Good stuff Jeremy. I know you from Strava and I really enjoyed reading this. I went through a similar epiphany in my early 40s and eventually ran a 19:20 5K and a 3:22 marathon. Fortunately, I never completely let myself go again, but as I approach 50, I am not nearly that fast anymore. You nailed it when your wrote about fitness in your early 40s. Thanks for sharing. I also enjoyed what your wrote about your streak.

I appreciate this, David! Your comments throughout the streak on Strava, despite never having met, helped create a sense of community. That's exactly what we're building here. And I must say, a 3:22 marathon is quite impressive! Look forward to future conversations here (and out on a future run perhaps?).

40, you’re still a young buck! “Do not go where the path leads, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” -RWE

Haha I remember that tough Mudder and how a few folks really kickstarted their lives and seeing the change in you. Well done old man! Can’t believe it was all 10 years ago...
