Hi! I’m Verenetta =  Riley’s Mommy!

Riley’s 13 (almost 14 as she would say) and she’s my one and only!?

If you’re just getting started with running I wish you the best!

??‍♀️??

I’m also a new runner. I owe it all to my man ?

Melvin has been a runner most of his life and he introduced me to it in 2017. I was reluctant and really didn’t want to…. But with his coaching I was able to run my first race a few weeks later. Running has taught me a lot about perseverance and determination. I am pushing forward, running and learning how to balance it all with love, grace and “real life” along the way.

My running goal is to run a 8 minute mile. I have gotten it down to 10 minutes but it mostly averages 11 minutes a mile.

I also have a 10k and half marathon on my running bucket list… wish me luck.

I’m truly thankful and blessed! My life is pretty darn good. I don’t have to run away from my problems, I just do it for fun!
