Congratulations!!! Best to you in your next chapter !!! Question, how long does it take to recover from covid and run effectively. I am fit and 75 and run about 15 miles/week. No complications from covid. Expect slower and shorter, just a perspective.
I enjoyed your newsletter , was alerted to half marathons, but now focus on trails, and ultras, ran my first 100 miler the end of July so yes I continue to run , and have been a runner for over 50 yrs, when I have to return to shorter road races will reconnect
I am disappointed that you are leaning away from listing races. I have found some of my favorite places on your list and would not have chosen them without the review. Hopefully you will continue with a few and as always I follow halfmarathon.net.
I'm glad you've healed and are ready to go... For the first time in my life, I've got shin splints ... Decided to add weights & cross train... I might have overdone it... Any suggestions on how to get rid of them??? My shoes are crying in my closet... LOL
Love your honesty and reading about your journey to seek truth through running. Totally relatable. Your words speak volumes. Great move on your part. Looking forward to your upcoming reads. Always inspire and you will succeed!
Congratulations on the sale and welcome back! Started training again and am signed up for a few races in the Fall and Spring - looking forward to cooler weather! Any suggestions on how often a person should do strength training per week if training for a half or full marathon?
Yay welcome back. Good to have your letters as accountability words for me as I ramp up my training again - finding good running spots in Texas summer is hard!
This summer has been pretty busy but I’m almost done with physical therapy! Yay! Over these next few weeks I will finally be able to get into the swing of running again! I’m ready for the those beautiful fall runs here in Montana! Fall is definitely the best season!
Welcome back! The weather has finally cooled to a respectable mid-80’s here in southern Indiana. I am training for a half marathon in Chugwater, WY, over Labor Day weekend. Why Chugwater? Why not?
Glad to see you back! I've kept up with running this summer as I'm training for my first Ultra in September (the Red Feather Jamboree 50k). I've never run that far and I am intimidated as hell by the distance - but I'm gonna do it anyways! And what I've learned through this last year is that I am the best version of myself when I run. The joy of moving my body, being totally present to it, being my own cheerleader, and being constantly amazed by how strong it is and grateful for the beautiful places that it brings me. There's something metaphoric about running akin to life - the bond created with fellow runners through the shared commitments and struggles. Some miles are easier than others, just like some days are easier than others. It's perseverance through those hard miles that gives me confidence to persevere through those hard days. And gratitude. SO MUCH GRATITUDE.
Yay! You're back. Perhaps a different mode, but who cares!
I'm still running. Barefoot now, and on trails. Got my mojo back on and am ready to do miles!
Congrats on selling the website. We'll look forward to the newsletter!

Change can be hard, but I sense an excitement in your writing that hasn't been there for awhile! So glad you're back and recharged!

That is great news! I can’t imagine splitting time between the two. Glad you can focus on the newsletter!

Echo these congrats Terrell! Also hope that the heat and humidity of August dissipates and we can all enjoy some light air to run in!

Welcome back! Halfway through my own 6 week break, and has been enlightening to spend this much time away from the keyboard, Google Meet and Slack.
