I'm so happy for you and a lot of what you said resonated with me <3 As I get older I'm understanding that I don't need to be small and skinny or have a tiny head to be able to wear baggy clothes, I just need to take care of myself, be healthy and love myself <3 Thank you for writing this and congratulations!!!!!!!

I started running (and actually enjoying it) fairly recently! I love how freeing it is and how much more confident it makes me. Because it is just me and my body, and i love the comfort of knowing that i can rely on my two legs to take me from point a to point b.

It's incredible how far our body will take us if we learn to listen to it. I love that you started to enjoy running! It's such a therapeutic practice. Thanks for reading!

I LOVE this! Congratulations on running the half!

"Running has also let me know this new city I inhabit, find hidden gems, and learn about new corners of the city that I wouldn’t find otherwise." - I can't tell you how much I relate to this.

Te leo y me identifico tanto con lo que señalas. Sanar mi relación con mi cuerpo es una de las cosas más difíciles que me ha pasado. Crecimos en un lugar obsesionado con la delgadez y cierta belleza inalcanzable para algunas de nosotras. Romper los estándares de belleza bajo los cuales me moví durante tanto tiempo ha sido retador pero liberador. Gracias por poner esto en palabras y por mostrar esta parte vulnerable tuya. Abrazos 🤍

Gracias por leerme y por tus palabras. Yo también me identifico con lo que compartes y espero que algún día nos podamos liberar por completo de estos estándares imposibles de la sociedad. Un abrazote de vuelta <3
