New Mile PR at the Guardian Mile tonight. 2yrs ago I fell short of my goal at this race & after my bike tour 🚴‍♂️ a couple months ago, it took me longer than expected to get my running legs back. Super pumped about my result tonight!🥉💪. Thanks to George Alex & Jordan Hogan for all the help & encouragement along the way to get me back!🙌

State number 50!! 🇺🇸

Back in 2009 I started running, & made a goal to run a marathon in all 50 states.

This weekend was the Garmin Marathon in Olathe, KS. 2:58:40

It’s been such a fun journey; meeting new friends & exploring new places.

“I’M NOT A RUNNER”
“I’M NOT FAST”
“I DON’T HAVE A RUNNERS BODY”

You can be whatever you tell yourself you can be. If you truly want something, don’t give yourself any excuses.

Everybody starts somewhere.

Deal with the shin-splints, deal with the knee pain, deal with the Achilles tendinitis. Eventually it will all pass, & your body will follow your mind. 💪💪

About 6 months ago I had the goal of running 2:49 at the

The training build was going well, then suddenly 2 weeks ago I had a freak hamstring issue & could not run. For 2 weeks it was only biking, rest, & treatments.

I flew to Germany🇩🇪 anyway, & yesterday I tested it out on the hotel treadmill & got 1.5M in 15 minutes (10:03p).

Today was all about survival mode. Just finish, try not to die, & try not to do any long-term damage to my hamstring.

The gun went off & I didn’t look at one mile split the entire race. From the first kilometer on, my hamstring was tight, but not painful, & my legs felt like they were going to sieze-up & cramp at any moment.

Although I missed my original goal by 25 minutes (3:14:46), I’ve never been so proud of myself & so happy with my performance at any marathon (today was # 58)!

Today really was all about the journey!🏃🏼‍♂️‍➡️
