When life gets in the way | Stolen identity, dead laptop, cancer tests | Best training week?

When life gets in the way, how do we face and overcome adversity? Just run! In a span of weeks, my identity was stolen, my laptop died, and a battery of medical tests made me hit the pause button. Time to reboot! In this video, I share stories that we can't make up and how I rebooted my running and completed my best training week in 2026. Maybe it's not too late for the Dam Yeti 55K and The Whole Enchilada 50K in June. We'll bring you along the iconic Appalachian Trail for the Sunday long run as we bring you up to date.
