Greetings! Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts where I share what’s been on my mind. Enjoy!

Training Ramblings (Big a 50k - May 2)
The past five weeks of training has gone better than expected.
I’ve been trying to keep it simple:
1 lift, 1 running workout, 2 easy runs
The lift is deadlifts, pull ups, split squats and strict press. Moderately heavy, low reps. Typically on Monday.
Tuesday is running workout day. This means some kind of hard interval—typically on the Air Runner. I’ve done 400s, miles, 800s, and 5 minute intervals.
Last week I did 4 runs within a week for the first time, and this week I’m bumping it up to 5. Next week, I’ll probably go back to 4-I don’t want to overdue it.
3 weeks till race day!
Speaking of Race Day
The Big A 50k is in need of volunteers! Get involved.
Serious Hang Time
Nearly 3 minutes is legit!
World Famous Open Beer Can Get Up
Enjoy this video from 6 years ago today-when we hosted a virtual Turkish get up workshop, and I showed off by doing it balancing an open beer can on my head.
Thanks for reading, see you in the gym!
