A year ago, I decided to take running more seriously than just jogging around. Ten months ago, I ran the Brooklyn Half and told myself I couldn’t get any faster. Last Sunday, I earned a fat PR (1:42:28) without specific half marathon training. Now, I don’t think I’ve peaked yet. I’ll never win races, but I’m happy to earn my small, personal Ws.
Two takeaways:
▪️ Consistency pays off.
▪️ It’s easy to tie yourself to arbitrary limits that you place on yourself. Identify those random roadblocks and throw them away.

Ran in the brooksrunning Hyperions for all of my recent PRs. So happy to have them on my journey this year. Also recovered the next day in head-to-toe Brooks.
