We will start our dinner service at 5:30 and will be there till 10 pm. Can’t wait to see everyone tonight!!!

Mental & physical fitness isn’t easy,
it’s an everyday commitment and some days are easy and some days aren’t. Today thankfully was a bit easier than yesterday, the weather is nice and I’ve been on a little bit of a roll. Still with a list of things that “need” to be done I laced up my running shoes and got in another 7.5 miles. Today was about challenging my pace a bit, 2 different loops each 2x. The goal was to finish the second loop faster than the first, managed to get it done both times and celebrated with 10 minutes of meditation. The list of chores and responsibilities is still there but they seem a bit less daunting and I’m a little bit better than I was before. 🙏🏃‍♂️🧘‍♂️🥕🥑🥦

Seems like all my training days end up being in the rain. Maybe the universe is trying to toughen me up or prep me for something coming up. Either way, I got out there again today, a solid 90-minute run (8.11 miles). The first 35 minutes I felt pretty sluggish and legs felt like logs. At minute 35 I had a fleeting moment of asking myself why the hell am I doing this. It’s cold, rainy and your way out of shape. I’ve heard these voices a lot and I know it’s simply incessant chatter of the weak mind that needs no attention to be paid to it. I immediately began positive talk and thoughts about why I am out here and what I am going after (healthy body, mind, inner contentment, posting role model for kiddos, 40-mile race...). The chatter went away and was soon replaced with happiness and my legs feeling good. It’s a constant battle to quiet the chatter but it’s a battle that needs to be waged daily. What do you do when the negative chatter begins?

Channeling my inner today. With the Squak Mountain 50k coming up in April I desperately need to start logging consistent miles every week. My plan all weekend was to get in a solid hour run this morning. When I woke this morning to rain the crummy part of my brain immediately shut down the run. I immediately was left with a choice to go for the run and be a bit wet, cold and maybe enjoy it or stay inside and do some other activity. I thankfully know myself enough that with a laundry list of other things to do I likely wouldn’t end up doing anything and I’d be miserable all day because of it. I was able to gather up enough positives to take a step out of the door. Even while driving to the park to hit the trails I had multiple moments when I was about to turn around. Not surprised that I was the only one out today. It was a steady light rain but it was absolutely necessary. This last year has been so much more difficult to get into a steady routine of exercising and this is me trying to get back to it. I’m going to be using this platform to share my journey back to being a fit dad and the road to the 50k. Thanks for reading and being you. 🙏🏻❤️🌱
