Here we are in 2024. I can not believe this website is coming up to its 5 year anniversary! It has been a wonderful experience meeting a lot of you via email, AND developing a career of coaching.

2023 was very busy. We added 2 more grandchildren (for a total of 7…so far). I expanded from coaching in person in Buffalo, to offering virtual coaching to everyone. I decided to roll everything into an LLC.

Because of all of that…and more…content creation took kind of a backseat as I dug into the nitty gritty of running the business.

However, I still managed to get in enough to offer you the “Top 5 Most Popular” posts, podcast episodes and YouTube channel videos.

Today I will be sharing and linking to the blog posts.

1. Boston Run Show

Last year the Boston Run Show began, and as one of the ambassadors, I was thrilled to be a part of the story. They are back again this year, though unless you are currently in Boston it is probably too late for you to check it out (it is being held January 27/28, 2024 at the Hines Convention Center).

The speaker list, product list, services offered, etc. are expanded a BUNCH from last year. I anticipate that there will be a show next year, and if you sign up for my newsletter you can be one of the first to be offered free tickets for 2025. Just leave the comment “Newsletter”, and I will add your email to the list.

2. The Road to Improvement: How Consistency in Running Yields Results

If you have been running a long time, you know that to get better at running you need to run.

A lot of times we rely on the next big workout, running shoe or training plan to help us with our goals. But just the act of getting out the door and making it a habit will go a long way to getting you so much better…even if you do nothing else.

Garmin Connect Website-

The Garmin Connect Website that I am talking about here is personal to you. It is an extension of the information you can find on the app, with even more data and things to see.

The last 3 Most Popular posts are dealing with this site. It has fun things like animations of your routes, there is a spot where you can find races, it breaks down all your data into reports…it is really a good resource to take a look at how your data shakes out.

Garmin Connect- Activity Dashboard and Reports

There are dashboards that are automatic, and ones that you can create. Everything from step count to your run is on here.

Garmin Connect- Activity Dashboard and Reports Part 2

Since the Report view has so much to see, I divided it up into 2 parts.

The last Connect post in the series that wraps everything up.

And that wraps up The Wrinkled Runner Blog Top 5 for 2023!
