It’s not unusual to get asked about my training, particularly with the amount I run. People from the local area occasionally stop me to ask, “Do you ever stop running?” while friends who see some of my workouts tend to respond with, “That’s not normal.”

Whilst I take both as compliments, the reality is less unusual than it may appear on the face of it. As with most things in life, dig deeply enough and what seems out of the ordinary usually has a clear explanation.

Since discovering Cryotherapy and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy nearly a year ago now, they’ve become a firm staple of my recovery routine. Whilst I’d tried Red Light Therapy a couple of times before, I hadn’t prioritised making it a regular commitment.

Recently though, I decided that rather than having RLT down the list as a ‘nice to have’, I wanted to start treating it with the same consistency as my other recovery practices.

I recently added the Consistency in Motion tracker to the site after becoming aware a few months ago of an upcoming milestone of sorts, crossing the cumulative distance of 24,901 miles tracked on Strava since I started using it in November 2020.

Once again, a recent trip to Waterstones did the trick of helping me break out of the algorithmic recommendations of Audible and Amazon to pick up something outside my usual reading. Whilst I came away with a handful of books, The Anatomy of Violence by Adrian Raine was the first I decided to dive into.

As a long-time Jim Collins fan, I'm slightly surprised it took me this long to get around to reading Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0. As I worked through it, it became easy to see why Reed Hastings suggested it should be required reading for aspiring CEOs.

I was unfamiliar with the Davis family until listening to an episode of We Study Billionaires covering both their remarkable investing record both from a growth and longevity perspective and The Davis Dynasty. Whilst the episode was informative, at an hour it could only scratch the surface of an investment record that spanned multiple generations, so I thought I’d pick up the book to dive into it further.
