FUN FACT: if you run roughly six miles at a 10:40/mi pace, you can listen to “It’s All Coming Back to Me” by Celine Dion approximately eight and a half times.

Gonna keep it a buck with y’all, there are some home games where I’m just not feeling it, and this week is one of them. Need a morning run in cool air over the next couple days to turn the vibes around for me.

After two TPMS sensor replacements we’re up this being a $[redacted] trip, but I suppose this is the upshot of having a paid-off vehicle that lasts approximately forever if you treat it right.

Auburn is probably my favorite, been to West Virginia and wish I got to explore more, and wish Tennessee were better when I went so I could get a better feel for it

Updating the goals list for 2026, and I’m up to running my first 50K and doing my first century ride on the bike. I don’t know how either will turn out, but I’m excited to try!
