Zone 2 and Beyond

“Who are you in this moment? Who are you when everything falls apart? Who are you in this pain?” – Sally McRae

Hey! Thanks for stopping by.


I started this page to share my journey of reconnecting with the mountains and the outdoors.


In 2021, I was at my heaviest weight. I was depressed, constantly in pain, and most importantly, I couldn’t keep up with my husky, Thanos. I decided enough was enough and took matters into my own hands. I began working with a trainer and became more mindful of my diet. After 6 months, I reached the summit of Mount St. Helens. Along the way, I’ve created amazing memories on the trails with my huskies and the friends I’ve met. I am always training for the next mountain, the next climb, or the next race, and I continue to push my limits.


I hope my journey inspires you to believe in change, take that first step, and discover what you’re capable of out there in the wild and within yourself.

Mountains

One climb closer to the sky, one summit closer to Denali. Join me on my adventures fueled by dry food and melted snow water.

Races

Running just fast enough to avoid a DNF and just slow enough to avoid glory.

Runs and Hikes

Why walk when you can run? Explore the PNW with me and my huskies on our non-technical, easy Zone 3 runs.
