Day three of Kenzie being the most sweet and curious girl while the new kitties acknowledge her existence with suspicion

Find someone who wants to cuddle you so hard that you can hardly hear the TV over their snoring

The husband got the #NFLdraft on the TV. The wife got a French wine. The #corgi got cheese. It’s one hell of a Friday in this household

We did it! Our #firstmarathon completed in #Paris of all cities. This truly is our #ArcdeTriomphe @jlasher.bsky.social

Yes, I am openly weeping in this photo. Yes, those are tears of relief and joy and pride. Soooo different from the tears shed at miles 18, 19, 22, and 23

Aaaand the general sentiment of how the second half of our first #marathon went.

It got better after I took my next two GUs. After that, it was an emotional march to the gulag and a lot of questioning of life decisions.

The #MarathondeParis was a story with two halves: How that story started

First half of our #firstmarathon: singing to the jams in our ears (not to brag, but I have an EPIC running playlist), power-ups and unbridled excitement.

Not pictured: me doing a little #Mario jump after tapping the power up!

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to be the last wave of the last corral of #marathon starters, here are some visual aids. It’s surreal, like a zombie movie in reverse.

The perfect restaurant birthday celebration: candle in dessert, no singing, clapping, or other extroverted fanfare

I believe:
💖 In a thing called love
🧦 In the healing properties of compression socks after a long run
🍪 I will have a third — no, fourth — cookie after that run

Recently dusted off my old favorite camera.

And I suddenly remember why it was my favorite:

Last year, I wasn’t even sure if I could run the Dash for the Beads after fighting a horrible infection the weeks prior. This year, clocked a PR and broke the top 10 in my division! The work adds up! #running #5k #Dashforthebeads

Today Kenzie got to enjoy her very first Bishop Arts Mardi Gras parade, and we got to experience our first one that wasn’t rainy and gray!

I legit would love for this neighborhood to close down certain blocks to vehicle traffic every weekend, it’s just a totally different vibe

Driving hours to pick out exotic orchids demands some #roadtrip treats for the bestest #corgi #adventuredog around

Expectation going into training for my first marathon:

“As I run more, I’ll become faster and shed a few pounds.”

Reality: My pace keeps slowing and I’ve gained weight from fueling.

I am a slow, thicc runner.

I am the corgi of running.

Sound on for what @jlasher.bsky.social experiences the last couple of miles as my running partner every time we extend our long run distance.

For clarity: I’m Roy, he’s Ted. And Beard.

Don’t need a finish line or medal or free banana to celebrate a hard-fought win. New long run distance of 16 miles AND put on the afterburners the last mile to lower overall pace by more than ten seconds.

I know this is the product of UX gamification and means absolutely nothing in real life.

But man, for a slow runner working on endurance and earning no PRs at the moment, this dopamine burst is THE TITS

Beyond performance. Artistry of the highest caliber my every measure. Kendrick Lamar just gave us the most iconic halftime show… perhaps ever?

I saw the sign, and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign 🎶

Not gonna lie, I need this little pep talk at mile 7. New longest personal distance achievement unlocked: 14!

This is easily my favorite book that I’ve had in my brain in a while. I’m sad that I finished it!

Thank you @petersagal.bsky.social for the wit and heart.

But also, damn did this sentence just reach out and sucker punch me. Brutal!

I don’t mean to brag, but I make a hell of a birthday cake. Just ask @jlasher.bsky.social

Happy birthday! I love you so much!
