In honor of the Austin marathon: The annual running report for 2026. Just one. I promise. 🤣

This year is admittedly less special. No crazy injury. Annoying aches for sure but no need for physical therapy. I'm just feeling my 46 years.

Training for this Houston half was going splendidly but the flu entered the chat the week after Christmas while vacationing. Apparently I traveled to Colorado while historic levels of flu hospitalizations were happening.

This was humbling. This took me down. Like Mayweather against one of those forgotten opponents who was a KO in the first round or two. I was hit and I was down.

So, just when I needed to be nailing my final workouts of my build, I just wasn't running at all and pathetically lying around with literally all the flu symptoms on the list. 🤒

Let's just say I limped into the week before the race and not for the usual reasons. I ran a few times. I managed a short workout a few days before at race pace but I knew my lungs, muscles and energy weren't totally with me.

You don't have to be a 'quitter' to reset expectations to do well and finish a race. At this age, the stars have to be aligned for me to run as fast as I want to. I knew this race wasn't going to be the one.

Pre-race goals. Get into Houston, eat pasta and rest. Take a nice humid shower. Do my usual.

Race day was great weather with less wind than normal. My plan was to start the first 2 miles slower than normal at near 7 min mile pace and see how I felt. Crossed the mile at 6:58 and sped up a bit through the first half of the half. The body racking coughs caught up with me and I didn't feel any energy that you typically have after a taper. So, I just held on. I looked around more. I nodded or thumbs up'd to people bringing extra energy or music to the crowds. Not destroyed. I just never felt great.

No speeding to the finish. I crossed. Marched over to get my medal. I did ok. Hit my sub 7 min/mile goal. I came, I saw, I did not conquer. I'm ok with that.

Remember, the key to achieving your fitness is just consistency. Start easy, slow, light distance. Do it consistently. Before you know it, you'll be running in Houston on a cold January day 😉

Following a social media trend for once! Why not? It's a Friday. Maybe we all need something light and goofy 🤷‍♀️ So, we present you with the ChatGPT caricature trend. I am deeply appreciative of the cartoon version of myself that also makes me appear as a 10-15 year younger cartoon ✅ I love that my pup made it into the scene ✅ I love the running medal 🏅 I can accept the random smiling thumbs up skeleton xray and the skin care potions ✅ I can not however identify what's going on with those surgical instruments. Absolutely not plastic surgery there 🤣

Best wishes to all this holiday season! Cheers to health & time 🙏🥂 Thank you all for your support this year. Here are a few holiday pics to share from this week. Our holiday card to you. 🥰

We are in the full swing of holiday mood here at Synergy! Here are a few photos of the group holiday party from over the weekend. Lots of fun and good cheer. 🤩

A big thanks to the surgeons and staff of Synergy for so warmly taking care of my patients as I ventured away for a quick trip to Colorado. Vacation that includes revisiting some hobbies, connecting with family & friends in a meaningful way, taking in peaceful (and cooler) landscapes, and finding new adventures are a grand success IMO. I got the chance to reunite with my two brothers and their families. Many of my patients have heard me brag about these two. My brothers are also physicians- one radiologist and one orthopedic surgeon. So, we have some strong opinions on healthcare in this group. I'll spare you those thoughts. Together we biked, fished, rafted, hiked, golfed, and played some pickleball. No one went running with me. 😉 I loved doing all things summer in Colorado. Highlights included my daughter's first camp experience, finding some live music and an excellent '90s cover band, eating comfortably outdoors, biking everywhere, having afternoon tea at the Dushanbe teahouse, and celebrating July 4th Aspen style. I've got stories to share for weeks. Coming back to the office energized. Would love to hear about where you like to do during a Colorado summer. I'm sure we will be back! 💗

Great feeling today as I met with a patient for potential weight loss related surgery and she relayed to me that I treated her husband possibly 15 years ago for a reconstructive issue. First thought- Wow, I really have been doing this a long time 😳 Second thought- I feel so grateful that they appreciated that care and are willing to trust me with her's 💗 That's career goals in a nutshell.

With spring time approaching we get lots of questions about timing for surgery. Patients are eyeing their summer vacations and want to be healed and released from their surgery restrictions. I'm right there with you. I want to do all the things especially swimming in that beautiful pool or ocean. So, start planning now and get in within these next 6 weeks. At your consult we discuss everything including when you can exercise and go swimming. Restrictions can vary from 3 weeks (eyelid surgery) to 6-8 weeks for larger body contouring surgery. We look forward to planning with you!

It's time for my annual running post. Aren't we all thrilled and on the edge of our seats? 😉

2024 was the year of the hamstring for me. A literal pain in the butt.

PT did wonders for me and reminded me that we all have weaknesses no matter our fitness. If you could benefit from PT, please go do it. Learn about your body and what you can do to strengthen it. You will age better. Your future self will thank you.

Fast forward a few months and I was legitimately running again and started training for my favorite race, the Houston half marathon. I felt really good after Thanksgiving and began to believe that I could run a pace similar to last year.

I went in hoping for a PR (personal record) as always. The weather was freezing. The wind wasn't welcome. But, some magic happened and I crossed the line with a 1:28:44. Good enough for third in my age group and a definite PR!

Here's the part where I encourage everyone to find their thing. If still looking for some 2025 resolutions, I have a couple of easy ones for you and one harder one.

1. Put a vegetable or fruit on your plate with every lunch and dinner (cooked or not). Not about counting calories. Just making the whole food concept easy.
2. Walk 5 minutes after dinner. Within 15 minutes of finishing dinner. Arm your body against insulin resistance.
3. Make your moderate exercise a habit. Start with a 15-20 minute goal. Build it to become a 6 day/week habit. One rest day. Do it early. Get it done. Don't make it hard until you get more fit.

Modern life tells us we should lose substantial weight, remarkably change our bodies and get ferociously fit in a matter of weeks. The road to fitness is much longer and, yes, more boring than that. It's just that slow consistent burn. I celebrate people's 15 minute workouts. Those are the feasible building blocks that eventually change you and that prevent disease. It's consistency.

Bonus to fitness? Avoiding disease and mental decline. Living better as you live longer. And, looking younger. 🩷 Make 2025 the year of your total glow up 🙌🏻

Merry Christmas and happy holidays from my family to yours! I hope you find some peace, love and general good cheer today!! 🙏❤️

It's the Synergy holiday party! I'm gloating about my big win- awarded surgeon with the best OR music 😎 Such a fun night mingling with both our OR and clinic staff. I am blessed with amazing people to work with and I really enjoy seeing them dressed up outside of work. Here are just a few photos from last night. Happy holidays to all!!

Happy Thanksgiving from our little crew celebrating this fine day in Roatan! Much to be thankful for. Have a beautiful evening! 🩷

I arrived home early this week after an epic two weeks of adventures spent in Switzerland and Italy with my family. I had the chance to see some of the most beautiful land in the world particularly in the Bernese Oberland area of Switzerland and Tuscany in central Italy. Escaping the heat of Texas in some elevation is not overrated. I thought I'd share a bit here. Big thanks to the docs and staff of for taking such good care of my patients. A thank you to patients for your patience as clinic runs a little slower in my week back. Cheers to new summer experiences! 🩷
