About Me

Hi! My name is Amy and I am the writer behind She Runs By Faith. I am a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, wife to an amazing man and homeschooling mom to four young men in the making. I have a passion for running, graphic design, learning and dark roast coffee.


Mission Statement


She Runs By Faith is a means to share my love for Jesus Christ, this crazy-blessed life of motherhood and my passion for running with you, my readers. The new blog name pretty well covers it, right?

My original blog, Life to the Full, was launched in April 2013 with the mission to bring glory to God by encouraging women, especially those navigating their role as a new wife and/or mom. Years later, much in life has changed yet my mission to glorify God remains the same.

 Thanks for stopping by and feel free to drop me a comment!

Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do; 
do it all for the glory of God. 1 CORINTHIANS 10:31

    Hi Amy!
    I saw a comment of yours from another site (beautythroughimperfection.com) about blogging for money, and you "feeling too small." I decided to check out your blog. I'm also a Christian, and my husband and I decided to start blogging. We just "launched" last night to our family and friends. I look forward to reading your blog more!

    Hi Amy! I'm SO glad you stopped over at my blog! You have just a darling family as well and your heart for the Lord is so passionate and evident! Oh, how I wish I was a runner; it seems so freeing. Alas, I am not, but I do love living vicariously and I suppose there is always hope :)

      Thank you for stopping by, Becca!

      Running is freeing some days and other days it feels like my shoes are full of lead :) There IS always hope - running is such a simple way to fit in exercise and it's easy to do (almost) anywhere you go!

#RuntheYear 2022 + Knockaround Slingshot Snow Goggle Review

Disclaimer: I received Knockaround Slingshot Snow Goggles in exchange for my review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador) and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews! My 2022 running adventures have finally come to a close! It's been an amazing running year and also a pretty crazy exciting year as far as personal life goes as well. We moved to our dream farm in July, which was a lot of work and also so cool. The snow this winter has been intense but we love it out here. After running CIM in early December, I planned to take a solid two weeks off of running.  That turned into one week off going as planned and then 10 days of doing bare minimum childcare + laying on the couch with influenza. And THEN a sinus infection followed that! Thankfully the kids are super hardy and were only sick for a couple days; unlike me.  Finally, I made it back to running and realized I only needed to run 24 miles to "ru...

A Gentle Feast: Cycle 1 Term 1 & 2

Image
It's been too long since my last homeschool update; time runs away from me. Our previous school year ended abruptly and in a hard way, when my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer after Mother's Day. We completed our state testing requirements much earlier in the school year and well-exceed Minnesota's required number of school days, so we stopped the school year a week early and went to grandma & grandpa's farm to spend time together.  That's the beauty of homeschooling. There is room for flexbility, swapping around days/weeks, starting or ending early and even taking school on the road with us.  Life has been a bit different ever since then but we have made so many great memories even during tough times! Having Christmas together as a family at my parents' farm was a miracle in itself.  ---- We soaked in the summer as much as possible - full of farm things, swim lessons, 4-H, fairs, a trip to Mt. Rushmore, family time, baseball - and then started sc...

Save Those Toes | KT Tape Blister Prevention

Disclaimer: I received KT Tape Blister Prevention Tape & Patch   to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador) and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews! Race week is upon us and I'm in the process of packing! While there are so many different aspects to covering the marathon distance, I want to talk about one "feeture" that is essential to running. (In advance, please excuse the feet pictures - this is just part of life as a runner!) Out of all the marathons I have ran, a common theme of most race-related injuries has been feet. Even when following all of the rules (i.e. wear the same shoes and socks you train in, trim toenails pre-race), a blister, hot spot or even a black toenail can come out of nowhere. There is something about long miles and hot, sweaty feet that don't mix. Personally my "trouble area" is my middle toe on the right foot only. It's crazy. I have no...
