Ep 4 - The Discipline to Slow Down

from Running to Rome: Leadership, Family, Faith and the Marathon Journey · host AdamCib

Episode 4: The Discipline to Slow DownThis week, a long training run becomes a lesson in leadership, faith and life. As I prepare for the Rome Marathon, I reflect on the challenge of running slowly—something that proved far harder mentally than physically.In a world that rewards speed, quick decisions and instant results, this episode explores why some of the most important growth happens when we deliberately slow down. From leadership in schools to the rhythms of prayer, family life and marathon training, I share how patience, reflection and discipline are shaping this journey.Sometimes the most disciplined thing we can do isn't push harder—it's slow down long enough to listen, learn and trust the process.Plus, a new segment at the end of the episode as one of my children joins me to ask a few questions about the journey so far.
