I am going to train today and each day for the next 19 weeks so I can have the fitness to qualify for Boston. I don't have that fitness currently, so my workout today will not discourage me. #bqchat #marathontraining

Vinny Mauri is the real deal. In the age of optimizing bros, he is the peak nonchalantmaxxer.
Nontraditional training approach, doesn’t care about the status quo, talks his shit, and currently 7th in Chicago right now pacing a 2:05.
Might have to keep an eye on this guy.

Stop trying to prove fitness, and start trying to do what is best to get you to the starting line fit, healthy, and ready to go.
The need to prove oneself comes from insecurity. It’s a lack of trust in the plan and the process.

We are one week out from Hungerford 2026, and the weather forecast is looking GREAT this week. Some rain mid week to tamp down the power lines ‘sand,’ and then sunny and 70° projected on race day! Bring it!
