Purposeful Strength

This morning I had the opportunity to read to Emerson’s Pre-K class. If you’re a parent of young kids…go read to their class. The whole experience is amazing.

And always remember, you’re never too young to learn how to be a Jedi 💪🏻

From 5k to 50miles, was with me for all the miles in 2025 and I’m stoked to be a Maple Ambassador in 2026 🙌🏻

14 weeks out and PR chasin’ 🏃‍♂️💨

2x40minutes at my goal pace for this race. Looking forward to getting outside on some hills later in this prep, but for now I’ll enjoy the treadmill and a warm gym 😅

We strive for perfection and when it doesn’t happen we give up.

Whatever we placed value on is no longer important because it can’t be done the “right way”

Cheers to 2026 🙌🏻

I hope in 2026 you can do the same.

If it wasn’t for a zoning inspector changing our plans it was signed and sealed.

I think about that fella a lot. I think I owe him a thank you.
