I would throw another option in the mix of Northern Arizona University. The species you hunt might not be as varied - but while I was in Flag during my trail runs and hikes I saw some absolute monster Elk and Mule Deer. It was prior to me getting into hunting but I knew they were huge.
Also an...
I'm carrying a p365xl with a 15rd and optic when I'm using my setup. I have the rig super tight when I put it on. Very tight in my chest and shoulders. I have noticed slight discomfort from the weight but the setup doesn't slip down.
My biggest issue is when it's super warm or I'm running it...
I second the HPG chest rig. The Runners Kit bag is my go to for when I am carrying my 9mm whether I am running or hunting. During hunts with the kit bag stuffed to the gills it holds everything from binos to pistol to phone to chapstick.
When I am doing long trail runs in predator country it...
I also got a "sportneer" massage gun. Use it once or twice a week and it was very quiet in comparison to my friends Theragun.
It is starting to get loose in the head attachment to the gun - so with medium use over 2ish years it seems it doesn't hold up as well as other options - but it is...
I find one of my weakest points has always been finding a good lunch around my work schedule.
Recently I have been buying a Costco rotisserie chicken and one of their pre-packaged salads. Once you shred the chicken and divvy up the salad that is 4 pretty healthy and decent size lunches for most...

We had our kid "older" (in my 30's) and it has highlighted to me how I want to be in good shape for my kid. For all the hiking with him in a backpack and runs in the running...
The 27th I think at Filson downtown - I am 50/50 on whether or not I am going - have a 1 year old and taking nights to myself are Very Rare - not sure I can sneak off to the event - but hoping to.
I have replied to a couple other FNG posts for people in WA.
But I am an FNG in Issaquah WA.
Mid 30's have been on a few big game hunts but came up empty. Used to shoot Yote's and rabbits in college - but the past few years are my first foray into big game real hunting.
Into other generic...
My goal for this year is run 1k miles and mountain bike 250 miles.
We have it planned to run Rim to Rim to Rim this year- but I already have a feeling 2 of the 4 in our hunting group will cancel and we will end up doing it next year.
