How long have you been a Fit4Mom instructor?

I started instructing back in June of this year, but I have been striding with F4M TXK since the beginning!

Who is striding with you?

Gibson (3 years this month-cue ALL of the tears) and Miller (8 months)

What is your favorite Stroller Strides location?

I've always loved the lake views at Bringle, but I have recently discovered the full walking trail at Spring Lake Park and I LOVE it!

What is your favorite Stroller Strides move?

Some would think it's the icky shuffle because it somehow finds a way into every workout, BUT I love any arm move using a band--namely a good row!

What is your ideal playdate?

I love the simple playdates at a playground with an iced coffee in hand! The kids love it, and it's so nice to sit and talk with my friends while they play!

What is your go-to coffee order?

I've really been loving the iced lavender latte from Local Habit and the 1/4 sweet iced blondie from 7Brew!

What is your favorite meal?

A classic favorite for me is steak, mashed potatoes, and brussel sprouts (made by my husband)--but this time of year also calls for chili, which I am beyond ready for! (also made by my husband--are you sensing a pattern here?)

What is your ideal MNO?

Some of my favorite Mom's Nights Out have been a simple girls night grabbing dinner and drinks. It's such great quality time with friends!

What would you do with a day of free babysitting?

It's a toss up between running errands at my own pace in a silent car, or having a full out spa day followed by a nap!

What would you say to a mom contemplating Fit4Mom?

Just do it! There are so many reasons not to--the kids are napping, you don't know anyone, etc. etc...but you will NOT regret stepping out of your comfort zone! It is SO much more than a workout. I am beyond grateful for the women I've met through FIT4MOM, and I am so thankful for these friendships!
