Fantastic Friday ✨

2026 will be a big year: I’m aiming to climb the height of Everest on my bike, run a marathon, and finish strong with a full Ironman. How do I get there? Consistency and systems. One of my biggest tools is ChatGPT. I’ve synced it with my calendar to plan 8–10 hours of weekly training, … Read more

🌅 Discipline Over Motivation

Motivation is fleeting. Discipline is what gets you across the finish line whether in sport or in business. This week, I began Season 4 of my Master Swim training. At 4:30 a.m., when the alarm goes off, there’s always a decision to make: stay in bed or show up. I choose to train before the house wakes, … Read more

The Book I Keep Coming Back To

Do you ever read a book, set it on a shelf, and never open it again? I’ve done that many times but not with Atomic Habits. I keep coming back to this book. In fact, I’ve loaned it out so often that most people I gave it to ended up buying their own copy shortly … Read more

🚴 Life Behind Bars

When I was younger, I thought “behind bars” meant being trapped. Now, it’s where I feel the most free. The bars I’m talking about? Handlebars. There’s something about throwing a leg over one of my bikes—whether it’s my fixie, single speed, or even my e-bike—that resets my mind. Some days, it’s gravel roads stretching 20 … Read more

Fantastic Friday – Small Wins Build Big Victories

This week, I’ve been thinking about the early stages of big goals. The kind that seem overwhelming at first glance — the ones that take months (or even years) of steady effort to reach.

“Pedals Down: The Ride Begins”

Right now, I’m rolling out one of the year’s most iconic, challenging, and rewarding events — RAGBRAI. It will be warm, the days will be long, and the road will be filled with people who share the same wild love for the open ride. This year, I made a change: I’m not riding single-speed. I’ve swapped … Read more
