Vitamins A, D, E, K

False. Omega-3 fatty acids are anti-inflammatory. The hormone-like compound, Eicosanoid, found in Omega-3 fatty acids is responsible for the relaxing of blood vessels [anti-inflammation].

Keeping a mental image of the Golden Gate to get me through the remainder of this insane week. A few more long strides to go…

    Oh my gosh, SF has the greatest food in the world. I wish I could remember the name of the place where I used to get my Indian food when I lived in the city but I completely forget. I know it’s in The Mission though!

    Good luck! You are going to kill this race!

    I walked the bridge once and it was wonderful! My favorite place in SF to eat is Cha Cha Cha – a Spanish/Mexican/Cuban place with the best sangria and quesadillas!

    YAY for San Fran! I can’t wait. I can’t possibly pick just one favorite food memory from SF. I have been there so many times and every time is just as delicious as the last!!

    SF is the BEST! I live about an hour from there. I LOVE going to little hole-in-the-wall type places off the embarcadero. Have a wonderful time!

    TARTINE! http://www.tartinebakery.com/ It is probably two miles at the most from Union Square… a simple run, a longer walk, or take the “F” streetcar on Market Street (it’s above ground the whole way) and then walk down Guerrero to 16th Street.

    I took nutrition and love reading your mini nutrition quizzes! So fun :) Hah, I am a nerd!
    I am currently tapering right now, and I am focusing on my mindset and continuing to think positive about the race! My parents used to live in SF before I was born, but I’ve never been. Have fun!

    You are going to have an amazing race this weekend. Be aware: at the start in the city, it can get warm, but you’ll make a turn into the Presidio after you see the GG Bridge and the temps dropped last year. Have a layer you can wrap around your waist to take on and off if you need to.

    You’re going to do great! Enjoy it – there is lots to do. I’ll be at the Run Like a Mother talk in the center of the expo at 9:30am on Saturday.

#happynewyear
❷⓿❷⓿ - moved clear across the country to ❷⓿❷⓿

- moved clear across the country to a new state for the second time
- hopped from one AirBNB to the next for 6 weeks while looking for a house to call home
- made new friends, virtually & IRL
- binge watched more TV shows than I can recall
- leveled up as an entrepreneur: hitting milestones with my virtual assistant and @beautycounter businesses
- voted for a new president 
- ascended new trails and explored alpine lakes of the Pacific Northwest 
- adapted: to Zoom holidays, takeout, and masked faces becoming the (temporary) norm

This challenging year was all about appreciating the little things while living through some really BIG things. 2020 had more than a few lessons to teach us all. Through a pandemic, pivotal change in presidency, and loud cry for human rights, I see very clearly how privileged I am. It was the year to let go of plans and lean in to a new perspective. 

After all, hindsight is ②⓪②⓪.

Best thing about 2020... for me, it’s been relationships - virtual and IRL.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the goals that I set for 2020 was to make one new local friend in Seattle (seriously something I wrote down as I began the new year moving across the country). While I’m happy to say that I did so (during a pandemic), I feel fortunate for the virtual friendships that developed, too.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ve gotta take a second to give a shoutout to my newest soul sista @weeksofwonder. You helped me get after it during my second year of entrepreneurship with a hefty dose of #2020 mayhem. 🙏🏼⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Wendy and I met here on IG, and what started as a business relationship and accountability partner has turned into a special bond that transcends any walkie-talkie or social media app. This creative spirit has not only inspired me to get after it and dream bigger as an entrepreneur, but in the same way has encouraged me to honor rest and play: whether it’s giving each other kudos on Strava for tackling a run, building badass business plans and packages, or simply holding space to share the wins and the many woes, personally and professionally, of a memorable year. Having Wendy in my corner has led to some serious momentum and a sense of consistent community.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
2020 has been a shit show, but it delivered GRL PWR 👊🏻⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We want to hear from YOU: Who has been your supportive soul sister through the ups and downs of 2020? ⁣⁣
