Day504 Oil Change – A slice of life
Disclaimer: This post might might give you a foul mood. I was debating whether to post it or not, since it is off topic or one I don’t enjoy writing because I come across as fussy and complaining. Several things happened that kind of put me off balance (this happened a few weeks ago). I […]

Day502 reflection
TLDR – reflection on why I love running. This topic comes up from time to time, and it might not have been my first time thinking through it While driving my friend to the airport over the weekend, my friend asked me a question I think deserves a good answer. She was someone I haven’t […]

Day500 Yay! 500
TL;DR – A regular title Review 22.12 would be enough for my highlighted events since last year (Day450). No I did not run 500 races. When I reread the last 50-day report of Day450, my two 100 mile races stood out. Honestly, I couldn’t top it this year. I have two 100 mile races this […]

Day479 lost and found
TL;DR – some self talk to get me into training again. Goals for this year. The year is not over yet Three weeks since I finished the 100 mile race, and I am in a rough stretch emotionally. It is expected as with any big race that there will be a big let down when […]

Day478 Memorial weekend
After a big race, my body is recovering well. Unlike other races that usually I would be in a near broken state, I am pretty much recovered after couple days resting. It could be I was not running that hard. It felt like another marathon, I just bounced back after a good night sleep. Maybe […]

Day476 i got this / anticipation
TL;DR – MMT race plan and bigger goals Season 12 has been rough. I thought I would have the perfect season. After 6 years of running, and two whole years of ultra training, that originally it seems I would have the least distractions and I would be well prepared for my 100 mile race at […]
