Hi there! I’m Elizabeth, the blogger behind My Neon Running Shoes. I am currently a 25 year old stay at home wife and mom to my one year old son Noah. I was born and raised in Houston, Texas. I started running when I was about 12 years old and have been ever since! High school was where I began competing in cross country and track and after graduating high school I headed off to Texas A&M University, home of the fightin’ Texas Aggies! I was also a member of the cross country and track teams there. It was definitely a great experience… one that allowed me to travel, make awesome friendships and meet this handsome man
Meet Joe, my wonderful husband. This picture is from 2008… We look a little different now, Joe has less hair. I kid.
I graduated from A&M in 3 years and went to an accelerated nursing program that allowed students to graduate with a BSN in 12 months. Saying it was hard is an understatement! After I graduated and passed boards and Joe graduated with an engineering degree we embarked on our journey to happily ever after:
Our wedding was on July 10, 2010. After an awesome honeymoon at the Sandals resort in Antigua, we came back to Houston to begin our lives as a married couple. A few months later… to both our surprise… we found out we were expecting! And after a very trying, complicated pregnancy came the best day of my life: November 18, 2011.
Noah was born at 4:41 pm, 6 lbs 1 oz, 19.5 inches long and absolutely perfect. The past year has been awesome as I watch him grow.
Some things I am passionate about aside from family and running are: my spirituality, writing and photography (enter blog), scrapbooking, health, personal growth, cooking, baking, and DESSERTS!!!
This blog will include our day to day life, eats, workouts, desserts, and other random occurrences! I hope you enjoy reading.
You are awesome! I am so proud of you and can’t wait read about your neon adventures, trials, successes and day to day revelations! Love ya!
I can’t wait to hear more!
