✨ Half Marathon #24 ✨ This race weekend had a ✨ Half Marathon #24 ✨ This race weekend had a major plot twist before it even started… and for a minute, I honestly didn’t think I’d even make it to the start line 😅 But somehow it all turned around, and it ended up being one of those races I’ll never forget. The kind that reminds you to trust your training, stay in the moment, and just keep going 💛 Not every race has a smooth lead-up… but sometimes those are the ones that surprise you the most. ➡️ Full recap is up on the blog or HERE: https://bit.ly/4df6c2X ➡️ And yes… there might be a PR involved 😉 #curlycraftymom #halfmarathoner #racedayrecap #runninglife #womenwhorun #runnerlife
✨ A few little finds that would make the sweetes ✨ A few little finds that would make the sweetest Mother’s Day gifts ✨ I love finding simple things that just make life feel a little more elevated… and these have all been on repeat for me lately: 💛 @BlissyBrand Silk Pillowcase I’ve been sleeping on this and waking up with smoother hair and skin… plus it feels SO luxurious. It doesn’t pull on your skin or absorb your skincare like cotton does. Use code CHERISHMOM for 35% off! 🌸 Flower Energy by Jenny Barker @jennybarkertheflowerdoctor @magicalblooms @runningpressbooks Such a beautiful book all about the meaning behind flowers and how to create arrangements that bring peace, joy, and intention into your space. ✨ @EverSkincare Youthful Quattro Peptide Face & Eye Serum This has been my little “facelift in a bottle.” It helps smooth and firm my skin and is made without parabens or synthetic fragrances. 🫶 @trilastinskincare Nourishing Body Oil I’ve been using this for extra hydration and smoother skin… it’s lightweight, non-greasy, and just makes my skin feel so soft. 🥤 @FieldsGreat Plant-Based Protein My go-to lately after runs or busy mornings… 30g protein, 5g fiber, 0g sugar and it actually tastes creamy (not chalky at all!). Such a fun mix of beauty, wellness, and everyday little luxuries 💛 #AD #PamperMomBBxx #BabbleBoxx #BlissyBrand #WellnessRoutine
🌸 April Friday Five 🌸 This month felt so fu 🌸 April Friday Five 🌸 This month felt so full in the best way… a mix of family time, running, and those little everyday moments that just make you pause and smile 💛 Here’s a peek at life lately… 💗 1. Sweet family moments We had the loveliest Easter, celebrated my dad turning 86 (!!), and enjoyed some really special time together. Those are the moments that mean the most. 🌮 2. What’s next… I’m jumping into a short 5K training cycle (pray for me 😅). It’s not my favorite distance, but I’m ready for a new challenge… especially with tacos + margs waiting at the finish line 🌮🍹 ✨ 3. Little joys lately A really good book (or two), a new hummus obsession, the cutest Jellycats, and trying to protect my garden from hungry squirrels 😂 it’s the little things right now. April, you were a good one 💐 Tell me… what was a highlight from your month? 💕Read more here: https://bit.ly/42n7uCH or link in profile! #curlycraftymom #FridayFive #AprilRecap #LifeLately #RunnerLife #SpringVibes
