If I had just one penny from all the people who judge me and judge so many others who fit this exact bill…. You love to judge others but never yourself. And you talk about God and your love for God. But tell others how fucked up they are- like you are God! So many of you on Instagram love to preach about how fucked up someone else is. It’s amazing how you can so comfortably hold other people to a standard far above the one you hold for yourself. Sad that Instagram has given you all a platform. You use the platform to spread nothing more than evil. Most of you look through social media so you can be nasty and hateful. But the next thing from your mouth will be something about God. You pass judgment on someone you don’t even know—you don’t know their story, their pain, and the battles they’re fighting every day. But you are in church every Sunday! Hilarious!!!

Time. Time is running out! I know some of you think you are young and have so much time. I am here to tell you that in the blink of an eye, all that time is gone and all you will be left with is regret. That said, we do live in a different generation and I am sure that most of you probably don’t even give a fuck. But, for those who do, you better stop thinking and start fucking doing! Stay hard!

Mad respect @davidjypark ! Someone sent me this so just discovering you now. Your journey from 0 to Ironman to Moab 240 is very impressive to say the least! It shows that with hard work, dedication, the right mindset and attitude - anything is possible! We will get that workout in one day! But be forewarned- what people think I do and what I really do are two entirely different things! You might want to add in a couple more workouts within the day. All that said, most people’s attitude sucks and they look at all of this work as impossible and a waste of time. They look at it as a waste of time because it sucks! Continue crushing shit! Mad respect! Stay hard!

I am only here for those who truly understand the grind. Everyone else can politely shut the fuck up! Stay hard!

For all those who only know me for slogans like “who’s gonna carry the boats and the logs” and “you don’t know me, son”, etc., there is a lot more to the story than that! Most of you know the sayings but the majority of you don’t know where they even came from or the true story on what it really took. I am very honored and humbled by the many lives that have been changed by this book. I take no credit for those lives that have been changed, I was just the motherfucking tool doing God’s work. And let me tell you, there were so many fucking days…soooooo many fucking days I did not want to do that work but it had to be done. Stay hard!

Some people don’t read into the message they just get it and get to work! Stay hard!

Happy Monday, motherfuckers! Stay hard!

Never make ‘em happy! Find a way! Make ‘em continue to hate you. Make ‘em continue to question their hatred and spark their insecurities! As long as you have a breath of air, continue the fight! Stay hard!

Pictures from Moab 240. Thanks @shapirothehero for the great pictures. Epic race!

Most people look at my feet after a race and cringe. Blisters, missing and black toenails, skin peeling off, trench foot in this picture- pure destruction. But that’s the point. Those feet tell the story of suffering. Every mile, every hill, every moment I wanted to quit but didn’t — it’s all written right there. Pain leaves a mark, and those marks remind me who the hell I am. Comfort doesn’t teach you anything. Suffering does. My feet aren’t ugly — they’re proof of a war I survived. The most recent being Moab 240 this past weekend. I look at my feet and am proud of the work they endured and the fact that I am still lining up at the start line of these races twenty years after I started when so many of my generation have long since retired. Stay hard!

This weekend, I completed Moab 240. There are always major takeaways, questions, lessons, etc, when you put yourself in that kind of arena. All of that said, I have to thank @destinationtrailraces for putting on another amazing event. I would like to also thank Mother Nature for adding another fuck you to the race with the weather conditions. Lastly, I cannot thank my crew enough for the hard work and dedication. I really need to thank @drcordial . The video doesn’t really explain just how bad off I truly was. His expertise and knowledge kept me in the fight. I have people like that on my crew to help me get to the finish line. Casey understands that getting me there is his top priority so his ability to problem solve and find the origin cause of the problem is paramount. Congratulations to all of the other runners who not only finished Moab but also those who had the courage to try! Stay hard!

If you are sitting around dreaming, stop! Whatever you want in life is right behind the work you are willing to put into yourself! Stay hard!
