Listen "Getting Competitive"
Episode Synopsis
This week, I ramped up the mileage -- probably a little too much -- for a good reason.
My team, The Flying Chanclas, is virtually running across all 879 miles across Texas. I formed the team as sort of a lark -- something to do during the dog days and beyond. We started on July 1 and of this recording, we are in a dead heat for 4th-5th place out of 183 teams in the 5-person relay.
I had no idea we would be competitive but seeing that we shot up sort of quickly has emboldened my teammates and me. We will see. It's a long way to WallyWorld, Clark.
Nonetheless, I am stoked to have some motivation to get out of my rut.
