Coffee I’m Drinking
Wanderer from Cam’s Kettle Coffee, based here in DC. Cam sources nearly all of his coffee from a farm in Colombia, and a membership helps provide sustainable revenue for both the farmer and the distributor. Plus, the coffee is delicious and always fresh. Learn more here. My referral code here.
Quote I’m Pondering
“Pessimism is an indulgence, orthodoxy the enemy of invention, despair an insult to the imagination.”
Wade Davis
Song I’m Listening To On Repeat
“Canto Andino” by Hermanos Gutierrez. I was in their top .05% of listeners on Spotify last year, which is to say: I love these guys.
New Thing I’m Trying
Nasal breathing while running. There is some evidence that points to benefits of nasal breathing during aerobic exercise. It’s really uncomfortable at first, but can ultimately improve running economy by reducing ventilation (and thereby reducing energy needs) and enhancing overall oxygen delivery to working muscles. Currently marathon training, so I’ll take what I can get.
