If 16-year-old me could see me now, she would be my number one hater. Right next to her would be twenty-something me. They would be in the gc talkinā ābout all the time (and money) I spend on something that Iām objectively bad at. Yāknow, Iām sure if you dug up my old tweets circa my early thirties, youād find some questionable takes on marathoners, too. Straight up hateration all around!
Well, 2.5 years and 5 marathons in, Iām barely scratching the surface of something really special. I continue to invest in my relationship with running because, first and foremost, it is a relationship with myself. I respect the honest hard work. I love the process. I trust my commitment to the journey.
I often lament beginning at 39ā¦I just wish I had started sooner. But the deeper I get into it, I realize I wouldnāt have had the vocabulary of life experiences to comprehend what running is here to teach me now. It had to happen this wayāI wouldāve hated it otherwise.
This block, I learned a lot about running and, of course, things not about runningāsome of the lessons still too tender to share (e.g., detachment from outcome, the nature of desire, love and self-concept, etc). And while Iām not one to keep my earnestness aside, Iām learning that maybe I should (within reason and with great trust).
I have a lot of gratitude to broadcast and will get around to it with a huge photo dump otw. Iāve already thanked most of yāall, but you deserve your flowers in every which way.

You know that drive on the way to see somebody youāre feeling, but so many things remain unsaid between you two? This is that mix you throw on in the whip to rehearse those imaginary convos in your head. Not too fast, not too slow, just short & sweet enough for the ride to see your future boo. Enjoy episode #023 w/ @angfoo , live on Youtube & Soundcloud ā¤ļøāš„

i wrote this long-winded piece about running that ended up being nothing about running and all about matters of the heart, but nobody got time to read that shit fr. so, instead, here are some pics of the hardware i picked up in 2025.Ā
you already know itās not about this though. with me, it never is.
i continue to love the process above all. it is the romance of discipline that fulfills me. i can be a lot better in so many ways and the distance will always reveal my shortcomings as much as it does my strengths. i like that about the work though: itās honest.
to the miles aheadā¦my devotion to you is nice & slow.
always,
ang
taking myself out for intentional time alone has been a core practice of mine for as long as i can remember (iām a date girl, fr). itās also part and parcel to my relationship with LA: being fully present with the city and having a conversation about what it means to me.
hard to narrow down, but hereās a solo date for every month of 2025:
jan: made lasagna soup + watched the faye webster tiny desk on repeat
feb: made valentine day cards at lacma + corner bar seat for tapas at bar siesta
mar: mac ayres at hollywood forever masonic lodge + night cap at northern thai
apr: too much yama at state historic (picnic in the park 4ever)
may: saturdays off the 405 concert series at the getty, but i did the kidās scavenger hunt first
jun: kamasi washington live at lacma (this was amazing and deserves its own separate post)
jul: silver lake star partyāmy new fav party this year! (northern thai after ofc)
aug: highest vision workshop w/trinket party
pre-bday: steak frites at bar etoileā¦unfortunately, i do love to wine and dine myself
actual bday: sushi masuyoshi (5 seats, byob, incredible omakase experience, 10/10 A++ i highly recommend) + little brother farewell tour
post-bday: la la land in concert (mia & sebastianās theme live w/the dtla skyline in the back >>>)
oct: lbm medal monday: lasortedās for dinner, triste for wine, lasita for dessert (the next day)
nov: moca geffen first friday (go see monuments!), sat at the hearth (a must) at maydan
just realized i never took myself out in december! all goodā¦it was a busy month catching up with friends and family and end of year fatigue really took me out.
grateful for another year and that i am my own favorite company š«
