #runnersworld #trailrunning #view #trailrunningviews
