Hi! My name is Betsy and I consider myself to be an everyday warrior.

Although I do not have any experience in “warfare” in the traditional sense, I have certainly had my fair share of battles  throughout my life as well as the ones we all face on a daily basis. And even though I am not always successful, I try to approach each day with strength, determination and happiness.

I am a mother to one child. A boy who is 5. He is very opinionated, stubborn and demanding. But he is also very loving, caring and inquisitive. I enjoy seeing the world through his eyes!

I am recently divorced. My son’s Dad and I are trying to navigate our new lives and be the best co-parents we can be to our son. It is certainly a work in progress.

I have been a runner on and off since high school, but I  became more serious about it at the end of 2009. I have completed many different types and lengths of races. Everything from 5k’s to half marathons and even a Tough Mudder! Mud runs are my current running obsession! What’s not to love about them? Running+Mud+Obstacles = One heck of a great time!

Running is what I do to stay sane and through running I have discovered just how strong I am! If you are not already a runner, I promise you that running will change your life!

I am a friend who stands by during life’s ups and downs. I am a good listener and I am very trustworthy. I am also a lot of fun to be around.

I am a huge country music fan and one of Garth Brooks biggest fans.

I can not get through the day without at least 2 pieces of chocolate. And some ice cream. (Just another reason why I run!)
