- Took 2nd place yesterday against some great competitors at the Trail Love 10K at Irvine Regional Park from . I was especially humbled and inspired (yet again) by 55 year old Fredrick Herr who took 1st place. He also took 1st back in October at the CDM 10 miler, so when I saw him at the starting line yesterday morning, I knew I was in for a real treat. It also occurred to me that I was about to get to test how much I’d progressed since. He outpaced me in that race in October by 1:14s a mile. He took 1st and I took 3rd that day. He didn’t remember me, nor would I expect him to, but I could never forget him. He’s the kind guy that pre race-day nightmares are made of. He really inspired me and reminded me that life is a marathon and not a sprint. He showed me that with enough intensity and consistency over time, that one could have a long competitive career in this amazing sport of trail racing. Much to my delight, we toed the starting line together yesterday morning. The gun went off and I got out in front of him to see what his pace felt like. I wanted to download that feeling to memory for later use. I led him to just shy of the 1st mile marker and once the adrenaline wore off (and my common sense came back to me) his experience kicked in and he started to drift away slowly, but surely. He outpaced me again, but this time by :12s a mile, instead of 1:14s per mile. I congratulated him and thanked him for pushing me to break my goal of 40 minutes. He did the same for me, and told me I helped him break his goal of 42. It reminded me of how much good can come from a healthy, yet determined approach to competition and how grateful I am to have rediscovered my competitive spirit in this beautiful sport of trail running. -

- Which is greater: the sacrifice of time and process or the sacrifice of outcome and talents. I for one, would rather not know. So today, I’ll give my best. May you always give your all, regardless of the endeavor! -

- Took 2nd place yesterday at the Haunted Hills 12K from . This course featured 1300+ ft worth of climb within 7.46 miles. There’s really no way explain the way it feels out there except for TRULY feeling ALIVE, capable, and blessed. It’s been a bit of a journey for me in my own personal life to get to the person you see in these pictures. This month marked 21 months of no alcohol or drugs for me - something I struggled with, largely in secrecy, off and on through my -teen’s & 20’s. It’s also something I’ve kept a secret on here until now. It was only fitting that my bib number started with 21 (01), which I’m only realizing now as I type this. If you’re struggling too, I implore you to reach out to me or someone you trust. It’s never to late to show up for yourself and be the person that your future self deserves. Let’s get together a plan, a partner, and a push in the right direction…one step at a time. You don’t have to travel that road alone. As always thank you to God, my friends, and my family for the support. -

- THIRD place overall in the 10 miler yesterday. The course featured 1700 feet worth of climbing bliss with beautiful vistas of Laguna Beach. I was pleasantly surprised to hear my name called to the podium. I lost track of the people I had let pass me early on, and equally the ones I picked off as the race and hills carried on. Humbled and inspired each time I get to compete against other people who are leaving it all on the course. Ready for the next one! THANK YOU ALL WHO TEXTED AND MESSAGED FOR SUPPORT! It’s really what makes it all worth it. Thank you to Jerri over at for putting on some awesome races in the local area. Flick through to see all the funny faces I make while on the brink of my body’s capabilities.-

- “The wolf on the hill is not as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill.” - Had a fun time yesterday, competing in my first ever trail race and first race of any kind in several years. Comprised of a distance of 12K (7.5miles) and 1140ft of elevation gain, the course featured both steep and gradual climbs throughout. I finished 7th overall amongst 100 or so tough competitors. Looking forward to the next race in a few weeks. -

- What an absolute BLESSING it is to be a coach to these two outstanding young men. They both performed very well tonight against each other and it made for an exciting night of HS volleyball! Proud of who these two are growing up to be both on and off the court. -

- Beyond PROUD of this crew and for keeping each other safe, strong, and showing TRUE RESILIENCE. Showed up to a FULL crew at 5:45 this morning that were ready to work hard and break a sweat in the brisk outdoor air. These smiling faces are able to turn early, cold mornings into purpose-filled, energetic mornings. They always thank me for showing up, but in reality it’s me who is thanking them! -

Phone is always on, door is open, and coffee can easily be brewed. I’m doing a check in...my cell for any person who needs to talk is 949-382-0745.
Showing support for one another is important now more than ever. I need eight people to “post”, not share, this message to show you are always there if someone needs to talk.

- I took this picture my grandfather’s hand and mine and set it as my wall paper a couple weeks ago. I did this to remind me of the multitude of years of hard work and sacrifice that were put in before me to allow me to be here today. Not just by him, but by all the parents, and grandparents of mine and that of theirs before them. I’m 30 and my grandfather is 80. I use this picture as a reminder that one day 50 years from now my hands will look like the ones on the right and until that day, it’s up to me to make each day count. It’s up to me to have meaningful conversations with meaningful people. It’s up to me to surround myself with only the best company. It’s up to me to have a positive impact on the community and web of influence that surrounds me. It’s up to me to keep an optimistic attitude. It’s up to me to keep my faith that God will show me favor and light at the end of the dark seasons, so long as I walk the path. It’s up to me to neglect the things in life that no longer serve this purpose. God will provide the outcome, whatever it may be...but putting forth the effort...is up to me. -

- Don’t avoid failure. It’s inevitable. We will all fail at some point in one way or another. Instead, fear the feeling of fearing failure. Embrace failing. The more you can accept failure, the more you can eventually overcome and succeed. -
