Partial Plantar Plate Tear Injury Update: From Sidelined to Finish Lines!

Laura BowersMay 15, 2018March 27, 2019

First off, to anyone who has left comments on previous blog posts or emailed me privately, I owe you a huge apology for responding late. That was a shitty thing to do. Yes, I said shitty. Because it was. And sure, I’ve been very burned out and busy this year, but that’s no excuse. So …

April Progress Report and Injury Update

Laura BowersApril 25, 2017March 27, 2019

My Partial Plantar Plate Tear Injury: The Full Scoop

Laura BowersApril 13, 2017September 12, 2021

Originally published on April 13, 2017. I haven’t been able to run in eight months. Eight. Long. Frustrating. Months. Another thing I haven’t done during this time is a good job blogging about my partial plantar plate tear injury. I’ve given Coping with Injury tips, and given a few updates, and did some videos on YouTube, …

We’re now IN for the Disneyland 5k!!

Laura BowersMarch 10, 2017March 10, 2017

But we were both a little bummed over the 5k being sold out, …

January Injury Update: New hip for Bob, new hope for me!

Laura BowersJanuary 28, 2017March 27, 2019

Oh, what a difference a couple of weeks can make! As I mentioned in my last Injury Update post, I’ve been rather depressed from a combination of being injured, out of shape, and sick. (And I wasn’t afraid to talk about it, either!) Something wonderful happened on Day 7, however: Jackey, Rob, and I registered for for …

Injury Update: Disney’s Princess Half and Dopey 2018!

Laura BowersJanuary 12, 2017August 17, 2021

Not to sound super whiny or anything … but my year so far hasn’t been great. Between a nasty sinus infection that still has me hacking up funny things and a migraine, I’ve been mostly sick. And stressed, since my husband is getting a hip replacement next Tuesday and we’re SO NOT prepared! Add to …

  • Jumping in on the tail end of #PrincessWeek to show love to these amazing gals who changed my life! ✨💖✨
✨
Fun Fact: Before the 2014 #TowerofTerror race, I hadn’t gone on a vacation with girlfriends in over 20 years and I was still mourning the loss of a dear friend. So when @sarahud5 and @shannon_mcintosh42 invited me to join their group on a runDisney adventure … OMG. I was beyond excited!! 🥰
✨
And nervous. 😳 What if they didn’t like me?? I was so worried about making a bad impression that I was careful to hide my crazy, staying on my absolute best behavior. I was neat and never late, always the first to be ready. I did multiple courtesy flushes, volunteered for the sleeper sofa, and tried my best not to curse … emphasis on TRY 🤣.
✨
Turned out, however, we were all wonderfully crazy and they accepted me, flaws and all, late or cursing. 🥰 Then came along @winter720 and @jennalynjaeger making our Princess group complete!! 👑 And throughout my runDisney journey, I’ve met so many other awesome people and made countless memories I’ll always cherish! ❤️
✨
So now I can’t wait for my 12th year of the #PrincessHalfMarathon with my roomies, (except Steph, sniff 😢) and so many other dear friends! 👑 And ladies, I’ll try to stop being late all the time … emphasis on TRY. 🤣

We had such an amazing adventure last weekend with the kids!! Lots of time on the water … my happy place … with @asapbrocy fishing and crabbing with his dad and @tay_tayann._ as my new paddle board buddy!! 🛶 
🔹
I also tried paddle board yoga for the first time … with tons of jellyfish in the water. 😳 Do. Not. Fall. 🤣 But my new @serenelifesupboard handled like a boss, even in the choppy water! I’m so glad I bought it on Amazon prime day!! 💙
🔹
I hope you’re having an amazing summer!!
