Day date in the city with my lovely wife. Let’s go Reign! #reignfc #riseup

Thankful for carbs, protein, fiber, electrolytes, water, pacing buddies, unwavering support from my friends and family, hours upon hours of training, and for never, ever giving up.

I can do great things.

Running in the PNW means thinking the hail storm passed only to get stuck in more waves later that day. #running #seattlecherryblossomhalf #training #halfmarathon #temporun #hailyeah #pnw #seattle

Not feeling the most confident in my training. I couldn’t finish my long run today. Half marathon is two weeks away.

Listening to my body is not something that comes easy to me.

I need rest.

Some days I run.
Today I walked. #womensmarch #resist #imarchforher #shemarchedforme #protecttranskids #queerpeopleexist #womendeservebetter

Started 2025 by running 10 mi w/my wife beside me. As a slow runner, this was such an accomplishment. Lost 6 weeks of training after this due to bronchitis. Slowly but surely I’m getting back into it! I have an hour run today. 3 weeks til the Cherry Blossom Half! #running #seattlecherryblossomhalf

I felt strong enough to RUN tonight but I stuck with my training plan and did a recovery day. Feeling grateful with every step. #running #beginnerrunner #marathontraining #recovery #itsworthit #seattlecherryblossomhalf

I’m hyper aware that I make bigots feel uncomfortable just by existing in the same space as them.
However, today I was reminded of the ease with which queer people come out to me in casual conversation.
Hate makes me stand out but love makes me fit in.
Androgyny FTW!

I stretch so I can run
I run so I can think

Finally able to get back into my training program after a month and a half. Thinking I might get a treadmill for next winter… #running #marathontraining #pnw #layers #parfait #onion #turtlerunner

The wife surprised me with Harlem Globetrotters tickets! I’ve ALWAYS wanted to see them. Truly a bucket list item. #harlemglobetrotters #globetrotters #bucketlist
