I'm using the next 100 days to lock in on knocking out my goal of reaching 280LBs. When I'd first written down that number, I didn't know if it was possible. But one thing this journey has taught me was to never doubt what is possible for yourself. Feel free to join me.

A mile is a mile, but an uphill one is VERY different from downhill 💪🏽🙌🏽

Was aiming for sub 30 and I did that, and also did a negative split and 5K PR 🙏🏽🏃🏾‍♀️

Total time: 28:54 vs. 31:01 last 5K
Pace: 9:19 vs. 10:00
Fastest mile: 8:50 vs. 9:15
Max Elevation: 167ft vs. 31ft

We NEVER fear, fear. We don't even fear failure because we know failure builds us up, giving us experience. Let's beat the fear of taking action 💯

Determining in advance that there's a possibility that you can, and will, face hardships along the path to your goal will help prepare you mentally when they arrive 💯
