Beerwah @ Daybreak Marathon 🍍 Who doesn’t love a 3am start on a Sunday?! One of the highlights of this morning is most definitely that @markrunsaround took this trophy preso shot in “food mode” 🥘😂 Nailed it Mark. Thanks. Others include: 🍍 Having the courage to run a trail marathon with no Garmin/no recording device whatsoever. A little celebration of my almost one year anniversary on the unbelievable SWAP team. Anyone who knows how dependent I used to be on my Garmin knows this is a BIG DEAL! I LOVED the freedom of it and will defo race that way again 🦄 Seriously joyful running. 🍍 Good karma being repaid in spades when earlier in the race I backtracked to take a fellow runner who was cramping some salty crisps I remembered I had in my pack after I’d passed him. Only for me to spend the last 15kms in hideous pain with feet and leg cramps that sent me to the ground on numerous occasions - and to have so many lovely people help me get back on my feet - what a community this trail running tribe is 🙏🏻 🍍 And of course, the checkpoint hugs & the general cheeriness of the vollies standing out in the rain 🙏🏻 It was a super challenging day out there and I loved seeing everyone rock it amidst the slip and slide conditions! How good was that rain though 💃🏻 ☔️ Now for 🛁 🍷 😴 #runqueensland #beerwahatdaybreak #marathon #trailmarathon #runhappy #SWAP #SWAPteam #runfree #waaultra #timetoplay #trailsisters #trailrun #squirrelsnutbutter #trailrunning #trailchix #outdoorwomen #getoutside

Crazy to think it’s one week already since I was riding down a mountain, layered up like a chilly little turtle 😂 Time, why you go so fast?! 🏔 And tomorrow, Beerwah @ Daybreak marathon - who else is coming to share some trail joy on two feet? 🙋🏻‍♀️ 📸 @wanaka_bike_tours #helibike #helibikewanaka #wanaka #pisarange #wanakabiketours #mtb #mountainbike #mtbwomen #mtblife #mountains #mountaintime #adventurequeen #explore #outdoorwomen #outdoors #getoutstayout #downhill #snow #gopro #newzealand #nz #smilesformiles #squirrelsnutbutter #purenz #travelplaylive #nzmustdo #adventuremore #onelifeliveit #challengeyourself #allthegearnaeidea

When you open up your training log, only to discover a surprise full day of rest 😳😫 Cue extra time on the beach before coffee 🏖 ...even if I did have to “apply tropical filter” this morning 🤫#restdaybrags #restday #restdaymode #beachlife #beachculture #beach #Coolum #sunshinecoast #sunrise #outdoors #wymtm #outsideisfree #wanderoften #ocean #oceanswim #getoutside #earlymorning #surf #waves #budgysmuggler #smugglettes #australia #swim #morning #firstbaycoolum #strongnotskinny #vitaminsea #saltwater #outdoorwomen #gopro

January - never contemplated mountain biking. April - bought a bike. December - went helibiking. 100% only possible thanks to our lessons with @hitbikes_mtb_coaching and the endless patience of our guide, Dan at @wanaka_bike_tours What a rad day out - and here’s just a minute slice of it! 🤘🏻 #helibike #helibikewanaka #wanaka #pisarange #wanakabiketours #mtb #mountainbike #mtbwomen #mtblife #mountains #mountaintime #adventurequeen #explore #outdoorwomen #outdoors #getoutstayout #downhill #snow #gopro #goproanz #newzealand #nz #smilesformiles #purenz #travelplaylive #nzmustdo #adventuremore #onelifeliveit #challengeyourself #allthegearnaeidea

Dreamy light at the trailhead this morning 💫 Not such a dreamy run, but hey, you win some, you lose some, and I’m forever thankful for the gifts of movement and quiet mornings amongst the trees 🌲 #runhappy #trailrun #trailrunning #run #getoutside #getoutstayout #outdoors #trailsisters #gopro #running #runstrong #runfree #outdoors #adventuretime #onelifeliveit #adventure #outdoorwomen #garminau #parklands #sunshinecoast #trailandultra #offroad #multisport #forest #earlymorning #trail #bush #trees #goproanz #ultratraining

Mountains or ocean? 🤷🏻‍♀️ After all of our NZ adventures I was feeling ready to move to the mountains... but then I come home - and sunrise ocean dips in crystal clear 24C water are pretty perfect too 💕 What a hashtag blessed life, hey 😜 On another note - that haze is due to bush fires burning around here - let’s hope a little cooler weather and rain settles it down soon #beachlife #beachculture #beach #blessed #Coolum #sunshinecoast #sunrise #outdoors #wymtm #outsideisfree #wanderoften #ocean #oceanswim #getoutside #earlymorning #bodysurf #surf #waves #budgysmuggler #smugglettes #australia #swim #morning #secondbaycoolum #vitaminsea #saltwater #outdoorwomen #morningmeditation
