A little bit ABOUT ME

MEET THE REAL WILL ELNICK

Hi and welcome to my website! Join in helping me make a community of dads and runners!

Bio

Hello! I’m the voice behind Dad Jogger, hailing from Long Island, NY, where I’m enjoying life as a father, runner, DIY enthusiast, and crafting aficionado. My journey into running traces back to my childhood, inspired by my dad’s passion for the sport. His clever tricks in races taught me to surpass my perceived limits, giving me a lifelong runner’s high.

As a father of three awesome boys, I navigate the wonderful chaos of diverse personalities, each day bringing its own mix of joy and challenge. Dad Jogger is my platform to build a community, share my running adventures, and stay motivated. It’s a dream evolved from the days of Myspace and Angelfire, now a reality where I connect with fellow enthusiasts.

While I’m not a professional, my running journey is extensive, spanning from competitive runs in my youth through marathons and even ultramarathons, with my longest run being an exhilarating 52 miles! My blog isn’t just about running; it’s a kaleidoscope of my interests – fitness, diet, gear, DIY, crafting, and the occasional eclectic read.

My mantra? “Stay positive and love your life,” a lesson I learned from my favorite band, 311. It’s a philosophy that fuels my every stride, DIY project, and blog post. Welcome to Dad Jogger, where each step is a story, and every story is a step towards positivity and embracing life’s multifaceted journey.
