KetoRunningMama Website

- January 23, 2018

If you are interested more in my story, please click on the link below. It will take you to my website where I share more of my story and how I came to be the KetoRunningMama. My story is one of overcoming. When I was initially diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, I thought that the life that I was used to leading was over. I thought that I would have to accept that I was limited now. I was afraid that I would not be able to live the life for which I have worked so hard. It turns out, that God has greater plans than I do....and this awful diagnosis gave me the push that I needed to reclaim my health.

Her topic was the amount of sugar in the drinks that we drink.

The nutritionist works for Children's Hospital in our area. She reported that Type II Diabetes used to be a disease that affected mostly adults. Now, they are seeing more and more young people being diagnosed with Type II Diabetes. I know that I have seen this...

Impostor Runner

- March 31, 2018

If you are a runner, no matter how experienced you may be, you know that there are some days when you feel like an impostor, a fake, a fraud. It doesn't matter the speed with which you have run in the past, the distances that you have put in, the races that you have run, the friends that you have surrounded yourself with who also run...there are simply some days that you feel like you have never run a day of your life..and now you have to go out for a long run...and you just think that you can't. I, truthfully, have been having a lot of those days. And here is why: I have always trained for big runs in the summer when I don't work. I did train for a half marathon in the dead of winter one year, but my babies were little then. I did not have to run the taxi-cab service that I provide for my children to do their sports and activities every night of the week like I do now. Training in the winter has been hard for me, but I have to keep in perspective that I ...
