Rise.Run.Retreat 2018

Rise Run Retreat 2016

I looked around at the women surrounding me as we lined up to take a photo before facing the daunting hills of our half marathon and was filled with joy and gratitude. When I started blogging two years ago, I never anticipated forming friendships with so many inspiring, authentic, intelligent, and talented women as I have.  How can I even put the Rise.Run.Retreat into words? The weekend, the friendships, and the running were refreshing, inspiring, enlightening, heart-warming, ...
