I absolutely nailed the Irish Double today (8k + 5k), and I couldn't be any prouder of the effort I put in today and through training the last month.

I just crushed a new 5k PR with a time of 25:18, beating my last PR by a minute and four seconds!

I also just ran the fastest mile I've ever ran in my adult life with an 8:04 pace!

An easy-paced 5-miler yesterday. I am absolutely loving the warmer weather.

I did a 235-lb trap bar deadlift PR today, 125 lbs more than my bodyweight.

Running in a tank top at the beginning of March?! That's usually unheard of in Michigan. I'm certainly not complaining...

I swapped out the speed run I'd initially planned for an easy zone 3 run today. The warmer weather is making me itch for longer endurance runs. If only it wasn't a work day... 😅

I'm usually a "fly by the seat of my pants" kind of person, except when it comes to structuring my workouts. I'm a geek when it comes to filling out my monthly workout board.

Does anyone else love to see their workout structures in writing, or is it just me? 😅

My two-year-old is obsessed with Snapchat filters. So you might see a lot of those here. 😅

I finished four books and three audiobooks in February!

My fascination with romantasy continues. It's enthralling! 😅

The biggest surprise was Tom Felton's memoir, made even better by his incredible reading. What a phenomenal audiobook!

Trying to keep a strong body for when the inevitable apocalypse happens, which seems a little bit nearer every single day. 😅

It’s fun being a writer and trying to write during this delightful era. I’ll write like three paragraphs and before I start on the fourth I blink and I’m doomscrolling and I don’t even remember commanding my hand to click to that tab. Then I go back to writing. Everything is fine! It’s all fine.

There is nothing better than clearing some seasonal blues with an 8-mile run in the warm 45-degree sunshine.

When the world feels like it's crumbling around me, he is my reason why.

He is the future, and the future will be better.
