Updated Resume

Posted on February 21, 2021February 21, 2021 by John Beck

It’s been years, like over 10 years, since I’ve last updated my resume. Not only did I update it but I redesigned the whole thing. The design matches my website. Trying to unify it all. I just did it so I still have to work on all the content and wording but here’s a preview. See it HERE!

Love organizing my little #5k, this is the 4th year I’ve done it, had to postpone this one to #halloween due to the #rona but it turned out to be a great run! The cold morning and sloppy leaf covered trails on an already tough course made it extra challenging for my runners but luckily I have the best and toughest runners who come out to my event! We got a new female course record (won overall too!) and a couple more age group records. Thank you to everyone who came out, you guys totally crush!!! #ugf5k #uptowngentlefriends #dashanddeciduous #running #trailrunning

14 races. 405 race miles. 3 PRs. 5 AG awards.

I started the year off very strong then mid April I developed a hip injury that stuck with me for the rest of the year. The injury slowed me down but I finished with another yearly mileage PR by almost 100 miles. The highlights this year include the first time winning an age group award at a major event (Pittsburgh 5k) and of course 3 Days at the Fair multi-day race is once again the most memorable event of the year for me. #running #trailrunning #ultrarunning #uptowngentlefriends #3datf #chicagomarathon #pittsburghmarathon via Instagram https://ift.tt/37awzlG

#chicagomarathon 4:10 finish. Far from my ideal finish time, much slower than my spring marathon and even more slower than the marathon this time last year. Regardless, I had a lot of fun and it was an incredible experience. So awesome! via Instagram https://ift.tt/2McgUe3

#lederhosenhalfmarathon Fun after party (3 free beers AND food). Nice challenging course. Cool swag. Low price. Love the energy on Main St in Newark. Hip town! Happy with my 1:47 finish, 8:10 pace. 27th overall, 5th in my AG. Ideally I would have preferred sub-1:40 but after a hot and humid summer wore me down this was a welcome confidence booster. 2 weeks till Chicago! I’m out! via Instagram https://ift.tt/2o8py3H
