Finally a pair of shorts that stay out when I run as a plus-size curvy runner!

#LTKfitness #LTKplussize #LTKmidsize

My outfit to run in the rain as a plus-size runner.

#LTKfitness #LTKplussize

Here’s a caption you could use:

My favorite running outfit as a slow, curvy runner 🤍

If an outfit is uncomfortable, I won’t wear it. And if I won’t wear it, I won’t run.

My go-to combination:
• A supportive sports bra that doesn’t chafe
• High-waisted leggings that stay put
• Comfortable running shoes with plenty of cushioning
• A lightweight top that keeps me cool

Nothing fancy. Nothing complicated. Just pieces that help me feel comfortable and confident when I head out the door.

As a slow runner, I’ve learned that the best running outfit isn’t about looking like a runner. It’s about feeling good enough to keep showing up.

#LTKfitness #LTKplussize

A few years ago I drove past runners and thought I could never do what they do. Today I’m pinning on a race bib and running a 10k « just like that ». Here’s exactly how I prep and why you don’t need to be an athlete to start. 💙#slowrunner #curvyrunner #slowrunnersclub #runningjourney #momrunner

What I currently run in.

Because the easier my outfit feels, the easier it is to get out the door 😅

No fancy gear.
Just pieces that make me feel comfortable, supported, and confident.

#LTKplussize #LTKfitness #LTKmidsize

One month out from my 10K.

No PB goals this time.
Just one simple goal: finish strong, enjoy the run, and still be able to walk the 1 km back to my hotel without feeling like I got hit by a truck.

That’s growth too.

#slowrunner #curvyrunner #slowrunnersclub #runningjourney #beginnerrunner

I heard it all.
I kept going anyway.
…good thing I didn’t listen to them.
They don’t get a vote.

#slowrunner #curvyrunner #slowrunnersclub #beginnerrunner #slowrunning

First 10k of 2026 and it was not easy.

I wanted to stop more than once.
My legs were heavy. My mind was louder.

But I didn’t quit.

This is what it actually looks like sometimes.
Not fast. Not pretty. Just showing up and finishing.

Follow me if you’re learning to keep going too.

5:30am run style fit…
Plus-size approved!

#LTKfitness #LTKmidsize #LTKplussize

Mel Robbins said “let them”
so I did

let them think I’m too slow
let them think I don’t look like a runner

I’m still showing up in this body

and that’s enough

you don’t need their approval to start

you just need to show up

comment “let them” if you needed this today 🫶

#slowrunner #slowrunnersclub #runnerslife #beginnerrunner #runningjourney

Started in the rain.
Didn’t feel like going.
Went anyway.
Slow. Wet. Not cute.
And then the rain stopped.
This is what it looks like to keep showing up.
Happy Easter
Follow me for real running

#LTKfitness #LTKmidsize #LTKplussize

Sunny but still freezing.
Layered up, shared my snack, peed twice… and still showed up.
Short run, no pressure, just getting it done.

Lunch break run ☀️
Worked from home, saw the sun, went out for my short easy run from my 10k plan.
Nothing fancy. Just showing up.
This is how it builds.

#slowrunner #curvyrunner #runningjourney #slowrunnersclub #beginnerrunner

#LTKfitness

Week 1, run 1 of my 10K journey.
This is where it starts. I don’t expect to be perfect, not trying to be fast, just consistent.
I’m building a habit.
Because this is how it happens.
One run at a time.

#slowrunner #runningjourney #beginnerrunner #curvyrunner #slowrunnersclub

#LTKfitness

I didn’t stop running… I just stopped forcing it.
For 4 months, I ran once a week when I felt like it. No plan, no pressure.
And honestly… I needed that.
Now I’m starting again, but this time, in a way I can actually stick to.
10K in May, here we go.

Let’s talk about the struggle of finding a sports bra when you’re a curvy runner.

Too tight.
Not supportive enough.
Straps digging in.
And the bounce… we all know the bounce.

I finally found one that is supportive, comfortable, and affordable. And yes… I’ve actually run in it.

If you want the link to this bra, comment BRA and I’ll send you all the details.

Beginner runner essentials that actually make starting easier, not harder.

When I first started running, I thought I needed everything… fancy gear, perfect pace, the “right” body. Turns out the real essentials are simple gear that makes you feel confident enough to show up.

These are my curvy runner approved basics that helped me go from 1-minute intervals to running a half marathon.

Save this list for later and follow along for more beginner running tips.

#LTKfitness #LTKplussize

Curvy runner approved sports bra.

Supportive, comfortable, and actually designed for fuller busts. I’ve personally tested this one on runs and workouts and it holds everything in place without digging in or constantly adjusting.

If you’re tired of sports bras that look cute but don’t actually support you while running… this one is worth it.

#LTKfitness #LTKplussize

I almost convinced myself I didn’t need this.

My treadmill died a year ago.
And I kept telling myself I’d be fine without one.

But after one winter of icy sidewalks, dark mornings, and “I’ll just skip today”… I realized something.

If I want to stay consistent, I can’t depend on perfect conditions.

Building this treadmill felt exactly like running.
You start by questioning your life choices.
You keep going anyway.
And in the end, you’re proud you didn’t quit.

This isn’t about pace.
It’s about showing up.
Even when it would be easier not to.

New era unlocked.
Who’s building something they won’t quit on this year?

Follow along for more of my slow, curvy, determined running journey.

Finally warm enough to run outside and actually enjoy it. These are the pieces I grab when I want to feel comfortable, supported, and not distracted mid run. Nothing fancy, just reliable favorites that work on a curvy body and let me focus on moving instead of adjusting leggings every five minutes.

There are a lot of ways to grow on social media.

Some of them are fast.
Some of them are loud.

This isn’t that.

I’m not faking paces.
I’m not pretending to be someone I’m not.
I’m not building this page on shock value.

I’m building it on honesty.

Slow growth doesn’t scare me.
Losing alignment does.

I’m not here to impress everyone.
I’m here to find my people.

If you’re tired of toxic fitness culture… you’re in the right place.

Tell me, what’s one thing you refuse to fake online? 👇

Woke up at 5:30 on a Sunday.
It felt like -30, so no way I was running outside.

Ran in a parking lot with other people instead.
Great vibes, lots of fun.

And I ran.
That’s the win.

What about you… Would you have gone outside… or found an indoor option too?

What I eat in a day as a runner who works a 9–5 👟
Nothing fancy. Just planning ahead so I can fuel my runs, save money, and avoid fast food when life gets busy.

I’m not chasing perfection — just consistency and meals that actually make me feel good.

What about you? Do you meal prep… or do you just wing it?

Sunday morning run ☀️
The only run of my week… and that’s okay.
5K done, not chasing pace today, just focusing on my breathing.
In through the nose, out through the mouth.
Not always easy. Sometimes messy. Still intentional.
Consistency doesn’t have to be perfect to count.

#LTKfitness #LTKcurves #LTKmidsize

This outfit isn’t about changing my body.
It’s about feeling confident enough to move it.
No pressure. No timelines. Just showing up ❤️
