2024 - in so many ways for me - has been about embracing the pivot.
Sometimes the harder move, instead of barreling through, is to take a step back, recognize when you’re trying to force something and course correct. Deferring my fall marathon plans in favor of Houston January 19 ✨.
Tough choice, and one I wrestled ...

I know it’s only Tuesday, but while everyone else is tapering for their marathons 😈..
in good company with @cooperray (with only a 4 hour lead & 5K ft of elevation gain! 😭) and @andyk (gotta screenshot when you’re above andyk)

The fact that Jakob ran a 63 at Copenhagen Half after stopping to walk in the second 10K 😮💨.. I love it when the pros hop into new distances, so fun

You can rest now, sweet prince 😴 Two days after winning the Diamond League 1500m title, Jakob Ingebrigtsen🇳🇴 takes on a new challenge: his first half marathon. And boy, was it tough. At the 2024 Copenhagen Half, Ingebrigtsen came through 10km in 27:27, a Norwegian record on… pic.twitter.com/M2SvhXLwXn

Alright.. those who've been around these parts long enough know it's almost time for my annual Mike Flanagan fan-girling.
SO hyped for his new film The Life of Chuck, based on a Stephen King novel (which just premiered at Toronto Film Festival). 8.1 on IMDB - no (known) distributors just yet, but its on my radar 🦇 🤓

Anyone have the experience of racing a marathon shockingly well after a not super great training cycle? 🤣
*not great defined as* - off on paces in workouts, maybe some illness/injury which cut the training block short by a significant amount, etc.
just wondering what's possible lol

Super proud of our tiny rag tag Hood to Coast team.. truth be told, we didn’t encounter a single other group with only 8 people on this course 🤣.. one person even asked us if this was *allowed*, but we made it there in one piece and in good spirits!

Well, that took a turn. My original plan was to give live updates on the race when I could, but pretty soon after this, we entered a signal dead zone lasting almost the entire rest of the race. 😵💫
The night legs were wild, though - pitch black, up and down a mountain (felt like mostly up 💀), into the mist.
