The Metanoia
This book is messy. It will seem as though at times some poems are completely unrelated to the next. But it is the metanoia. It is my journey. For, each poem is connected through love and death, the o...

I quit marathons for a variety of reasons but I keep thinking…. I’ve only been injured once in the six times I’ve trained for a marathon. Even then, I still was able to finish my training.

I’m taking the approach of not being patient after my most recent injury. It’s worked before.

In my effort to still be a NASCAR fan, I'm once again disappointed and annoyed at this dumb format to crown a champion.

I’m almost 3 weeks into not running after dealing with Achilles tendonitis. It’s almost better but …. I actually haven’t missed running. Cycling and ramping up those miles has been fun. I like just walking.

Does my pumpkin remind you of anyone?

After spending some time on threads recently I realize it’s mostly fear mongering with politics, and really bad opinions on parenting and running. We’ll never have a good site again like Twitter was in the mid-2010s.

If you have a Garmin or Coros or whatever, you do not need to give your data to a third party app. I learned this back in the DailyMile days. Your watch and associated app with it have all you need.

An effort to cleanse your timeline, I present to you a dog that thinks he should be on our couch or bed at all times.

Today may be the earliest in this transition of seasons that I wore long sleeves on a run.

Once again, my neighborhood Facebook group has broken out into people suggesting walking/running WITH traffic instead of facing traffic. Each example they try to use are terrible spots to try to be walking with the traffic. Also, these streets get like 30 vehicles a day.

I have felt pretty miserable this summer trying to run, but August has turned out not so bad. I’ve run more this month than any of the previous 4 months. And the last time I ran more in August was in 2019.

Went to my first NASCAR race in about 10 years a week ago. Good times with my friend, but my goodness, the action in the track was as boring as TV makes it for short tracks. I’ll go back to be an occasional fan.

My 5k PR anniversary is today … from 14 years ago. My dailymile post from that day still lives on Facebook.

Live music soothes the soul. 🎶 What a great night with Mumford and Sons, Chris Thile, Nathaniel Rateliff, Celisse, Trumbone Shorty, Lucious, Madison Cunningham, Ketch Secor, Maggie Rogers, AND MORE.
