Closing Up Shop on PhatJosh.com
When I launched PhatJosh.com back in early 2010 I really did it as a way to stay accountable for my health. I mainly used it as a blog to track my weight loss, workouts and everything else that came with trying to lose 100+ lbs. It naturally evolved into a running blog as I evolved as well.

Closing Up Shop on PhatJosh.com
When I launched PhatJosh.com back in early 2010 I really did it as a way to stay accountable for my health. I mainly used it as a blog to track my weight loss, workouts and everything else that came with trying to lose 100+ lbs. It naturally evolved into a running blog as I evolved as well.
Over the past decade I’ve blogged my race reviews, about my health problems and everything in between. It’s been a great place for me to share my story with others. And, while I am closing shop on this blog, I am really just moving things over to a Blogger site, Josherwalla.com, I’ve had for a couple years. I’ve kept it lowkey and in waiting because I knew this site would eventually end.
The biggest reason why I am making the movie is money, I’ve paid about $100 a year to maintain this page on a WordPress template. The new site is a free website on Blogger. So, really it’s saving me … well about $100 a year. I love using a WordPress template and everything that comes with that — but — I also like saving my money as well.
I am still going to post my race reviews on Josherwalla. I will still write about my fitness. I will still talk about all of my struggles and triumphs. But, I’ll also be writing about more than just fitness and running stuff. I’ll include my muses, thoughts, adventures and whatnot. That will include what’s going on with Radio Ronin, life and everything else in between.
So I guess you could say that I am transitioning from a running to more so a personal blog. Something I’ve tried to keep seperate, but really — why? Plus, there’s so much more to my life than just running and I want to be able to share that.
This site will still be up until around March-ish, but I have already made the full-time switch to Josherwalla.com. If you would like to follow me there I’d love your company. And, remember you can always follow me on social media @josherwalla on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Thanks for the support over the past six years and see you on Josherwalla.
Peace.

Social Media clean-up ...
Social Media clean-up …
So if you follow me on social media, especially Instagram, you probably know that I have a lot of accounts. A lot. Some of personal accounts, most are accounts I manage for other people or businesses.
In the past, I kind of treated my accounts as yearbook albums instead of an account. While also having a fitness account with a couple special interest accounts for my running. That included one…

Running 2019: July to December
As you may of remembered I pretty much finalized my first half schedule for 2019. It was pretty easy to do, because I’m going after a few goals — including location races and time goals. But, as it comes to looking ahead to the second half of next year, um, I don’t know?

Running 2019: July to December
As you may of remembered I pretty much finalized my first half schedule for 2019. It was pretty easy to do, because I’m going after a few goals — including location races and time goals. But, as it comes to looking ahead to the second half of next year, um, I don’t know?
Seriously.
This is the hardest part of my 2019 running year to plan for — because — I am not 100% what I want to accomplish? I mean, I do, but I don’t. My long term number one goal will always be a 100 mile race until I accomplish it. It’s just the when that I need to figure out.
The only thing I know that I got going for me for next year is two things — one, I don’t want to run anything longer than a 10K between November and December, and two, I want to tackle a few faster half marathons.
With that in mind I came up with the following race calendar for 2019. The only non-faster or canyon half marathons are Pocatello and Antelope Island. But, I want to go hard at DesNews, Nebo, Revel BC and The Haunted Half in SLC. That is why I am surrounding them with a few 5Ks and training runs.
Now, this could change depending on when I want to go hard for the marathons and ultras. But, I have goals for the half marathon distance that I want to hit and I know that my body can’t focus on both. My fastest half marathons came in 2013 when I was only focusing on and running half marathons.
I feel like if I continue to grow on this base, get faster, get proper training and just work hard that this will build me up for a year of marathons and ultras in 2020. Specifically an attempt to tackle my elusive 100 mile race. That feels like a solid plan and goal.
I am noticing a pattern in my running where I am good with ultras for a couple years before going back down to half marathons and shorter distances. I feel like this is a good pattern to follow, especially as I age and face my 40s within the next few years. I really want to hit many of my ultra goals before I hit 40 — so 2020 and half of 2021 will give me a good run in that cycle.
Anyways, that’s a looooong post for another day.
But, let’s get to my proposed race schedule for the last half of 2019. Like I’ve mentioned numerous times already, this is subject to change. And, I’ll post all of the group runs for the Trails & Pavement group a bit later in the month.
Anywho, here’s the schedule …

September 2, 2019
October 5, 2019
November 2, 2019
November 30, 2019
December 21, 2019
I feel like that’s a pretty good schedule, don’t you? That gives me a bit of time to rest in November before going into marathon training for 2020. I am thinking about kicking that off with the Ogden Marathon?
We’ll see, that sounds like a great place to start, but stay tuned. I will probably do a mock draft of my 2020 race schedule in the next few weeks — just to plant the seed of the direction I want to take in the next couple of years.
Anyways, what races are you planning on doing in 2019? Are you registered for any races in 2019 already?
