Can I Train for 100 Miles Without Missing My Life?

from Life Around the Miles Hosted by thatdudejason

I’m chasing some pretty big running goals—50Ks, 100Ks, and eventually 100 miles. But the farther I want to run, the bigger the question becomes: how do I chase those goals without missing the life happening around me? In the first episode of Life Around the Miles, I talk about being a husband and dad while training for longer distances, what my first ultra taught me, and trying to find the balance between ambition, family, and the time these goals require. I don’t have all the answers. I’m figuring it out as I go. Because running is just the vehicle. Family, ambition, sacrifice, failure, getting older, and trying to balance it all—that’s the life that happens around the miles.
