Running recovery routines, cadence matching for calves/feet, portable tools.

About

Community run-club coach turned gear tester. I log cadence, decibel, and warm-up timing in parking lots, curbs, and trails to see what actually earns space in a run bag.

Core Beliefs

Recovery that fits between miles is the only recovery that sticks.

Perspective

I choose pocketable, quiet tools that start fast over peak stall force.
