Same Saturday, four hours later. Back at it. Forty-five minutes, and this time Strava caught a sliver of movement — 0.21 miles. Barely a lap around the block, if that. Two sessions in one day. The afternoon was indoors. The night one had just enough GPS drift or a short walk mixed in to register distance. Either way, RAI wasn’t…

Saturday afternoon, forty-four minutes indoors. January in Pensacola — cool enough to want to stay inside, warm enough to feel guilty about it. Duncan Laurence’s “Arcade” was playing. That song hits different during a workout. Loving you is a losing game. Sometimes the soundtrack says what the body won’t. Forty-four minutes, no distance. Just RAI and a song that understood…

The night before Thanksgiving. Almost midnight. Seventy-nine minutes of indoor work while the rest of Pensacola was probably asleep or prepping turkey. There’s something about a late-night workout on a holiday eve. You’re not doing it for anyone. You’re not posting about gains. You’re just a person who decided that 11:45 PM on a Wednesday was a fine time to…

Ninety-six minutes on a Sunday afternoon. An hour and a half of indoor work with nowhere to be and nothing to prove. That’s a long session for someone building back. Whatever RAI was doing in there — weights, stretching, pacing the garage, some combination of all of it — they stayed with it. Ninety-six minutes is commitment even when nobody’s…

Friday morning, thirty-two minutes. No distance logged. Indoor work — the kind where you’re just trying to build a habit before you can build anything else. Mid-November 2021. RAI was showing up. Not far, not fast, not impressive. But showing up. Some days the whole workout is proving you’ll do it again. 📊 Workout Stats ⏱️ Duration: 32 minutes 📍…
