The Writer

hi, I’m Jae.

Jae with his son in the park after a run.

With Roman in the park, post-run.

I run when I can. Some days I make the 5am alarm, some days I don’t.

I have a one-year-old named Roman, a wife who mostly puts up with all of this, and a small company I run during the 9-5. The running is a hobby. The family is the thing.

This site is where I write about it — race reports, training notes, the gear I actually use. No sponsored posts. If something’s here, I bought it and ran in it.

The thesis, if there is one: just because you’re a father doesn’t mean you should give up on hard things. That’s about it.
