This year, one of my non-running goals is to read 50+ books.
Reading books is one of my most tried and true methods for learning, in all facets of my life, which is why it’s a priority for me once again in 2021.
I have several books I’m already looking forward to reading this year, as well as several books I’m looking forward to re-reading this year.
Wait, what? Read more
In 2019, I set the goal of running one marathon (minimum!) per month.
That is a valid question.
And one that I’ll get to shortly.
How did you spend Marathon Monday 2019?
If you’re at all like me, you made sure that you were streaming the race on Monday while you were “working”.
Watching the elites do their thing is always a mixed bag for me.
On one hand, it’s obviously awesome just watching what they are capable of doing over 26.2 miles.
On another hand, it’s a little disheartening how easy they make it look to run at ~5-minute pace mile after mile.

Hurricane Irma was something.
According to the news, it was a “nuclear” hurricane. Yeah, that might have been overselling things just a bit.
But there is no denying the fact that it was a big hurricane that had the potential to really do some serious damage.
After the storm had passed, I started thinking back on the experience and realized that there were more than a few things I could learn from the storm that applied as much to my running as they do to anything else.
While I wouldn’t want any of you to have to ride out a hurricane if you can avoid it, perhaps you can learn a few things from my experience that will help you on the roads and trails this fall and into the future. Read more
Wow.
Episode 400…
I don’t remember what my thoughts were when I started this process back in July of 2014, but it’s safe to say that Episode 400 wasn’t an expectation or a goal.
Shoot, 10 episodes seemed like a monumental accomplishment back then! So 400?
Wow. Just wow. Read more
