Reinforced Running

Last time I stepped on the .fit course in Nov 2022 I had a top three lifetime performace.

My August 2023 was not a top three performance.

But I came into the race with the goal to learn and grow and that is something I accomplished.

There is learning in racing success and failure - now it’s time to implement what I’ve learned and that’s what keeps me coming back. We are good.

Later that day I partnered with for DEKA teams. We took a win and a record. My main strategy was to team up with an athlete who regularly sets records 🧠

I’ll be ready in December.

Next up - Hyrox Madrid.

First .fit of the season going down this weekend in my old neck of woods.

Then doubles with in the afternoon. Let’s do work!

Having an abundance of passion for racing and fitness can be isolating.

Adult athletes are a minority, and non-athletes can't always relate.

But this weekend was a blowout celebration of our shared passions.

The inaugural Hybrid Training Camp is in the books and I don't know how it could have exceeded my expectations any further.

Spending extended time with Hybrid athletes makes me even more excited about the future of this sport because the people who live these lives are incredible. I learned something from every athlete who attended, and my wheels are turning.

So a huge thank you to .runs .marc_ and for hanging out, working out, laughing with, and teaching us about Hybrid racing.

I feel a bond with all of you in a unique way and can't way to see you grow as athletes.

Major shouts to my friends and partners , , .lab, and .athlete, who put passion and fun into every workout, seminar, logistics, and meal.

This is literally just the beginning.

Shouts to , , and for the support.

.fit West Palm was a real nice time.

Grew a mustache, went out hard, hit the movement standards, received zero internet no reps, died, and finished 8th.

I improved every station and my run time from my last race to come away with my second best time to date. There is plenty of work to do and I will do it.

Later that day I landed an amazing partner in Bridget Brown () and we set the co-ed relay record and finished second overall in the team race. Bridget also landed on the podium 🥉 (under previous WR time)in the women’s elite race.

We will take on all challengers.

Deka World Champs is next.
