Jeffrey Wright🏃🏻‍♂️

👋 Hey, I'm @JeffWri! I want to help you run farther than you ever thought possible and tell you great stories while you do! Because if you run, you know that everything in life somehow connects back to running. I've spent over 1,000 hours running in my life so far, and I'm just getting started. If you want to get some practical running insights AND crazy stories, smash the follow button! Fair warning should you follow me: I will try to talk you into a trail ultramarathon almost daily. (But I'll also give you the tools to get there.) 2023 >159 runs >951.2 miles >2 Half Marathons >2 Ultramarathons A few non-running things about me: - I've been married for 7 years. - I've got two kids. - My wife has a cat that I do not claim as my own. - I work as a pastor at a local church. - I'm writing a book on asking great questions that will be released in 2024. - I love tacos more than the average person. My mentality during an ultramarathon: > Run One Mile At A Time > Comfort Is A Lie > Cultivate the Mind, But Make Savage the Body "One run can change your day. Many runs can change your life." See you on the trails!

On pause. This past season of writing online has been incredible. I've really enjoyed meeting people and sharing ideas. Give me a few months. Gotta work on some things. I'll be back.

@JonathanMaloney It looks so good!!!!

Congratulations to @JeffWri on your release, and thanks for letting me design your cover!

@Wix47 Good man! Taking it really easy. I’ve got some other side projects and a baby on the way, so running is taking a back seat in this season. All good things!

@JeffWri Appreciate it sir. How’s your recovery post your race doing ?

216 miles for the Month of April. A awesome month of Running. And capped it off with a 3rd place finish in my 50k. Looking to build upon this. Running is the one constant in my life that brings me pure Joy and Happiness. Grateful for every RUN.

"What distinguishes those of us at the starting line from those of us on the couch is that we learn through running to take what the days gives us, what our body will allow us, and what our will can tolerate." - John Bingham

You're allowed to be a runner and a nerd. May The Fourth Be With You.

@miken_running I like dried mangos. Tasty and easy to eat and run. Also candy 😂

Hi ultra runners I have my final long run on Saturday leading into my 100 mile race at the end of the month Any suggestion on new foods to try? I wanted to try something new now before the race. What’s worked for you? #Runchat

@8ntmuch Something to be said for multitasking… 😂

@JeffWri Heavy rains forecasted all weekend here.. looks like a run, cold plunge and shower all at once! 🤣

Friendly reminder: This weekend is a great weekend to go for a run.

@LionsMan71 Thanks friend!!

@JeffWri Massive congratulations brother!

If you had told me 2 years ago that in the next two years, I would: - Run 2 half marathons - Run 3 ultramarathons - Publish my first book I would’ve laughed in your face. Two cheat codes to life: - 5am - Supportive spouse Book published today!! a.co/d/etdgQn7

@steven_montoya Crushed it!!!

Our team photographer caught this special moment when I told Grace she had broken the freshman record. “You are the fastest freshman ever in Los Alamos”

@ARunnersResolve Nothing like when the weather cooperates with you. Also, nothing like when the weather DOESN'T cooperate with you. 😅

After Aiden's training 1K I got in my own 4 mile run. Good weather, good music, and good miles. #Running #Fitness #Training #ShokzSquad

@aidstationfireb That is a crazy amount of miles. But it's the gain that's just straight wild.

Took some tactical screenshots to get a sense of what Jim’s peak weeks were in his build to UTMB last year: 105mi, 25hrs, 38k ft gain 125mi, 26hrs, 46k ft gain 128mi, 28hrs, 52k ft gain 138mi, 29hrs, 50k ft gain 107mi, 23hrs, 43k ft gain 😬😱🫡

@danrunsmn That's awesome!! Congrats on a great run!

I competed in my first backyard ultra yesterday. Got to 12 “yards” of 4.267 miles (50 miles) before by legs just couldn’t stand it anymore. Was fun time!! #running #Runner #trailrunner #trailrunning #ultrarunning

@RunningOnX Eventually, you stop feeling like yourself all together. Keep at it. It's worth it!

@8ntmuch 10/10 would run through this creek.

#ThirstyThursday ‼️ That mountain spring water just hits different!!

@miles_for_mike @julesdaigle67 Your crew is crushing it!

@scottcarlinpt Accurate. And yet, we'd often prefer to gather more information because that's comfortable.

Uncomfortable truth: You don’t need more information to become a better runner. You need more action.

@UltraRunner26 Killing the game! Congrats!

🤷I guess the trend now is to show your annual numbers. Thanks all you badasses! 4m is way more than I expected.

@oskarolarsbo This is ✨aggressive✨

I’m on my sixth cup of coffee. (It’s 10:47 am in Sweden) How many are you at?
