#unbothered
Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In my lane. Focused. Flourishing. I’m back from covid, classes resuming, and not posting because of that.
With the picture on the left I’ll hear things like “trans women are so beautiful,” “you have every right to be who you are,” “you were definitely meant to be a woman,” and “you are a woman now, why even say you are transgender.” The picture on the right is a different story. Y’all will say things like “not fair, born a man and still a man,” “I’m all for you being yourself but you shouldn’t be competing against women,” “why don’t you start a league for transgenders,” and “just stick to wearing lingerie and leave the sports to the real women.” Those are all actual replies I’ve received. Whats even more insane is most men who want to comment and speak up about trans women in sports don’t even watch or follow women’s sports! People just want to interject their opinion and bias into things they think need their opinion. Rather than trying to isolate and exclude trans individuals from society, focus on your life. Would you want to be excluded or deemed unworthy because of who you are? Stop judging people based on their race, gender, sexuality, gender identity, religion, nationality, etc…live and let live already, damn! ———————————————————
I’ve said this over and over…the fears and stigmas around trans athletes are false! The Olympics have had a policy in place since 2004 allowing trans athletes to compete, name a single trans Olympian…I’ll wait….
———————————————————
The few trans athletes who have had success, have done so because of the hard work and training they put into their sport, period! If it was an unfair, biological advantage, all the other trans athletes who compete would be winning as well. ———————————————————
My existence should not be on the DL, for you to fetishize, or limited to “trans only” leagues, groups, or events. Stop trying to “other” me. I’m here, I’m going to pursue my dreams, and live my life…that is not going to change based on your unsolicited opinions!

The best advice I can offer anyone is to stop worrying what others think or may think of you, to live your life authentically, to the fullest, all while loving and embracing who you are!
———————————————————
I get a lot of messages from people asking me when I transitioned and if it’s too late for them to do so. I also get a lot of people saying, “I’ll never be passable” or “my family and friends will never accept me.” ———————————————————
Being true to who you are in a world that seems to hate and fear us, can be terrifying so I understand the concerns. However, the hate you have to flush out the most, is your own. Stop beating yourself up, feeling shame and guilt for being “different.” The journey to authenticity has no age limit and “passability” is a false construct based on outward appearances of vanity. True beauty shines from within and is reflected through your smile and your heart. Love and embrace who you are…even the flaws!! Also, if your current family and friends won’t accept you, you’ll find a new, chosen family that will embrace you with open arms. Let go of the fears and chose to live your life

me exiting the ICA facility after being recorded several times and losing my gun after trying to lure a guard away
No one can know I got Fungi’s…player…(aka my friend Logan) for secret santa this year but I wanted to post this somewhere I had to make fanart of Fungi as one of my favorite memes
(I’m getting this printed with a risograph hence the wild colors)
Someone I know recently told me all “real runners” wear shorts in the dead of winter. Well, I’m sorry, but if wearing 6 layers and a massive scarf in a race makes me not a tough enough runner then please disregard the fact I ran 26.2 miles one month ago ‘cause clearly I missed the “real runner” memo I’ll gladly keep my hand warmers and double leggings over being “tough” any time. (#fashion ♀️ jk I literally didn’t pack enough for “feels like -5”) #twopairsofgloves #pompomonfleek #unbothered .
(PS the person who said that lives in MO - looks like everyone around me gathered that NH in 8 degrees means covered knees & faces, although the winner did wear a tank top ☃️ #balaclava #baklava)

“I trained.”
I said that to my running pal last week and felt a wave of relief.
I trained, consistently, for the past 16 weeks, and when you’ve done the work, that’s something those nagging fears that creep into our minds can never take away from us.
I trained for a marathon to fall in love with running again, and that’s something no
higher mileage
hectic weekends
busy work weeks
pacing practice
faltered tempos
strength training
cross training
rest days
competition
past PRs
future goals
expectations
what if’s
what’s possible’s
can take away from me.
I trained, to run unbothered through the uncomfortable, and that’s something no
taper scaries
hydration
fueling
travel exhaustion
back pain
foot pain
chafing
discomfort
unplanned factors
race day nutrition
race day weather
race day anxieties
excuses
can take away from me.
I trained. I ran 500 miles and fell in love with running again along the way. So now I think it’s time for a victory lap: just 26.2 to go. #unbothered (at Boston, Massachusetts)
