Beyond the Work
The Parts That Don't Fit on a Résumé.
Training in public, the places that shaped me, and what I'm reading. Kept honest, and kept current.
Training
Road to the Fitness Test.
Test day is December 12. I restarted the plan on September 19. I said I would get back on the plan, so the numbers live here where anyone can check. No routes, no locations, just the work.

Every trip taught me something about how people live, work and build. Next: living abroad with my family in 2027.
