Running a 10k in under 60 minutes was a New Years Resolution for 2026. I say was because it just happened. Trust the process.

Would be nice to have Sweet Hangs sometime soon…

8k while breathing through my nose. 3x 5k intervals - which all felt great. Then 3k slow to get my heart rate to settle. Total 16 miles. This one wasn’t about setting any records but what I thought was some good drill work, confidence building, and time on my feet. Nice bounce back from Thursday.

Bawby ❤️❤️❤️

Putting myself out there. If you have a podcast and wanna talk about Forza Horizon 6 I would love to join you and totally geek out.

MORNING STREAM! ITS FORZA TIME LIVE NOW twitch.tv/carpoolgamin...

I don't understand how the hell Forza Horizon 6 looks so good. And it runs beautifully on console and PC. The music is excellent as always. The driving is excellent as always. Like...all of it is excellent. As always. Hoping we don't lose sight of just how Top Tier Playground Games is at this.

Sharing the low points if I’m posting about the marathon training. This is the type of run that makes me want to quit running AND content creation AND most other endeavours. Absolutely soul crushing. Nothing in the tank. Dead legs. Panicked breathing. Full of quit. I won’t quit. Just need a rest.

“And I’ve barely raced” I feel that big time. Spending a lot of my time just driving around the gigantic map.

I wanted to do something a little different with this review so I recorded the video while driving home from work. Impossible to script which I think worked out fairly well but I did miss a couple key points that I’ll cover more on The Xbox Drive tomorrow. Likes, Shares, and Comments appreciated ❤️

OOF! River Valley Stairs and Hills session humbled me big time. Lots of work to do still. But I’ll see those hills again soon.

Felt great nice and easy until last 5k. Oof. Still good. Had to do my long run today because tomorrow is Mothers Day.

All of May 2025 vs 8 Days of May 2026. So far so good.

3k warmup. 9k “fast”. 1k cool down. Now I gotta go get the kids to school. Tricky to fit all this in. I’ve been getting a little comfy in Zone 2 so today was a confidence booster that I can sustain a good pace and not panic in Zones 3 and even 4.

honestly this thumbnail should be in the CPG Museum

It's time for another monthly round up of indie games! Join @fulishfuji.com and @hoppydoxiegaming.bsky.social as they make a list of indies that should be part of the "Mini Indie Van Pass", if it was a thing. What indie games would you want to see on an indie games subscription service? 👀

The Xbox Drive has truly changed my life. Thank you to everyone who's been on this journey with me. It's thanks to YOU that I am entrusted with opportunities like this. I don't take it for granted. Looking forward to sharing my thoughts with you on YouTube, Twitch, and the podcast starting May 14.

Interval training. First three 3k at zone 2. Then fast 1k at a time. This is with a 2-3min rest between k from 4-9. Then an easy k cooldown.

Streaming SAROS right now! twitch.tv/carpoolgamin...

What Star Wars Game am I buying on Steam today?

Fans of Internet Heartthrob Seth Sturgill are gonna want to check out this video!

Really pleased with this one. Goal was to keep my heart rate at or below 140bpm until 2 hours. Then I had lots in the tank to gradually ramp up my final 4K. Anyway. You can do anything you set your mind to. Believe in yourself and get after it.

Yeah sooo if you have a podcast and wanna talk about Saros…I’m here.

Just beat the second boss on SAROS and good LORD this game is pure excellence. A total Sean Game. I was jumpin and dashin and shieldin and blastin and shootin and UGH SO GOOD!

We were just discussing Xbox sales on PS5 in the recent Sweet Hangs. Looks like we have updated reported sales numbers (understand some disregard alinea) - kotaku.com/gears-war-e-...

LIVE NOW twitch.tv/carpoolgamin...

See you in 25 minutes!!!

Only one other month (June 2023, 113.87kms) logged more mileage. Hoping to stay healthy and do even more in May.

That shirt ❤️❤️❤️

First outdoor run of the year. Very happy with introducing some serious hills into the training. Happy with executing the marathon training plan as close as I can. Genuinely putting my best effort forward and I’ll remember this during my marathon attempt in August.

tomorrow on patreon

It was legit so long ago I'm not sure... I think it was $5/hour to serve at a dinner hall and mostly work weddings until 3-4am.

Happy Saros release week everyone! We made it!

Holy crap someone check on @ryanturford.bsky.social

now!

Oof. This was supposed to be a faster run but I took off too quick and ran out of gas early. Good lesson learned (again). Also apparently 6.2miles isn’t quite 10k so my watch only awarded me a 5k achievement. I’ll get em next time.

The procrastination was REAL. Started an hour late. But got it done.

Completely and utterly in awe of my friend @milesofamanda.bsky.social An absolutely brilliant performance at the Boston Marathon today. But more than that. Excellence in training. S Tier commitment, dedication, and discipline. All while being THE BEST person! I am inspired. Way to go Amanda ❤️

An EASY recommend from me

Unpopular take but here goes… Gaming can be exceptionally affordable. There are deals like this for astoundingly great games all the time. You don’t even have to look hard for them. Buying brand new games. Yes. Expensive. But so are new cars off the lot. I drive a 2011 lol.

OMG this felt incredible. One of my goals in 2026 is to hit a 25” 5K. Still a ways to go but we got time and I’m stubborn.

I heard from a wise friend that the 10k is the cornerstone of marathon training. This felt great. Nice and easy. The hardest part was showing up. I had the “I don’t wannas” big time this morning.

You have open permission to tag me in literally anything about Artemis II. I want to see it all. In fact, I don’t want to miss a thing.

Finished this and listened to the Super Mario World soundtrack and honestly that was about as perfect a moment as it gets.

LOOK AT THAT SHIT! FUCKING AMAZING!! (note: I really like space)

Ugh. That was hard. But I’m so, so glad I didn’t quit. At one point I legit stopped and then started again. That was a moment. A parallel universe Sean went home and felt okay about that run. Me. I hurt lol.

The four crew members of Artemis II are officially further from Earth than any other humans in history
