Trekkie. Ultra runner. History dork. Animal fanatic. Ecstatic empty nester.
I finally got 1/4 of my kids to try a trail run today. This is the best possible start to 2026. Happy New Year!

Illinois and Missouri trails: pay attention or eat shit. I am apparently a fan of the latter, as i am known for going home bloody.

I’ve been getting a lot of ultramarathon content on my algo lately and I actually appreciate it because I’ve learned that 1) like 30% of most ultras is walking/hiking, not actually running, 2) none of these people are fuckable fitness people, they have no toenails and their nips are just callouses

Everyone deserves this kind of love. Spot and Chicken have the kind of purity that comes from always having a full belly and a safe place to sleep.

My most recent rescue is a real heartbreaker. Infected wounds, giardia, FIV. And so sweet even my reactive demon dogs want to save him.

Kudos to the athletes at the Lake Springfield Triathlon! Every one of them thanked us for coming out. Most took the time to find the trash can. Vibes were amazing!

The face of the person who dropped 11 miles into a 10O mile race because her body said "No, thank you." My very first DNF. I usually just start laughing when everything goes to shit, but this time felt kinda serious kinda early. Awesome race, tho. 10/10.

I have gone full Illinois. I have conversations with my corn about how pretty my corn is. Corn is not a flex. Someone should probably come get me before Al Jourgensen shows up at my door to take away my goth card.

I wake up every morning admiring my yard like I've never seen a flower before. Apparently 49 is a good age for adding one more thing to be a dork about.

I am so proud of this kid, who is already tired of my "war fighter" jokes. It takes a strong person to take that oath during difficult times, knowing full well how it might turn out.

Abraham Lincoln Presidential Half Marathon is THE perfect road race. Campy as heck and a beautiful, hilly course. Also very friendly to us folks who are more frolickers than "runners".

Chicken would like to prove his grit with one warm tumble ride. He would have crushed that course.

An engineer drives to the Lebanon Correctional Institution every week. He’s a competitive runner, and he coaches some elite athletes. At the prison, he coaches some who've never run before.

Not satire, apparently. All I can think about is how badly that suit probably smells. Dude is so freaking gross.

This should be required reading. Us white folks are all-time champs at making excuses for unacceptable behavior in our communities. Contortionists, really. And we act surprised that Trump happened.
