One week ago today our lives changed forever. God

One week ago today our lives changed forever. God blessed us with our Lyra Jude. It is just surreal to see her and hold her. She is so precious and so beautiful. I love my daughter. Family is everything. #girldad

This fridge door says it all. Life is so precious

This fridge door says it all. Life is so precious and it comes at you so fucking fast. Change is so hard, but it is what drives us and keeps us moving forward. Love is all that we need to embrace and harness this constant pressure and be able to use it to turn coal into beautiful diamonds. Family is fucking everything.

Life has been moving at a hundred miles per hour lately. Yesterday it slowed down for a moment and I was blessed with an incredible day. My first race in around four years and I got to spend the day with my amazing family. 🏃🏻‍♂️🤰🏻👦🏻💓💓💓💓 #blessed #family #running #trailrunner #familyfirst #ravenrocks

You are my favorite person. My everything partner. One year together. Every day I think it is impossible to love you more because I love you so damn much and every day you prove me wrong. #HappyAnniversary 🧝‍♂️💘🧝‍♀️

I’ve been running for a long time and have ran many races. However, yesterday was the most special because of two very special people I have in my life.

This pandemic fucking sucks. I have not been running a lot over the past year which is my favorite thing to do. March came around again and I couldn’t go on my yearly trip to Virginia with my parents to run the MCM 17.75k. I signed up for the virtual one and have probably not run more than a couple of miles here and there for months. I wanted to do this so badly for my dad who loves these races because he was a Marine, and I wanted to do this for me and even though 11 miles used to be an easy run for me, I was not confident that in my current shape I could do it.

I got all the help I needed from @jessica._.hamlet and her little guy as they went out the night before on the course I chose to run and posted signs for me and met me at the finish line holding more signs and cheering me on and running the last bit with me! My heart is so full right now.

Every mile begins with a first step. At the end of

Every mile begins with a first step. At the end of the year you always look back on the previous year to reflect. I could sit here and say that I am disappointed with my running last year. The last month I ran consistently was June and it’s hard to believe that’s six fucking months ago. Since then, it has been a shitshow of a ride on the struggle bus. Spoiler alert, I am scared of COVID and I don’t give a fuck if you are outside, be responsible to your fellow man and wear a fucking mask. Enough said about that. I’ve used that as an excuse though to not do something that I love to do. I’ve told myself over and over again, “Next time Chris” “Tomorrow Chris”. In the end, the worst person to lie to is yourself. I’m done fucking lying to myself. I want this. I need this. This is what I love to do. I am ready. #running #runner #runners #run #trailrunner #trailrunning #trailrunners #trailrun #wearafuckingmask

Loving my new playground. Another night run on the Harlem Valley Rail Trail that was met by some crisp fall feeling air 🙌🏻🍁🌌. Working on my consistency again and very happy to have a new place to run. #trailrunner #trailrunning #trailrunners #trailrun #runner #run #running #runners #nightrun #runnershigh #railtrail

🎶And if you cried out for more, If you reached out for me, I would run into the storm, Just to keep you here with me🎶

Spent some time in the woods with this special lady this weekend and I haven’t stopped smiling since 💓

Finally got back on some single track this past weekend! First time in a new park and enjoyed it thoroughly! #trailrunning #trailrunner #trailrun #trailrunners #trailporn #run #runner #running #runners #runnershigh

Now, more than ever, we need to all work together.

Now, more than ever, we need to all work together. We need to love everyone, regardless of color, race, creed, or sexuality. “Race Season” officially begun today, as I took to the trails and showed my Pride! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🏳️‍🌈💥💥💥. If you scroll all the way through, the last pic is from a few years back at the actual #frnypriderun in Central Park. Although, equally as hot as that day, there was no spectators, ice pops, or Taylor Swift playing today, but the message is the same. Be proud of who you are and love everyone as you want to be loved. #priderun #frny #pride2020 #trailrunner #trailrunning #trailrunners #trailrun #running #runner #runners #run #runnershigh #love

This is a late post from Sunday. I have been hitting this comeback hard as of late and it continued this past weekend. Perfect day for a run and I put in my first 10+ miler in a while. The entire run felt great and I had such a great day at one of my favorite spots! #trailrunning #trailrunner #trailrun #trailrunners #running #runner #run #runners #runnershigh #trailporn #newyork #hudsonvalley

Went for my longest run today since this all started. I’m still here everyone (realizing my last actual post was 1/10🤦🏻‍♂️). Not much to report other than getting back into a running routine and touching dirt again feels good. #trailrunner

If you’ve been following my story I have been dropping in some pics from my trail run at Mohonk this past weekend. I took a lot of pics that day. It was cold, wet, and foggy and the day I spent playing in the woods was some of the most fun I’ve had in a while! #traillove #trailrunning #trailrunner #trailrunners #trailrun #trailporn #run #runner #running #runners #runnershigh #runsteepgethigh #runaway #ultratraining #newyork #beastcoast #hudsonvalley #mohonk #minnewaska #shawangunks

Been meaning to post these for a couple of days. I truly love trail running at night. The feeling of solitude can be refreshing at times and the trails are just as beautiful in the dark as they are during the day. #trailrunner #trailrunning #trailrunners #trailrun #trailporn #runner #running #runners #run #runnershigh #nightrun #runsteepgethigh #critterpatrol

Had a great morning at Ravens Rock! I run at the Ward often and I love running here and this race always is a fun time with s’mores and custom bibs and a great race community! #trailrunning #trailrunner #trailrun #trailrunners #running #runner #run #runners #trailrace #ravensrock #runnershigh #runsteepgethigh #harrytasker

🎶I hold my life out in front of me, Dreams of who I want to be, I’m seeing every empty page, But I find that everything I am is everything I should be, I don’t need to run away🎶 Beautiful day to crush out a long run at 🐻. Nothing says self reflection better than hours alone in the woods on a perfect fall day. Continuing to ramp up this comeback! #trailrunning #trailrunner #trailrun #trailrunners #running #runner #run #runners #trailporn #runnershigh #runsteepgethigh #bearmountain #newyork #hudsonvalley #ultratraining #beastcoast

Another Trapp Mountain in the books and a course PR of six minutes! Beautiful day, lots of mud to play in, great trails, and good beer.

Today I took a look back at 35 and was able to reflect upon a year that had its successes and its failures, and the moments that one would consider both. I went through a lot of change this year in many aspects of my life and faced some tough challenges. I’d be totally lying if I sat here today and said I was at a great place in my life or that I have all my shit together. But what I can say is that I am determined and I am focused and I know what I have to do to get there. Today turns the page to chapter 36. Looking forward to filling these pages with a great story. #happybirthdaytome
