It’s International Women’s Day!

This one goes out to all the women who inspire us to be stronger and better in every way.

Shout out the women who inspire you in the comments below 👇🏼

Sometimes you own the race, sometimes the race owns you.

It’s not a matter of if that happens, but when. How will you respond? Will you push through?

We had runners encounter all sorts of obstacles this weekend… physical, emotional, and mental. No two obstacles were the same, but they were all hit head on and conquered.

Embrace every step of your journey - whether owning or being owned by moments of adversity along the way - because these experiences shape both runner & person alike.

Chin up! You made it to the weekend!

Show of hands... who's Conquering the Rock this weekend?!
