Dad. Washed up runner trying to be less washed up.
Started a 6 wk 5K plan today with the hopes of going sub 20 at the end.

I've had super inconsistent training the last month or so. I'm lacking the base a bit and will need to work that up over the next couple weeks.

Plan goal today was a tempo, first day back so I did an easy 3. #running

Last run of 2024 in the books. What a year with my first half marathon, full marathon, and a return to consistent #running.

Last couple months post marathon were tough and a but inconsistent, but something to learn from.

On to 2025!

#Running in the rain is incredibly underrated (if it's above 40 degrees)

Week 2 of my base phase is off to a solid start (after a disastrous week 1).

12x400 today @ 5K pace. Goal was 95 per interval. And comfortable

Simply could not hit my splits, but in the good way. Averaged 92/interval. Never felt super uncomfortable(or comfortable)

Day 1 of a 4 week base cycle in the books. 6.5 miles. Cold...first run in tights this winter.

Some things I'm focusing on are slightly faster pacing on easy days and overall mileage working up toward 50mpw, rather than 40 in my base cycles so far this year. #running

I’m really surprised Gaetz flamed out so soon given what has obviously been a rigorous vetting process from Team Trump on their nominees so far.

Officially a week out from my attempt to go sub 20 for the 5K for the first time in about 13 years.

Training block hasn't really been there 5.5 weeks post marathon but we're still going to send it. #running

Not sure what's crazier... #redsox plan of Soto/Vlad/Crochet/Fried or me for taking the bait for the 5th year in a row.

Thinking about 2025 #running goals. Why not throw out some crazy stuff I haven't done since high school.
