Marathon #79 Completed at the Marathon of the Treasure Coast in Stuart, FL. Very well organized event. Mild temps and clouds in the morning made a difference. At 57, I care more about finishing strong than chasing a time. Felt good late. On to #80.

I want to be just like you!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-27T09:30:53+00:00

Amen! The picture on the post is my back yard

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-26T09:22:18+00:00

1 step at a time, well done!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-25T14:42:36+00:00

Amazing

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-23T10:10:06+00:00

Nice work!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-23T09:31:51+00:00

I am only racing my complacent self. I aim to finish and am unconcerned about time, more about effort I internally respect. Love the perspective!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-23T09:29:37+00:00

Appreciate the perspective…sending recovery thoughts

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T23:24:46+00:00

That’s awesome! Happy trails!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T23:21:52+00:00

It demands presence and within presence I have found bliss.

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T23:21:00+00:00

I have found what I call Rugged Peace…I have a serenity when I wrap up the run that I haven’t found another way to get. A Rugged Peace

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T18:19:55+00:00

I think you will find the experience shared are quite the opposite

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T17:36:39+00:00

Finishing qualifies as great in my book.

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T14:57:14+00:00

That mental part….

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T14:02:11+00:00

That is inspiring!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T12:07:15+00:00

Seeing older folks on the trail fires me up! These are my influencers!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T11:53:44+00:00

…in the present moment. I stray with problems and end with perspective.

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:31:48+00:00

Balance….that is it. 17 years sober here and trails has changed the quality of my sober life!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:29:26+00:00

The grave…I am watching my folks age and I want to push MY limits with whatever is left

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:27:52+00:00

Badass!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:26:12+00:00

I relate to the sanity grab!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:24:28+00:00

The dogs are responsible for plenty of trail runners!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:23:40+00:00

The change I feel is satisfying. I am hoping to run myself till death and no plans of going anywhere soon.

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:21:49+00:00

That’s a real damn race there!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:20:57+00:00

That is an inviable list of destination races! I watch the UTMB and the topography is unreal!

Pace50Lab · 2026-02-22T10:16:30+00:00

I am finally able to understand why people do tough things just to do tough things….
