Great day for the D-High XC team winning the Boys Varsity overall, London winning the Varsity Girls overall and Jack winning and having 3 of the top 4 from Decatur in the JV Boys race. Tough course with some steep climbs and twisty descents so they ran great given that you had to throw time and pace out the window and just race.

The weekend included some racing with my kids and having family fun after. Fun to run on the Indian Mounds XC course yesterday for the first time ever and win the Masters trophy. SP won her age group and finished 7th OA! Dane and Jack did great in the most stacked age groups with both finishing in the Top 30 OA. This morning was a bike ride before church in soupy conditions chasing around a guy I have tried to catch for nearly 25 years. Thankfully he is slower now as well and rides just as much as me.

Excited to announce that we are hosting the first Decatur High School XC Youth Camp from June 17-21. Parents can sign their child up at the following link prior to June 5th to guarantee the correct t-shirt size: https://docs.google.com/forms/u/1/d/e/1FAIpQLSchnZqUbUxXc_2qFuuPW_qAvWudwIJ4AC9Ou7lKFopdvxvC-A/viewform

We are almost ready 😅

I have to say that May is now my least favorite month. Painting my masterpiece, or at least duplicating it today. The biggest risk I take every year is painting these course markings for the Cheaha Challenge on Hwy 9. Counting down from 11:59 PM on Sunday, May 19th and this event being in the rear view mirror because this one has been more difficult than the past two years combined.

The team went out and won their first team overall for both boys and girls teams yesterday in Falkville. Over 20 years since a team at Decatur High has done this. We circled this one at the beginning of the season and set out to win it. Proud of this team for buying in, executing and doing everything they could to get this victory.

Fun weekend of adventures. Yesterday was the first Cheaha Challenge training ride of the year. We had 32 riders start with us and take on the first half of the course with 5k feet of climbing and major wind gusts to go with it. Followed that up with some of the kids from track joining me on a long run for the first 7 miles. It was fun running with them and I ran home and added another 400 feet of climbing to finish with 11 miles and 800 feet of climbing on the day.

These girls just earned a new school record in the 4x400 for Decatur High School at AHSAA State Indoor Meet today. Proud of these girls for dropping 11 seconds off their team best when it counts the most!

Rounding out the power duration curve with a 30 minute test today. Tough conditions with the strong winds and blah weather today. Selfie to show how stoked I was about the weather after shaving the beard. Who knows what Mother Nature has in store for this year’s in two weeks, but I am running so be prepared for bad weather😬

The saying that you are the choices you make is true. If you want something bad enough then you will go out and get it, despite obstacles. If you live in the southeast, then you will face some tough weather conditions to train in this week. I won’t complain too much because I know it is worse in other areas of the US. This weekend was not “sunny and 70” either, but it was better than what lies ahead and some good workouts despite all of it. Keep working and improving, and making the choice to strive for your best each and every day. You won’t regret that. Now, back to running in Alabama’s best impression of Siberia in my gear.

Finally got to race with all the kids yesterday in the same race after having to skip the Turkey Trot due to illness. It was a lot of fun seeing the boys take off at first and put me in the hurt locker, but the tortoise eventually got cranking and I was able to take home the overall win. Dane and Jack got 3rd and 4th overall battling each other in a nice sprint to the line. We ran back and followed SP in as she won her age group for the second race in a row. Also, it was great to run in the Cruiser Splash Paint hat today. This is the best running hat on the market and it looks great!

Excited to team up with as an ambassador in 2024! They make the best looking running hats, and they don’t skimp on performance. Check them out and stay tuned for more information about Alter Ego gear at their website: https://alteregorunning.com

Got to race yesterday with some of the DHS XC team since we had no meet this weekend. Aiden, Dane and Ian decided to line up and do the 10k with me. Woke up to pouring rain that was not forecasted and it did not up until after the race. Made for some muddy and slick conditions on the wildlife refuge roads, but it was definitely better than the heat recently. I was fortunate to take the W with a time of 36:30. The boys exceeded their expectations, with Dane taking 3rd overall/1st age group, Ian in 4th overall/2nd in age group and Aiden finishing 3rd overall in the age group. Each of them running paces faster than the previous 5k they did in the heat. The racing game is mostly mental, and they now know they have more in them for the upcoming meet on the 9th. Big thanks to and for putting the races on!

The last several months have been challenging. The injury I sustained while training for Boston did not want to heal despite rest and easy bike rides. Luckily I was busy with two events to organize, but I kept dealing with the negative thoughts of wondering if I would be able to run any distance again without pain. The pain subsided in recent weeks after some specific strength and stretching work on my right foot, ankle and calf. I was able to race again this past weekend. Walking away with the win at this race meant a lot, but not as much as simply getting to push the pace again and not be in pain. Shockingly ran my personal best time for this race by over a minute despite the heat and humidity this year. Hopefully I can pull a little more fitness together for Woodstock before D-High XC season starts.

Dog days of summer are here, and this pup wanted to test out his new harness with the optional XC team practice today. He had a great time on the refuge roads with the kids, but had enough when we got back to the parking lot. He immediately informed me he would no longer participate so that I could get 7 miles in. I guess 6.7 will have to do. Maybe we will both get back in shape by the end of summer.

Time for a new order for some new goal events later this year because my stash has sadly run out now that Boston is complete. If you have not tried the chews or bars before then give them a shot.

In a few days I will finally be on the start line for the marathon that got me into wanting to run a marathon. The pandemic ruined the first attempt, but three years on and all that is left is to pack and fly to Boston. This was a tough buildup though with a foot and ankle injury since January. Probably should’ve pulled the plug, but I have missed out on 3 of the 4 major marathons I have entered due to illness or work. I want the chase of this goal to end. It won’t be a PR, and likely will be one of the slowest times of any Wave 1 runners. Just finishing and enjoying the experience of one last marathon is the goal. Weather looks wet, which is to be expected because I always bring the best weather with me to any marathon. I will embrace it and enjoy whatever gets thrown in the way. To paraphrase George Harrison, even if the sun don't shine, it's all right, I’m going to the end of the line.

Officially getting to welcome Forrest to the family. Like Forrest Gump, he ran and ran and ran, but decided to stop on Saturday. I was glad to pick him up and bring him in. He got a clean bill of health from the vet, and was not chipped, so he has a forever home now. Looking forward to running with my new training partner.
