running, reading, nonsense.
The Break of Dawn I guess the idea behind doing a month of running everyday in July is that it should be nice and dry and there’ll be no excuses not to hit the road. And it has been dry. It has also been extremely hot the last few days, so much so that the… Continue reading A Morning Run, Keeping Consistent, and a Good Cause Coastal 10k.
Another week, another Sunday Morning Stuff. But this time I’m actually here on a Sunday morning with a cup of coffee pre-long run writing this out as I always intended, a little Orville Peck on in the background. Very chill indeed.
