🎰 RUN ROULETTE CHALLENGE Eat Cake Run Club….. Run Roulette is exactly what it sounds like: you don’t choose the miles… the MILES choose you. Every day is a gamble. Some days are light. Some days are spicy. All days are about showing up. 🌀 HOW IT WORKS - Every morning, we will ask Siri or Alexa to give a random number between 1 and 26 - Whatever number is given = that day’s required miles Example: Number is 5 → run 5 miles Number is 18 → run 18 miles Number is 26 → buckle up 😅 - Miles can be completed however you need: One run or multiple runs Outdoor or treadmill Run, jog, walk, shuffle—we don’t care how fast, just that you do the miles 👀 PLAY ALONG & EARN POINTS Then head to the Run Roulette Chat Post Thread. You can earn points in TWO ways: 1️⃣ Guess the Miles (1 Point) - Guess what the next day’s miles will be - Guesses must be posted before the daily miles are announced - Correct guess = 1 point 2️⃣ Run the Miles (1 Point) - Complete the exact miles required for that day - Post your run (screenshot, photo, or app log) - Complete the miles = 1 point 💡 You can earn 2 points in a single day if you: - Guess correctly and - Run the miles 🏆 PRIZES At the end of the month: - Points will be totaled - The member with the most points wins Winner receives: - 💵 $100 CASH - 👕 Exclusive, unreleased Eat Cake Run Club apparel (free) If there’s a tie, we’ll handle it the Eat Cake way (details announced if needed). 🎂 THE GOOD STUFF! - This challenge is about fun, consistency, and doing hard things - You are always encouraged to: Listen to your body Scale when needed Skip a day if life or health requires it Run Roulette is here… LETS GOOO!

If we already hit this…my bad. Curious what you all do for cross training, and why/what benefits you like that it provides. I’m going through a lifeguard course for work, and the swim tonight was torturous. But as I sat there on the pool deck hoping my soul would return from its out of body journey, I realized I had one of the most intense full leg pumps I’ve ever experienced. I’m planning to incorporate some swimming in the training plan and see how/if it does anything.

Week 26 is proof that consistency doesn’t need applause—it needs backbone. LOTS OF IT. Big Run Weekend has never been about perfect splits, flawless weather, or waiting until we “feel ready.” It’s about choosing the work anyway. When the alarm hits too early. When your legs feel heavy. When life feels loud. This is where Eat Cake Run Club separates itself. This is where WE GO ALL IN, full send. Before we know it, summer will be here. The long days. The races. The trips. The moments where we want to feel strong, confident, and proud of the work we’ve done. And here’s the truth most people miss: The version of you that shows up this summer is being built right now. READ THAT AGAIN Every early morning. Every mile you didn’t feel like running. Every decision to move instead of sit. The work we’re stacking in February becomes the confidence we carry in June AND BEYOND . What feels small today becomes powerful later. Stay patient. But also Stay stubborn. And let’s talk about last weekend. To everyone who went BIG and knocked out 20+ mile runs — that’s not casual. That’s commitment. That’s grit. That’s Eat Cake Run Club at full volume. You didn’t just log miles… you built calluses on your mind. And just like that, we’re back on the 20 Mile Bomb Streak: Run of 1. One becomes two. Two becomes momentum. Momentum becomes unstoppable We’re not chasing hype. We’re building durability. The New Year excitement is long gone. Good. That means this is real now. This is the part where character shows up. Where nobody is clapping. Where the only thing pushing you forward is the promise you made to yourself. Big Run Weekend is our reset button. Our reminder. Our proving ground. Do something hard this weekend. Not because it’s convenient. Not because it’s trending. But because you’re the type of person who doesn’t back down when it gets uncomfortable. Summer is coming. Strength is earned now. Show up. Go big. Stay stubborn. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Oh yeah, happy Valentine’s Day :)
