It’s been SO long since I have posted on here. And I do apologize for that. However, I think I’m just lazy sometimes. I thought I would update all you Ohio people on what’s been going on! So yeah, let’s see where do I start? There was the whole covid situation back in March and… Continue reading Life Update

Trader Joe’s Food Review
Most of you know that I have an obsession with Trader Joe’s. It started last year, but has grown exponentially due the easy access of like ONE HUNDRED TRADER JOE’S WITHIN A 20 MILE RADIUS. Actually, I don’t know if that’s true but there are a lot of them out here in LA compared to… Continue reading Trader Joe’s Food Review
Los Angeles Cycling
With all my races getting cancelled, slowly but surely, I kind of lost motivation to do anything since March. I ran the Los Angeles marathon (which you can read about here) but literally like 3 days later that, LA shutdown. All the gyms and pools were closed, plus it actually rained a lot here in… Continue reading Los Angeles Cycling
Strawberry Peak Trail
I know I need to get better about writing on here more consistently! For awhile there really wasn’t much to write about since we were all stuck inside our homes in a cocoon of self-loathing and depression. But now the world is starting to slowly reopen and my cocoon is beginning to hatch into a… Continue reading Strawberry Peak Trail

Superfrog 70.3 Race Report
One Sunday I did my seventh half Ironman! It was Superfrog 70.3 in San Diego. The reason I ended up doing this race is because originally I had registered for Ironman Wisconsin (full Ironman) before I knew I would be moving to LA. Wisconsin took place the weekend before this past weekend, which was only… Continue reading Superfrog 70.3 Race Report
2019 Steelhead 70.3 Race Report
I did Steelhead 70.3 yesterday which is my second time doing this particular race. I didn’t have very high expectations since I just did an Olympic last Sunday and wasn’t really following any sort of training plan. On Saturday, Jordan and I made our way up to Benton Harbor, MI for packet pickup. Benton Harbor… Continue reading 2019 Steelhead 70.3 Race Report
