Profiles in Courage

from The Stubborn Tortoise · host Donna Pazdera

It really is something to behold when you are a witness to a person's first trail race, much less their first 10K, marathon or 50K. But on Friday, I was fortunate to watch a number of folks tackle those benchmarks with grit and character. I was dispensing advice, cheer and sustenance as they passed through our aid station every 3.5 miles or so. It was uplifting to watch them finish. On a separate note, I was very heartened to learn that this very podcast is so useful to people. I mean, it's not for the front-of-the-packers. There are plenty of shows about them. This is for regular folks -- especially newbies and master's runners. It means a lot when I get random, positive feedback. Thank you!
