Reading has been an integral part of my life. As a kid I kept a dictionary by my bed while I read at night, and sometimes I’d just read that (nerd alert)! If you only read non-fiction, try reading some fiction now and again (and viceversa); both can be rewarding experiences.

This distance used to be soul crushing for me. This morning it was just a nice run before work. The road to health is a turbulent one; the key is to keep traveling it.

My doggie went adventuring this weekend. Over 10 miles hiking, 2 miles running, and 10 hours on a paddle board. After two shampoos and multiple brushings, he’s finally clean again. He had the time of his life.
