I used to just run for the love of being outdoors & the wonderful endorphins. When I discovered I was pregnant & my mom was diagnosed with cancer, I realized that these two precious people were depending on me and I couldn't take care of them unless I took care of myself. I started making small changes that have developed into a lifestyle & it seems the list of motivators to maintain this lifestyle are growing exponentially. Now I cannot imagine an inactive life without exercise or healthy food

Strength, health, endurance, speed, longevity, being able to keep up with my son, expanding skills & abilities, looking amazing, feeling amazing, being a good steward, preventative medicine, quality of life. The list goes on!
