Found Me at Mile 1
Building the Runner I Never Was
On April 12, 2025 I decided something needed to change physically, mentally, and spiritually. I started with a simple goal: walk one mile. I could barely finish it. But I kept showing up every day at Lodi Lake Nature Trail. Walking turned into two miles. Then I started running small stretches after mile one. On May 10, 2025 at my first running event, the Pleasanton Bubble Run, I ran a full mile from the start without planning to. That moment changed everything. Now I document the training, the events, and the lessons as I build the runner I never was.
