One last hurrah at home with all my outfits and all my shoes before it’s time for the annual month long pilgrimage to the US Open!
Week 7 of 19: Overview
Week 7 Workouts
Pics or it didn’t happen but take my word for it… even MORE golf was played this weekend. Before I left town for a while, Nate took a few days off from work so we could spend some extra time together and we hit it (it = the golf ball) HARD.
Best Run Worst One
No week’s complete without the Shoes News
Look at you Hoka claiming the second spot this week! To think I once told 35,000 on TikTok that I didn’t like these shoes. Tastes change, ok?
The proof is in the pavement
I really wish Brooks had a max squish shoe without the high drop. The drop is what makes my shin mad, and the cushion is what keeps the ouch at bay. I’m still doing alright with the Levitates and Launches, which I couldn’t say last summer. While my shin still flares up sometimes, I’d argue it’s somewhat on the mend.
Pace Zones 80-20 Rule and blah blah blah
It’s pretty obvious I’m having trouble going hard in the heat. Whoever prefers summer running to winter running is absolutely messed up in the head.

Show Me the Money
As for fundraising, it’s been a little bit of a slow summer. $40 raised is better than $0 raised, but I’ve still got a bit of work left ahead of me. To support my endeavor, you can use the blue button below to donate.
