Notes from the middle

The Part Where I Write It Down.

This is where the polished version gets left at the door. The wins, the screwups, the things I’m proud of, and the things I’d rather pretend never happened.

Expect some strength, sobriety, mental health, questionable decisions, long runs, sore muscles, and whatever else is taking up too much space in my head that week. I’m interested in the parts of progress that don’t photograph particularly well—the plateaus, the second guesses, the days when discipline loses the argument, and the small choices that somehow add up to something bigger. Some of it will be useful. Some of it might just be me thinking out loud. Either way, it’ll be honest.

FROM THE LATEST

The latest from the messy middle.


01

Strength, sweat & starting over

Training, running, tire flips, setbacks, and figuring out what getting stronger means beyond the numbers.

02

Clearheaded, more or less

Sobriety, mental health, uncomfortable realizations, and learning what happens when I stop numbing the hard parts.

03

Everything that doesn’t fit neatly

Life between the categories: bad days, good ideas, weird thoughts, small wins, and whatever feels worth writing down.
