Old Man Riot

I’m Dax, and I used to write a lot about running. Mostly trails and ultras, but I kind of ran out of running content, and I’m still running, but just not as much or as long anymore.

I’m still writing, too, but the more I do, the more anxious and insecure I get about it. I figure a good cure for this is to put it out there again, which doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it does to me.

So, I decided to start this newsletter and call it Old Man Riot because I was listening to Sonic Youth’s Teenage Riot when I wrote it, and I thought it was funny because I still feel like I have that teenage rage, but I’m getting older. So that’s the name and I reserve the right to change the title when my wife comes home and tells me it’s stupid.

If you want to read about things I love — running, climbing, being a dad, and making a fool of myself, but rarely in that order, please subscribe to the newsletter by hitting the button below.

Thanks, and I’m glad you’re along for the ride. I’ll try to keep it interesting.
