Diva's Half Marathon Race Recap

Hello there!

My name is Virjinia and welcome to With Purpose and Kindness! With Purpose and Kindness is a website where I share all my health and fitness tips with a bits of humor and self-care mixed in! Here at With Purpose and Kindness, I strive to lift others up and celebrate the little moments in life.

I’m from Houston, Texas. I am a tiny runner with big dreams! I started running about four years ago with the goal to finish 5k. As soon as I finished I was hooked! I challenged myself to run a half marathon the next year. I overcame injuries and rough spots and I am proud to say that I completed my half marathon! This inspired me to keep going.  I have since completed two marathons, countless half marathons and other races. I may or may not be eyeing an ultra marathon some time soon. You never know what I get up to! I also have a Peloton bike and treadmill so you can find me on the leaderboard as MrsRunRideSlay. In the past year I’ve also picked up CrossFit and I always love a good weight lifting session. Trying out new things is something I love to do so check in often and see what else I’m up to!

Here are a few of my favorite posts:
