Listen "25 - Mike McMonagle"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to a new episode of Take Off Your Shoes, with my guest Mike McMonagle, aka shitinthewoods!"I was looking forward to having something else be unequivocally my highest priority."The contagious passion and love he has for the sport and his craft is dwarfed only by his love for his son Monte. This was a very special conversation, a true catch-up with some background questions thrown in for good measure to get a fuller “picture” (pun intended) of Mike.I had a blast getting to know him during UTMB and getting to witness him at work first hand, and this conversation pulls the curtain back even further on his reflections around being a photographer, a father, a runner, and a very active member of the community.A few takeaways I had from this wonderful convo were that 1) being a parent will be an indescribable experience which I’m really looking forward to yet still have no idea about, and 2) allocating time to the things you care about and value is one of the most important things we can do in life.Thank you so much for this catch-up, Mike, and I cannot wait to chase runners again together in Chamonix.Make sure to follow shitinthewoodsLeave a comment and send me your thoughts on InstagramI truly appreciate you taking the time to listen and read this. Take care and until next time!
