Currently have a job that I like right now and don’t want to leave. But think it be beneficial to have some recruiters in my network in case I am looking down the road. When recruiters reach directly out to me how should I handle? Ignore for now, respond saying I am not interested or is it ok to schedule a call and let them know where my interests lies?

Always be interviewing. Even if you are not actively looking now, the day may come when you are and those connections will be useful. Be honest that you are not actively looking to leave your current role, but you're happy to make a new acquaintance and discuss what they may be looking for in case you know someone you could refer, even if it's not you.

I try and speak to as many of them as possible - and I'm not particularly looking to move either. Now I have a few that reach out with stuff that they know I might be interested in. Be transactional - if you're quality they want you on their books as much as you want to receive options.

Fellow runners - I’ve been running 3-4x per week at about a 20-25 mile/week for the past year or so.

My questions: (1) does it make sense to take a week off and let myself rest or do other workouts (i.e. cycling) and (2) I’ve been running with the same shoes since August last year - make sense to get new ones?
