EVERY STEP BRINGS HOPE — MY RUNNING JOURNEY WITH JOY ❤️
800 days since I started running every day. On day 799, I crossed the finish line of my third marathon.
Three marathons. Three personal bests.

My goal was sub-3:10. I came close, gave everything I had, and cried at the finish. There was joy, disappointment, gratitude—and hope for what comes next.
Through it all, my beloved wife, Joy, has been by my side. Thank you for every cheer, every meal made with love, and every moment you’ve believed in me. This journey is ours. ❤️
I have a dream: to become the first yogi runner with a million followers to run a sub-3-hour marathon. It’s a dream that keeps me curious about what patience and consistency can make possible.
I hope my journey encourages you to discover your own possibilities—to run, move, and care for your body at your own pace. You don’t need to chase my finish time to experience the happiness movement can bring.
For the rest of this year, I’ll recover, rebuild, and keep training steadily toward sub-3. My next attempt will be in May 2027. Then, if I get into Chicago, I’ll take that dream to the Chicago Marathon in October.
Above all, I want to keep running happy, healthy, and free from injury—with Joy beside me and gratitude for every step.
The dream is ahead. The happiness is already here. 🏃🏻♂️❤️
