what is second half strong?

Second Half Strong is where I document my ultra running journey. The training, races, gear, numbers, experiments, mistakes, and the occasional good decisions!

I started running when I was 42 and I ran my first half marathon in April of 2025. I quickly found myself pursuing ultra distances with my first 100 mile attempt at Zion in April of 2026 and now I will running Cocodona in May of 2027.

I am set on making the second half of my life stronger than the first, and am inviting you to follow along the journey.
