Fit Friend-Jessica Ralston

I'm not sure if you know this about me, but I AM NOT A RUNNER!

Unless there's a fire, my kids need rescuing, or there's a wild animal chasing me in the mountains…you will not see me running.

I have never had the desire to RUN, but if I'm being 100% honest I have ALWAYS wanted one of those medals you get after you finish a race! 🏅 I've asked myself many times over the past five years if I thought I had it in me. If I could actually become a runner.

Well...the opportunity has presented itself and as much as it’s been a struggle to put on my running shoes, I have decided to truly CHALLENGE myself in a whole new way.

I have committed to train for a 5K!

I'm not sure this is actually something I want to do, 🤣 but I am beginning to get excited about the idea of doing something I've never done before! Mostly to prove to myself that I'm capable of doing hard things.

However, there is a catch… I NEED YOU TO JOIN ME!

I know for a fact that there is no way I can do this by myself without my tribe supporting me along the way!

I love my at-home workouts, but especially in this season of COVID and a time where the weather is cooling down a bit, I need some time outside of my house!

I’m really looking forward to this challenge, and a challenge it will definitely be!

I will train using an amazing program that combines running and cross-training.

I can't wait to see what my body can do in my first ever virtual 5K.

Here are some details:
🏃 This is a 30 day program
🏃 Filmed in English and Spanish
🏃 Strength workouts combined with running!
🏃 Can be done on the treadmill or outside
🏃 Take your trainer with you - audio or video workouts to help you get the most out of your run
🏃There are 3 calendars: one for new runners to learn to run a 5K in 30 days; one for advanced runners to help cross train and improve time and distance; and a time crunch calendar if you need to stick to 30 minutes a day!

Anyone interested in joining me in my training and 5K?

If you want to check out the program that I'll be using to train just shoot me a message and I'll send it your way! You can try the sample workout for free!

Hopefully I'll have a few fellow wanna-be runners up for the challenge…oh and if you are an actual legit runner…we'll take you too! 😉 I am sure I'll need ALL of your support!

I’ll be officially starting on October 5th for my EXCLUSIVE test group and October 19th for everyone! Interested?

In my virtual wellness community, we focus on a variety of areas-but NUTRITION is one of THE most important things! (Which I’ve only been so-so with lately, being honest❤️ We did just return from an incredible vacation!)

But I am so excited that there are 2 very different customizable nutrition plans that my clients get to choose from when they commit to a journey with me. No dieting-only sustainable lifestyle here!

Soooo...I thought it was a mistake when I learned that BOTH nutrition plans will be included in our wellness bundles starting on July 7th!!! I don't think many people realize just how valuable that is! Have you ever paid for a nutritionist or hired someone to make your meals? All of these things are an investment (as they should be) so just imagine if you committed to your health and wellness journey today to learn that you can try not one but two nutrition plans! It's absolutely amazing!!

For those that are ready to jump in with me...we’ll get started together for July, here's the quick lowdown. All month long you can except:

🌞 30 day podcast challenge
🌞 Weekly meal plans
🌞 Bonus recipe PDFs (for everything from summer coffees to summer cocktails)
🌞 Utilizing over 700+ workouts to find something that works for you … in as little as 20 minutes a day!
🌞 My favorite supplements for fueling our bodies
🌞 Focusing on real foods from all the food groups - in the right proportions
🌞 Supporting each other daily in our private online community AND....wait there's more...

• Daily Motivation, Nutrition Tips and Inspiration
• Bi-Weekly Check-in Calls
• Access to our Virtual Gym
• Monthly Prizes/Giveaways

And lastly, we teach balance. We don't cut out food groups because we are here to enjoy life! If you want to work towards the happiest + healthiest version of you this summer, without sacrificing fun and your favorite summer treats, we should chat!

It’s always more fun with friends! So FOLLOW ME, we’ll climb over the obstacles in front of us and do this together! ❤️

COVID-19 😳

I’m not sure about you all, but this weather and being stuck at home is really trying to trigger me into some old, not so healthy habits! I was just talking with one of my besties and we were teasing about how COVID-19 could be the equivalent to our freshman 15 if we’re not careful! 🤣

Anyone else finding themselves wanting to snack when they normally don’t? Perhaps taking several trips into the kitchen or pantry during the day? How about wanting to drink to numb the overwhelming feelings?

It’s taking some serious focus, self talk, and self discipline for me to not ruin the results I just got from the Ultimate Reset! 🌱

One thing that I am beyond grateful for right now is my superfoods shake! Not only does it taste like dessert, but it’s the healthiest thing I put into my body on a daily basis! It’s nutritional value is equal to eating 6 salads! Not to mention that it’s full of superfoods, vitamins, minerals, prebiotics, probiotics and so much more!!! 🙌🏻 Ummm YES Please! It also helps me stay on track with my health and fitness goals by providing me with the nutrients my body needs and totally curbs my sweet tooth. Right now during these crazy, constantly changing times I’m super grateful to have this in my pantry!

Day 1,636 ✅

CHEERS! 😘
