While I may sound like a broken record at times (e.g. keep it simple, build habits, this is supposed to be fun, etc.), I do pride myself on not recycling emails. BUT, every year around this time, I love to share this with our Crew. It’s a 3-min read about how we...
Well, the streak is over. Our annual, 8-mile trail run happening this Saturday that I’ve been doing for close to 10 years has been cancelled for me due to a calf injury I got running yesterday. The worst part? I felt great on the trail, then literally 4 steps onto the pavement…and my...
Did you see that the Mets signed Juan Soto away from the Yankees for a cool 15-yr, $765M contract? Good lord. Maybe we should have all played baseball. Speaking of the Yankees, to paraphrase one of the most beloved St. Louis natives and fellow Yankee, Yogi Berra… “Baseball is 90 percent mental. The...
“I’m gonna get started on January 1st". -99.9% of the population Yeah, I get that. Whether you’re trying to lose weight, get stronger, get more toned, or whatever your goal is… The next 22 days gives us a little time to get mentally prepared and have a...
Welcome to the weekend from 30,000 feet above the great state of Illinois. I’m on my way to Farmington CC in Charlottesville for a weekend “working” with a group of awesome dudes who love this crazy game. Today may be the shortest email I’ve ever written because I came across the graphic...
Every year, we do an 8-mile run through the hilly woods up on the Mississippi River (it’s next Saturday). It’s pretty miserable while it’s happening, but the sense of accomplishment afterwards is equally as awesome. So, every year we hang out with runners and I ask myself, “Man, do I...
Not only is it the holiday season, but also the “exaggerated, misleading, and scientifically unfounded exercise program claims” season. For the second year in a row, I’ve been hearing the same cringy ad on the radio for a local weight loss clinic, so I checked out their website this morning. ...
Last night, I watched the Netflix documentary, “Reagan”. Back in the 80s when he was the POTUS, I was still pretty young with zero interest in politics, so I was curious learn more about him. I’ll let you judge the movie for yourself, but one scene really struck a chord...
You know how when you recently learned something, you start to see it everywhere? It’s called the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon or Frequency Illusion (yes, I absolutely had to Google it). And it started happening to me last year with Vitamin D. I started to go down the rabbit hole and never...
Yesterday, I went off on a little diatribe about the importance of staying hydrated when you’re feeling under the weather during these winter months. Which again, I cannot recommend more – sleep it off, and stay hydrated. That’s always been my recipe. As I often do, I went down a...
