Well here it is my movie is out. The marketing is extremely grass roots. Asking for your support. Give it a watch and if you like it share it with your friends and followers. Let me know what you think.
Huge shoutout to @sacflyproductions and @kyle_ziggs for putting together something that I couldn't even imagine. It's amazing what happens when you let talented people run with it.

Excited to be part of the @deathmarchrunningco Running Team for 2026. Will be repping them at the @bbrevenge100 and whatever other races I hop into this year. Maybe I can even get on one of their Cards 🤔.

It's rare to catch one of these in the wild, but when you do don't be frightened. Listen for the distinctive "on your left" or their feet flopping down the hills.
Have you ever seen one?

It was such a blast running the @johnwaynecancerfoundation 25k last weekend with the @fleetfeetln Racing Team that I coached. Loved sharing the course with them and proud of the effort from each and every one of them.
Talking with the Crew Chief @ktep07 , said that you can learn something from every race, it doesn't have to be a giant 250 miler. The main thing I took away from this was confirmation that my approach to coaching and my own training works.
I had 3 goals going into the race:
✔️Keep to my strategy of walking (some call it power hiking) every hill over a certain grade.
✔️Stay consistent throughout the race.
✔️Have enough in the tank for a push at the end.
The race pretty much starts out with a flat mile and then a 200 ft climb over the next mile. I let everyone go by me and not let it hit my ego. I was probably 30th or 40th after that hill.
Then I did the same on every hill. Kept me with enough energy to push on the flats and let it go on the downhills. I was able to start passing people who burnt out on the hills. One guy even laughed and said "Hey didn't you walk the whole first hill?" as I passed at about mile 6. I was that guy during my first trail 50K. I let ego get ahold and BOMBED HARD. Thankfully I'll make every mistake once but I generally don't make the same one twice. So I kept to my strategy, and it paid off with a 5th overall and 1st out of 50 males in my age group. I'll take it.
I put an @strava screen shot to illustrate my average trail training pace. I don't come anywhere near this race pace during my training runs, I'm averaging 4.5 minutes slower on my training runs. This allowed me just let go on race day. Even after putting 67 miles on my legs the week of the race.
It's not about pushing your limits every day, it's about stacking easy effort miles with elevation on repeat. You can have a hard day or two, but consistency in your aerobic zone beats a heroic workout once or twice ANY DAY.
I didn't learn this overnight and I'm still learning in this trail game, but it feels good when experience shows and I'm able to pull a little pep out of these pack mule legs.

We got this Medal Monday post right under the wire (on the west coast anyway).
Huge CONTRATULATIONS to our SoCal Runner Coaching Athlete @superwhe on her completion of the Sedona Canyons 125 during the @cocodona250 last week.
She was on the waiting list for the 250 and had the 125 as a backup. So we trained like she was going to take on the 250 and she went out and smashed her training. She had a few tune up races during the training block, had huge climbing days, and dealt with a horrible east coast winter. With all that she was consistent and determined. One reason I love this community is because people are just in it for love of the game. She picked up a few new friends that were just out there looking for runners to pace. She was crewed by her husband @dhposer , who kept me informed along the way.
She finished and earned another buckle for her resume. Good luck in the lottery for Coco. Rest up and recover we will be back to it soon enough.

The @fleetfeetln Racibg Team wrapped up the spring season with the @johnwaynecancerfoundation Grit Series. They had a great training block training along side the athletes taking on the @ocmarathon . Hills, trail, speed days, and strength training powered these athletes to the finish line. We had other runners from the community come out to support our racers and it was great seeing them cheering along the course.
It was a gorgeous day for a trail run, and although it was a tough course the finish line was full of smile. That's what it's all about.
Huge thank you to everyone at the @johnwaynecancerfoundation for putting on a great event.
At Fleet Feet Laguna Niguel No One Races Alone. If you want to join an awesome community come join us on Saturdays at 7:30 for our run from the store, or sign up for our Summer Speed Program.
