Running by the sea is what inspires me.
Hi! Thank you so much for visiting my store! I am a mom who is always looking for creative ways to continue staying home with my adorable little boy and I am THE beach lovin’ athlete.
I was inspired to start making medal holders and open up my Etsy store while on a run with my best friend. She and I like to go running and give gratitude to the beautiful place we get to train every day…along the Pacific Ocean in North San Diego County. In our eyes, we live, play, swim, bike and run in the most beautiful place on Earth.
Our runs along the beach usually contain a constant monitor of heart rates and mileage, but most of all, we inspire each other. We brainstorm new ideas. We vent. We laugh. We even cry sometimes. We ALWAYS have sticky sweaty hugs afterwards, and leave each run feeling happy, grateful, loved, inspired, and ready for whatever comes our way!
We also both have shoe boxes full of race medals. She’la and I love to train for races together AND cross finish lines together…all the while, collecting inspiration, hilarious memories, sore muscles, major accomplishments, personal bests, personal worsts, and let’s not forget about the BLING!
I’ve always been really crafty and I made a race medal holder for my sister for Christmas last year, and another for myself - and I realized this is something that a lot of people could probably use! From there, I taught myself how to use Adobe Illustrator and got busy making a few! I love creating new designs and I love making custom orders for people!
My pieces are made with love and inspiration from my own experiences. Welcome to RunningByTheSea!
