Is this even a strawberry at this point?

Before and after trephination of my runners toe!

Amazing how even 6 DAYS after injury there was so much pressure and fluid build up. The relief was instant.

Whiplash (2014) came out ten years ago when I was 16, and I:

-had no dreams
-no direction in life
-had a unexplainable desire for achievement

Ten years later, I’ve fixed the first 2.

This movie is still the lit flame under me. I don’t play drums, but I will do what I need to.

Calling all runners, podiatrist/chiropodists, urgent/emergency docs:

5 days post marathon, subungual hematoma as maintained baseline pain, size and pressure. Minimal improvement. Resting everyday (except shift work), acetaminophen prn.

Best advice?

And that’s it! I’m hooked.

I wonder where I’ll donate the excess 27 minutes to, but here’s to finding out!

See you on the road.

2. I just let the race happen.

It was my first marathon! I had to leave the ego at the door. Weeks leading up people asked me my goal time.

“3:45” was my answer. My garmin estimated me at ~3:36.

Either way when I was at the starting block, I just let it happen!

1. I slowed the F down in my training.

In my early running days I found pace to be the goal, doing what I equate to binge drinking for pace.

In this training block I RESET!! Low and slow thanks to HR tracking and “Zone 2” hype.

4. ENJOY!

Toronto Marathon was beautiful. Exploring new neighborhoods of a city I thought I was familiar with.

A guy came from behind me @ 30km and said he’s been following me for 10km.

We beasted the thing together, refusing to let each other walk.

Evan you’re the MAN

This is the dream car

You can say that…

But I think children benefit more from being taught by humans.

As someone who is teaching myself a degree, I would love this to help confirm concepts (I use text GPT for this reason).

But I can’t imagine sitting my kids in front of this.

PFF Smells like this vibe

“Fall in love with the expenditure of energy toward something that may or may not be on the correct path”

I have a full-time job that’s a great, fulfilling career.

I’m back in school full time because I simply think I can do more. We’ll see what happens.
