ASICS Novablast 5 Review

ASICS, definitely one of the leading brands in the running shoe industry right now, is an acronym for the Latin phrase “anima sana in corpore sano”, translating to “a sound mind in a sound body“. I think a lot of new ASICS shoes and shoe technology really embody this, and the Novablast series in particular…

12/7/24 – Day 57- Life’s Incredible Again

Woke up at 7:00, took a GU gel, and went out for an easy 3.5 mile run with Merideth and Cailey. The weather was 19 degrees when I woke up. My ankle is bothering me, but with some strength building and just getting back into it it should be fine. Post run, I ate some…

12/6/24 – Day 56 – Worm Time

Woke up this morning, ate some yogurt, and headed to my business class! I had to give a presentation today, but it was pretty easy and chill. That was my final class of the 1st semester! Pretty wild. After this, I headed home, scrambled some lunch, and kinda just killed time. I was bored, so…

12/3/24 – Day 55 – Madness in the Fieldhouse

I woke up this morning at 8:30ish, busted my butt to get to the fueling station by 9. After this, I went on a three mile run. Somebody had their lawn mower out on the grass! I couldn’t believe it! There was frost on the lawn, and their lawn mower was just out! Post run,…

12/2/24 – Day 54 – Side Quest Completed

Woke up this morning, cleaned up, then hit the fueling station. Definitely feeling very blessed to have that resource. Post breakfast, I went to study hall. I don’t have too much work this week, so my time in study hall today was spent a combination of goofing off, and being semi productive. At one point…

11/21/24 – Day 53 – Pokémon Frenzy

Right now, me, Brad, Garrett, Mitch, Seth, and I are all playing Pokémon Go. It’s crazy on a college campus- so many people play, and people are just doing raids and fighting gyms everywhere! I’ve gotten several legendary Pokémon from just hopping in a raid with a ton of other people. I woke up this…

11/18/24 – Day 52 – Snow, Snow, Snow!

Woke up this morning, made myself a breakfast of eggs and cereal, and did a bunch of laundry. The weather was horrible and there was heavy snow most of the morning, so I figured I’d wait it out as best as I could so I could ride my scooter in the nicest weather possible. I…

11/16/24 – Day 51 – Ticket Punched!
The team had the NCAA West Regional Meet on Friday, and they ran great! They placed 4th in a tough region, and qualified for nationals! Super exciting, to be on a team training with guys that can make it that far in the post season. I woke up this morning at like 10:30! Haven’t slept…

Tribute to Eagle Island Poem
Tribute to Eagle Island Prelude: Dear Eagle Island, thy great potholes shimmer so bright, Despite the incredible masses of them, individually they shine bright. Oh, how lovely it would be, to nuke the entire park, No more agony and pain, tears at the dreary start. Every year children beg, for a new place to run…
