"Then God said, 'Let US make mankind in OUR image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.'"--Genesis 1:26 NIV We were all created to reflect His perfect image; not one race of people, not one gender of people, not one politically conservative nor liberal people, not one rich nor poor people, but mankind as single entity. We all need to love God and one another as self so we can exist in harmony as God initially intended and created. #MLK2018 #loveeveryonealways #civilrights #harmony #hope #humanity #love #truth #peace

Marathon training just got even more real. I had to purchase new pair @1stplacesports because I felt my old ones were causing most of my recent aches and discomforts. Let's break into these new babies asap! #brooks #stabilityshoes #been3years #marathontraining #gettingDonnaready #5weekstogo #1stplacesports #shortlegs #shortgirlrunning #runlife #fitness #904fitness #fitstyle #nomoreheelsforme

Since I've bit the bullet and registered for my first Donna, I just had to get my running in today. Schedule called for 5 miles, i think, but i decided to adopt Spartan's HIT and did 20 rounds of 1:00 jog/sprint/jog with 0:30walk and covered 8 miles. I'm happy. #legstrengthandpower #firstmarathon #marathontraining #running #justdoit #mindoverbody #spartangirl #girlswhorun #fitmom #fitlife #chinsweat #briskoutside #indoorrun #treadmill #intervaltraining #hiit #gettingdonnaready #mmamom

How amazing it felt to get out and get our bodies moving! Thanks @thepopezilla for being such an awesome sport and teaching a group class of ONE person. Took away some great tips, advice and techniques! My children had great time just running around and being their silly selves. #ludusmma #mmamom #memyselfandkids #floridacoldisntmuch #keepbodiesmoving #fitnessisjourney #fitlife #cardio #punchesandkicks #rings (at Ludus Martial Arts)

Soooo, fellow runners/marathoners out there...any tips on training for first marathon? I decided last week to try training for the donna marathon... which left me pretty much less than 8weeks to train. While i can cover half marathon with or without training, marathon is on a totally different level, IMO. I know there's lot more mental fortitude that's involved. Also, the body will pay a bigger toll... and I felt it a bit of that this morning after i completed 17 miles (longest I've ever covered to date) on a whim. My cardio was great at a slow steady pace, but my feet and left hip flexor/knee were bothering me by 16th mile. Any tips or advices on how i can overcome this physical limitation? Any conditioning recommendation? I already do bodyweight workouts, weights, muay thai and bjj...just a bit of everything. #firstmarathontraining #donna #donnamarathon #running #conditioning #hipflexors #achingfeet #runningadvice #anytipsappreciated #shortgirlrunning #shortgirlshortlegs #cardio #cardiofix #ineedtodoabs

Couple photo op of my boy after he woke up from his nap during our morning stroller run. I wanted to practice serves on the court and he decided to have a little fun with me. 😍😍 Beautiful day out...tad brisk, but certainly pleasant. Now time for lunch. #winterbreak #busytoddlerlife #nicemorning #mommyandson #almostlunchtime
