Community Members of the Week: March 24 – 30, 2018

Mud Run Guide hit a huge milestone this week thanks to you all as a community. We surpassed over 100K followers across our social media channels. Thank you to all of you in this incredible community for helping us surpass this milestone.

Bonnie Wilson our social media maven combed through hundreds of tags on our social media and picked two athletes to showcase this week. This week we highlight accomplishments in both the world of obstacle racing and in the Ninja Warrior world.

We first highlight Cliff Alapa Jr. (@alapa.ocr) on his recent Spartan Race accomplishment. Congrats on your Hurricane Heat finish and your son's fourth-place finish in the kid's race, and your wife's first Spartan! The family that races together stays together!

Great weekend at the San Jose Spartan races. HH-130 was great until the hypothermia started setting in (more on that later). Spartan 4-0 took biggest team both days, my son came in 4th in his first Spartan race, Lisa did great in her first Spartan race and I was happy to finish another penalty free Sprint.

This week we also feature Alex Katz (@runnerchic14) celebrating mental health Monday by taking a leap of faith in her training. A great reminder we all need to push ourselves but also take time for self-care in order to stay healthy and balanced. Thanks for the reminder Alex.

Happy #mentalhealthmonday ! . . Sometimes it can feel like life is throwing us more #obstacles than we can handle, and it be really easy to feel #overwhelmed and want to give and let those obstacles (mental or physical) stand in the way of our #goals . It’s ok to take a minute to #breathe , to process what is going on, and to do some #selfcare – recharge your battery. . . But then…sometimes you just need to #taketheleap and trust that you have the #mentalstrength and physical strength to get to where you want to be. You may fall, you may fail…it may take weeks or months or years…it may be as quick as me getting to the other platform in this pic, but trust that eventually you will get there. . . ✨Do something every day to push yourself out of your #comfortzone and chip away at the obstacles you are facing. ✨You can’t always control what happens to you, but you can control how you react to it and how you respond. ✨Stay #motivated because you know what you want. Stay #strong because you are strong. ✨? . . . . . . . #motivationmonday #motivation #fitnessmotivation #americanninjawarrior #anw10 #fitfam #ropeswing #parkour #trusttheprocess #workforit #ocr @ninjawarrior #mentalhealthawareness #athlete #38liveahappylife @myfriendabby #choicetheory #keepfighting #itwillgetbetter #fitnessmodel #mudrunguide
