Considering the pellet grill/smoker + Blackstone griddle combo this summer.

Any opinions/input on this setup?

Nothing improves my mood like warm weather and the sun. It remains undefeated.

Scottie Scheffler getting arrested…

- at a major
- after winning 4 of his last 5 starts
- the week after the birth of his 1st child
- coupled with that mug shot in orange

…is one of the most unlikely sports stories ever.

Of note, I have him winning on Sunday. 🏆

Life is too short to read lackluster books or bad writing.

Going back to my favorite author - Stephen King.

First time reading Salem’s Lot.

This is a fun watch. Excited to see the Clayton Young The Olympic Games Paris build.

ASICS America

A fun and scenic out-and-back in Vancouver.

The best way to see a city is on foot.
Convince me I’m wrong.

This afternoons run was powered by HOKA and David Senra

Wrapping up Mayo Clinic’s pain medicine fellowship interviews and couldn’t be more impressed. No doubt I’ll be learning a thing or two from these future fellows. 🚀

Broken record time…
Physical activity does not cause worsening OA. Being inactive led to more disease progression.

I promise you, if you start running every day, the distance and pace doesn’t matter, it’ll change your life.

It’s that simple nudge towards a better way and healthier lifestyle, and it just snowballs from there.

Real men wear pink.

Decided to FAFO. And, well, I found out. 💨💨 Nike

My grandmother’s PCP just told her that “your feet get bigger as you get older and that’s what’s causing your peripheral neuropathy.”

I must have missed that lecture in medical school, residency, fellowship, and 6 years of academic medicine.

Learning everyday.

Can you do your job?

I won’t expect anything more.
I won’t accept anything less.

It’s so simple, but creates the basic foundation for expectations in the workplace.

My Grandma's Marathon Week 9 Recap

Su: 20mi with marathon pace efforts

About 150 miles on the HOKA Cielo X1, and the rubber is peeling off the right sole. I realize this shoe isn’t designed for longevity, but at about $2/mile at this point, it would be hard to recommend. Fun to run in though!

At the 2023 TCS London Marathon, Kelvin Kiptum announced himself to the world with a win.

He smashed the course record with the second-fastest marathon time ever. He then went on to break the world record in October at the Chicago Marathon

He will be missed tomorrow and always.

Jon Hagedorn, MD Susan Moeschler MD Mayo Clinic Department of Anesthesiology Dr. Natalie Strand Mayo Clinic That was my most favorite sign I ever saw during one of my marathons. It was a war vet in a wheelchair with a flag attached to the back, double-leg amputee, and he was holding a sign that said “Run for those of us who can’t.”

I still tear up about that. 🥺

Half tights are the best running bottoms and you can’t convince me otherwise. 🫡

Congratulations Dr. Jon Hagedorn, MD !
