Round 2... after having my boobs bandaged up by my boyfriend (who said romance is dead?) And finding myself a new sports bra... . I went out again and only bloody achieved my best pace!!!! ‍♂️‍♂️ to anyone like me who is just starting out and feel like you're not gonna get anywhere, keep going! Every small victory gets you closer to your goal. It's hard but so rewarding!! . That being said my brother ran the #greatbirmingham10k today and absolutely killed it with a time of around 50 minutes. Sibling rivalry and all that, my goal is to beat him (one day, maybe in a decade) . Now for a Sunday roast, bath and chilled Sunday evening . . . #halfmarathontraining #mentalhealthuk #fundraising #itsoknottobeok #running #runkeeper #fitness #beginnerrunner #wellness #runnersofinstagram #birminghamhalfmarathon #bhamrunners #runbham #slowcoach #runformentalhealth #exercise #exercisemotivation #couchtohalfmarathon #couch25k #instarun #happy #learningtorun #healthymind #endorphins #sundayrunday #blackcountryrunners

Wasnt going to bother posting this, but it's all a learning curve... . Both sports bras were in the wash so I opted for a tight vest top under a tshirt (normal bras rub so aren't an option). I have discovered the dreaded #chafing between my boobs of all places, and now have open bleeding wounds . I'm currently in Sainsburys trying to find a last minute replacement so I can complete my run today, to no avail. On to Mark's & Spencers to spend my life savings The perils of being a big breasted woman... . So there you have it, hopefully I'll be posting another run later!! . . . #halfmarathontraining #mentalhealthuk #fundraising #itsoknottobeok #running #runkeeper #fitness #beginnerrunner #wellness #runnersofinstagram #birminghamhalfmarathon #bhamrunners #runbham #slowcoach #runformentalhealth #exercise #exercisemotivation #couchtohalfmarathon #couch25k #chafing #sportsbra #girlrunner

. Not sure if the reason I love running at the moment is because . It gives me time to think, or . It gives me a precious hour of my day where my brain does no thinking at all... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #run #runner #running #ukrunchat #runthroughuk #runningtherapy #mentalhealth #runformentalhealth #runningismytherapy #runstrong #runlikeagirl #runspiration #runningmotivation #runhappy #runnersofinstagram #instarunners #womensrunningcommunity #runningcommunity #teamenertor #prettyathletic #tbt #throwbackthursday @enertorglobal

Finally!! Can't tell you how amazing it felt to be back in the gym today. AND I realized they got much more new equipment than I realized, including but not limited to brand new Woodway treadmills that looked so snazzy I knew all self control of taking a full cross training day was out the window. So snuck in a short run to try them out after my date with the stair master. Surprisingly, I was climbing strong today. Usually by the end I feel I can't take another step, but today I could have gone on...but those treadmills were calling my name. Then got in my strength, trying some new squat and lunge variations with the TRX straps. A very satisfying workout and now I'm definitely looking forward to my easy miles tomorrow!!‍♀️ Hope you all have a super Sunday!! #runnersofig #runformentalhealth #running #runninginspiration #runtoinspire #runallthemiles #runhappy #runwithpassion #stillirun #mentalhealthwarrior #strongereveryday #strength #resilience #goalsmashing #runnergirl #thisgirlcan #mentalhealthawareness #fitlife #fitness #fitfam #lovetorun #veganrunners #plantpowered #plantstrong #runstrong

Day 5 of the #sirunstreak done! With so many new people in the community because of the Run Streak, I thought it would be a nice time to do a quick reintroduction! . Hi, I'm @sashawolff and the founder of @stilliruncommunity . In 2011 I was hospitalized for depression and anxiety. After a week-long stay there, I discovered the mental health benefits of running. Soon after, I started looking for a community of mental health road warriors to connect with and unfortunately couldn't find anything! In 2016, I decided to just start that community myself and thus Still I Run was born! . When I'm not running for my mental health, or managing Still I Run, I work full time as a internal communications professional for a global furniture company. I'm also married, and a mom to a 17 month old baby girl and two old dogs! . While Still I Run isn't a full-time job for me, it is my goal to to make it such. I truly believe there is a place in this world for this community and I'd like to make it a national movement someday. There are so many more of us out there running for our mental health and I'd love for SIR to continue to bring us all together while we defeat the stigma, raise awareness, and help people get mental health care!! ❤ . . . #stillirun #run #runner #runnersofig #runnersofinsta #runningcommunity #womensrunning #womensrunningmagazine #runnersworld #runstrong #runhappy #runformentalhealth #run4mentalhealth #mentalhealth #running #mentalhealthadvocate #mentalhealthmatters

2018, man. One of the very best years, following one of the very hardest. In May 2017, my husband moved cross-country for grad school and I stayed in Utah at my first teaching job. Even though this was undoubtedly the right thing for us, it still took its toll. The anxiety and obsessive worrying I had previously (somewhat) managed to keep at bay spiraled out of control without my rock around. It was all I could do to put on a smile and show up for my students every day, but it was eating me alive. I started to make some progress by trying out therapy & medication for the first time, and by confirming what I had long figured but avoided addressing: my Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. These were all scary, major steps in my life—ones I sorely needed but alone were not enough. It wasn’t until I added TRAIL RUNNING to the mix that I found deeper healing. Meds & cognitive behavior therapy helped rewire my BRAIN so it could shift gears between thoughts more easily. Trail running grounded my SOUL and opened my HEART to a revolutionary sense of peace. I found strength to be comfortable with myself in the moment instead of constantly dwelling in the past. Calmness through deep breathing began to replace the feelings of dread that had weighed down my chest & stomach around the clock. I learned to love myself more and started to believe that maybe, just maybe, I didn’t have to hate myself after all. As the months progressed my abilities did, too. Not just my muscles’ capacity to keep me moving for hours on end, but my ability to persevere through any obstacle with confidence. If I could go from a 5k in January to a 25k in April, and two 50k’s in the fall, then I can handle anything in life—no matter how daunting it may seem. I am still learning & growing, both body & soul, and I hope I NEVER ever stop. Thank you to each and every person who has been a part of my journey this year! I needed you. May 2019 bring us all great health, healing, and happiness!

A week ago today I ran my second ultra! 31 miles through the breathtaking slick rock of Moab, UT. It was an amazing experience that taught me so much! The biggest takeaway for both my training and life in general is how to handle fleeting discomfort and pain. I’ve found in the 11 months leading up to today that most aches and pains will come and go. So I reminded myself every time my feet or knees or glutes started to hurt that it would eventually go away. This helped me not to fixate on the pain nor let it control me; instead, I controlled it by keeping it in perspective and being responsive to what my body needed in that moment. So it is in life: hard times will come, but they will always pass. I used to let even the slightest worry consume literally days of my life. But I’ve learned to feel, deal, & heal (like @heytiffanyroe says) rather than freak out and let anxiety completely consume me. That being said, there may come issues in trail running you simply can’t deal with on your own (like falling and breaking a bone), and it’s okay—even necessary—to seek out help. So it is in life: sometimes we just need the help of therapy, medication, rehabilitation, friends, family, books, or a combination of these things. Regardless, we can do this. I’ve been amazed at what my body and soul can do when I give them time, grace, and confidence. When I persist through pain AND get the help I need. Whatever it is, we can do it. : @janaherzogphoto . . . . #trailrunning #ultrarunning #wmwranglers #utahisrad #deadhorseultra #trailandultra #runnerscommunity #runformentalhealth #trailsisters #beUTAHful #running #runutahrun #moab #mindfulfam #ocdawareness

I used to suffer from body dysmorphia and I’d pick my body APART. Since moving on from that I see myself in a different light and my relationship with food and fitness has changed dramatically. There used to be days where I’d eat only 800 calories while counting every single one, and work out 3 times that day to ensure I was burning twice as much as I was consuming. . On others I’d binge until I was sick and feel so shameful afterward I’d get rid of it and workout through the night. I have to be careful when I get deep into fitness because of my past tendency to obsess and overdo it but now I workout for physical and mental health, I eat intuitively, and I enjoy my cheat days too. if you haven’t signed up for my week of wellness course hit the link in my bio - I talk about fitness and nutrition and how to even it out and create a sustainable path forward. . . . . #fitness #movementformentalhealth #mentalhealth #mentalwellness #getfit #fitforlife #fitnessformentalhealth #exercise #getmoving #holisticwellness #wellnesscoach #wellnesscoaching #mentalwellnesscoach #lifecoaching #yogalife #mentalhealthspeaker #selflove #selfcare #liftweightsformentalhealth #runformentalhealth #mindsetmotivation #eatingdisorderrecovery #fitnessmotivation
