Family fieldtrips in Oaxaca ❤️!

Yesterday’s Oaxaca Half Marathon was an unforgettable experience with my family out there on the course cheering! Ran a 1:21 on a challenging course of cobblestone streets with 300m of cumulative uphill and most of all, thousands of people cheering every step of the way: Vamos Guero, Si se puede Guero! Had some stomach problems on the last third of the race, so all things considered I’m really happy with my 6th place overall, about a minute from first! Not bad for a #couchpotatoathlete 🛋 🥔

I’m going to throw it back here, to my all time best training partner & coach Jon Ruddy. I contacted Jon a month ago, asking for some training tips, and within a few hours he sent me an entire detailed & annotated personalized training plan in PDF form! As in the photo, Jon is always a step ahead of me, and our collaboration & friendship over the years have been crucial to my progress as an athlete & as a person. So many thanks Jon & may we run together again soon!

Twenty-four hours to the Oaxaca Half-Marathon! 🐌 Hope the month of hard work paid off! 📷: @dcetto

Next time we’ll be here in Santa Elena again, it will be with my family! 🤸🏼‍♂️ #familyfieldtrip

Homestretch! I’m super grateful to have friends to cheer & support on my last interval session before the Oaxaca Half-Marathon! #5daystogo 📷: @dcetto

Riding into the sunset, enjoying the last few weeks in Rancho Santa Elena 🌅

Running intervals at 2,400m altitude is not exactly super fun 🤢, but yesterday I finally completed one of the most crucial workouts of my half-marathon training: the 10 x 1km repeats ⭐️. I had failed twice to complete the 10 repeats🚶🏼, but yesterday it all came together nicely & at a pace I’m really happy about! #tendaystogo 🏃🏼💨

Last night’s sunset was pretty spectacular! 🌄

Tools of war! 🛠 Two weeks left to put the hammer down & see if I can get close to a personal best for the half. #inov8

This is the start of a great relationship 🚲 ❤️

Eighteen days left to get some speed back into these legs before the Oaxaca Half-Marathon💥. It hasn’t been at all easy (especially training at 2,400m of altitude) but I definitely realized that I missed the light & fast part of running!🏃🏼💨

First race of the season ✅ Running 🏃🏼 after Ceci 🚴🏼‍♀️ for the last three days was quite the workout 🤢! We were both floored by the level Women’s Mtn Biking has reached in Mexico 🇲🇽 in the last few years, and we couldn’t ask for a more diverse & fun community of girls to spend race weekends with! Now it’s back to the drawing board & hopefully we’ll see you all in El Ajusco before we leave for Canada 🇨🇦!

When you say orange chicken orange chicken 18 times in a row & your dream suddenly comes true! #alreadyregretit #beurk

I’ve been busy lately, training for my upcoming half-marathon & working on a little project: establishing running Strava segments for Rancho Santa Elena! There are now over 10 running courses and more are coming! Next time you visit us, bring your runners & have a go at the records! 📷: @cecicchp

New bike. New possibilities. 🚴🏼‍♀️

Two years of non-stop love ❤️& adventures 🚴🏼‍♀️🏃🏼 with this amazing woman!

The Gutters

Open up your eyes. A sliver of light slides through the window of her tent. She sits up. I’m awake. Good. The sound of rain and nature is intimate in her ears. She stretches her leather boots over her socked feet and rolls onto her knees. It’s early in the morning, it’s the middle of […]
