I enjoy long walks in the woods with snacks and swearing...officially it's called Ultra Running. I also make bad life choices on skis and mountain bikes. I love horror, vinyl, photography, and making a mess.

One of those runs where you think you are following a Strava heat map and instead get lost AF on a snowmobile trail and end up with 8 miles by accident. #trailrunning

Me: I should probably train on road considering my first race this season is a road half. Also Me: #trailrunning

11 miles doing a combo of trail and road. We joke about how my husband drops me off in the woods all the time and I have to find my way back. We think it's funny anyway.... #trailrunning

There is road construction outside our neighborhood and a detour that goes around it. Instead, people are cutting through our streets going super fast. Not me being a petty princess and doing all my speedwork runs right where they're trying to drive through. We don't have sidewalks either. #running

"Hey babe, don't worry about the blood in the grass, it's fake". Totally normal conversations for a horror cosplay right? My super talented kid made me a partial mask so thankfully only my lower half of my face will be awkwardly stained red if today's test has anything to say about it. #cosplay

My first race this season is a road race, but I'm doing as much trail as possible because I only have 2 pairs of Hoka Rincon 3's left and then I will no longer have road shoes that work for me. I spent years trying shoes and then Hoka went and ruined them. #running #trailrunning

It's always a surprise when you start a training block and realize that 5 miles now feels like 3 and you don't even warmup until mile 4. #trailrunning

When the world is in chaos and you could use a hug. I highly recommend the tour. All our kids had a great time and we adopted some very cuddly friends. We love visiting our neighbors. #vermont

Me: I did 10 on Sunday, 4 on trail yesterday, and I'm feeling kind of sore so I'll just do a few chill shakeout miles on trail....immediately gets lost and ends up doing 7 miles. #trailrunning distances may vary.

My 6 year old just came up to me and told me "it's time for the fart party" and proceeds to rip one right next to me. This is why I run.

My attempt at Carl the Cupcake for kiddo's bday may be my super villain origin story. After fighting with my homemade fondant for over an hour, I'm now declaring fondant a swear word. You'll find me in my car telling people to go Fondant themselves. #FNAF #cakewreck

10 miles doing a chill combo of road and trail and I made a new snake friend. I seemed to have been the only runner braving the booty shorts today so I'm going to dub this run. #oldbroadinbootyshorts #running

Ah yes...spring...when one can go from winter running to summer in the span of days. 8 weeks and counting to my first race of the season. #running

9 miles “Maintaining” as Garmin likes to call it. #running

For every decent runfie there exists an appalling amount of ones that look like this. Sometimes the timer just does you dirty. #running #runfie

Distance training has me running to destinations to meet my family. Sometimes this means I’m finishing up my last mile doing loops in parking lots. 9 miles done. #running

It’s a wonder I don’t get more notes home from school.

Me: I noticed something today. I feel like our house has the design esthetic of TGI Fridays, but like more Goth, My husband: So it's TGI Wednesdays?

Spring ski conditions are no joke on my quads. Especially when all 3 of your kids are snowboarders and you have to tow the little one across the flats and uphills. Garmin needs a setting for that. #runcrosstraining #ski

Hill repeat days hit extra hard when your hill goes up a small ski mountain and has views of Vermont. 800+ feet of gain and my quads are screaming. #running #hillrepeats

When you weren’t going to run because you skied this morning, but your 11 year old dog gives you the side eye and then drags you for 2 miles at a speed so fast that you can taste your own lungs. #running #accidentalspeedwork

22 miles doing this and my Garmin has the nerve to demand a threshold run today. Rude. #skiing

A couple mini pours that I did this morning. One flip cup and one 1/2 loom 1/2 straight pour #painting

Running in shorts past people skiing is so March. 10k sorted. #running

7 miles in the wind and finally Garmin has decided to slowly take me off of punishment for last month’s parade of germs. #running #springrace

My first pour today was a disaster, my mix was off and it wasn’t sticking to the canvas. I scraped it and did a straight pour and I am so glad I did. It looks like a snake. First pic was how it started. Second is how it ended. #painting

When you attempt to take a jumping photo after your watch’s suggested workout is super hard and it just mocks you after.

Ah well. Just a fall ultra it is.

Trying to go back to work after being a stay at home mom/fitness instructor is literally impossible. I have a college degree that is useless, not enough references, and a portfolio that is literally in a binder because all my digital files are from 2 computers and 3 kids ago.

Today’s pour started with the loom and went to a straight pour when things started to look bad. Considering how it started, I’m not mad at how it ended. #painting

Today’s pours. One with a loom that has some cool gold starting to show through and one that we picked Loki colors but ended up getting Alligator Loki vibes…which I’m not mad about. #painting

Hundreds of protesters gathered in Waitsfield on Saturday morning to protest Vice President JD Vance, who is visiting Vermont with his family for a ski trip this weekend.

Wow: JD Vance is apparently skiing in Vermont this weekend and the locals aren’t having it. Thousands have lined the streets in protest.

Last one for today. I don’t love the upper bit but I really like the hot pink. #painting

Today was my first time trying a Dutch Pour. I definitely want to keep trying this until I get better. #painting

Shopping at a local grocery store with my husband and 3 kids (2 are teens) and they not only ID’d him for buying non alcoholic beer (normal) they also insisted on seeing mine. I’m 45 and he’s 47 and it’s not real beer. I almost died laughing.

I'm trying to raise my kids with kindness and compassion and then I see the news and I'm just sick and ashamed of the actions of our so called "leaders". Our country is led by monsters.
