Meet Kelly Roberts. She just completed running the New York City Marathon and along the way managed to take over 20 selfies with men to help her find a little extra motivation to make it to the finish line. Adding to this achievement, she managed to post to her Instagram account in real-time!
On her blog Run, Selfie, Repeat, Kelly describes how running became her "lifeline," helping her overcome the death of her brother and deal with her own issues of body dysmorphia. She now hopes to inspire others to run with her own story.
