Training with my kids has become one of the most unexpected joys of Dad life.

Poppy just completed her first 5km and is really showing some great motivation and discipline in her running journey.

And my son Noah doesn’t make a peep when I run with him in the pram… he just loves to see his surroundings and let his curious brain run wild.

Super excited to involve them both in future thru-hikes and running events.

Even my wife has shown some interest in our local parkrun and keen on her first city to surf next year… I guess we are becoming a running family 🏃‍♂️

Completed my first ever running event today with the Chevron City to Surf for genU 🏃

Awesome being surrounded by 1000s of fellow runners, all doing it for a good cause 🙌

I was fortunate enough to get a 10km PB as well, which was entirely unexpected as I have not run in a month… I guess all that residual training load in the buildup to June still is paying off!

And of course… seeing my family and friends there at the end was special.

It’s crazy the impact exercise can have on the mind. This year has been very impactful for our little family and it’s easy to skip those workouts and just lounge on the couch eating chocolate all night, but all day today I’ve just felt so great and blessed to be alive… gotta love that runners high.

And in all things, glory to God, who has blessed me with two legs and heartbeat 🙌

Time for some Rottnest Island exploration and fishing 🎣 will be posting a lot of content about it in the coming days and take you with me for the journey… hoping for a big fish 🐟
