#throwbackthursday to the last time I was able to run in Canada. I was in Toronto for my brothers wedding and even though we were busy I made it a point to squeeze in a run along Lake Ontario. It was only mid-october yet it was 30°F which was definitely freezing for a California boy like myself. I will return to the great white north this weekend to run my 10th full marathon at Rock N Roll Montreal. #tbt #rnrmtl #running #marathon #teamnuun #nuunlove #furtherfasterforever #instarunners #werunsocial #worlderunners #maurrunning #runcation #travel #toronto #canada (at Lake Ontario)

Eight months down in 2016 and while my overall mileage is short in comparison to this point last year, I’ve hit my 100 miles/month goal for the eighth straight month. This is one of the more memorable ~100 miles that I’ve run… ever… In addition to my recent 50k, I was able to spend some of those miles running through Rome, Paris, London, and Dublin including a half marathon in each of the latter two cities. Definitely a good birthday month. Next stop, #rnrmtl for my 10th all time full marathon, and 5th of this year. Happy running everyone! #august #recap #running #teamnuun #nuunlove #furtherfasterforever #instarunners #werunsocial #worlderunners #maurrunning #travel #runcation #rome (at Colloseum)

Running in Rome is like running amongst ancient giants. Structures like the Pantheon tower over you and you can’t help but feel a sense of awe in their size and historical importance. #amaurrunbuddy #takesoneurope #runcation #travel #running #teamnuun #furtherfasterforever #instarunners #werunsocial #worlderunners #maurrunning #italy #rome #pantheon #latergram (at Pantheon)

The #rnrdublin Family Fun 3k run/walk after the half marathon was a nice little victory lap we were able to share together and just leisurely enjoy the presence of friends from all over meeting in a random country again to run together. #runrocknroll #tourpass #worldrockers #heavymedals #blacksheeprun #teamnuun #furtherfasterforever #instarunners #werunsocial #worlderunners #travel #running #dublin #maurrunning (at Rock N Roll Half Marathon Dublin, Ireland)

The best way to see a city is by foot. Started our #rnrdublin Euro #runcation with a nice running tour of Paris’s sites.

Left So Cal around 9:30PM yesterday and made the 7 hour drive up north. Passed San Francisco, where I am slated to run in a few hours, and headed for Windsor to the start of #imvineman. Generally one should rest before a race but it was well worth it to be able to see some friends off and cheer them on during the first part of their amazing journey. Even though I couldn’t stick around to see them finish, I was so proud and inspired by them and everyone who toed the line this morning. I’ve been saying I’m going to do a triathlon, but I think this is just what I needed to spark that fire. Congrats to everyone who finished today. You are all amazing! #ironman #vineman #triathlon #inspiration #endurance #running #swim #cycling #teamnuun #furtherfasterforever #travel #sfmarathon #windsor #russianriver #maurrunning (at IRONMAN Vineman)

Immediately after the marathon last week, we jumped on a plane to Maui for a friend’s wedding.

Funny that I just got this in my e-mail after posting my previous pic. Heck yes I’m ready to rock 26.2! My next full marathon after @ocmarathon will be #rnrsea in June! 2nd year in a row. A great course and home to @nuunhydration. Who else is running RNR Seattle?

A little #waybackwednesday to my last 26.2 at #rnrdc. Such an awesome start line and course. This is the race where I finally felt comfortable with the #marathon distance. I’m looking forward to pacing the @ocmarathon this weekend. #running #runrocknroll #tourpass #heavymedals #washingtondc #ocmarathon #pacer #ambassador #travel #maurrunning

#medalmonday Viva Mexico edition. 2 of 8 medals earned this weekend.
