New half-marathon PR of 1:29:55 (and first place in a pretty small field) in the Better World Running Father’s Day event in Santa Monica

Shout-out to the woman who raced this in a powder blue track suit, absolutely iconic.

Official photos dropped, and ... I've looked a lot worse mid-race, tbh

- Starting line in downtown Ojai at 6:00am
- Somewhere about mile 6, I think? Early enough I could mug for the camera
- Crossing the finish line, repping my running club ( Frontrunners) and @ASNAmNat

Dr. Nat Zappia, history professor and director of the CSUN Institute for Sustainability has passed away. My heart is so broken. He was a mentor to me. Always trying to get me more oppritunties to make some money and teach ecology. His passion for nature and indigenous folks rights was awe inspiring. If you are in Los Angeles, visit the G.A.R.D.E.N. on the north end of campus, an almost acre large space of fruits and vegetables and native plants. Honor that space for him.

The original installation in 2020: cnet.com/google-amp/news/star-

And tonight’s refreshed installation… maybe for the finale?

Today I contributed to the range expansion of Xylococcus bicolor, mission manzanita, by ~50 miles in the Los Angeles area. Image shoes me holding the leaves and the sprouting bud.

Pushing up the Sunday mileage β€” this was 13 at pace, with 2 to warmup and 3 cooling down

Warm, sunny weather by recent standards, and I felt pretty good!
