On Saturday, I showed up at Poinsetta Park planning to walk a charity 5K for
No training. No plan. Definitely no intention to run. (Have not run in years!)
But I ran 🏃♀️
I ran to remind myself that I can do hard things. I ran because I could—because it’s a privilege to move your body freely, especially in support of a cause bigger than yourself, especially for those who can’t. I ran because I ask people to step into discomfort all the time - and I refuse to ask something of others that I won’t continually ask of myself.
And I got to run alongside a team & community I deeply respect ✊
SmartFit is so much more than fitness on a whole other level —it’s an incredible caring community filled with awesome humans who elevate you in all the right ways.
So here’s your reminder:
You CAN do hard things.
Alone if you have to.
Together if you’re SMART 😉💪
And HUGE shout 📣out to extraordinary human and phenomenal photographer 🫶
