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

This week, the journey to Rome starts to feel real.After watching a fly-through of the Rome Marathon course for the first time, I reflect on the strange tension that comes when a dream shifts from being an idea to something tangible. But this episode becomes about more than marathon training.An early morning airport drop-off for my daughter Ava sparks an unexpected moment of hesitation, trust, and reflection on what leadership, fatherhood, and faith can look like during the season of Lent.From the quiet halls of an empty school before sunrise to a 15km run along the Adelaide coastline, this episode explores the space between holding on and letting go, certainty and trust, preparation and surrender.Because sometimes growth doesn’t begin when everything is planned.Sometimes it begins when we take the first step anyway.Week Two. One step closer to Rome
