Off Course
by Fast Labs
Off Course is the podcast about what happens when the racing is over and life begins. Endurance athletes have lives outside of their sport. Maintaining a healthy work, life, sport balance requires intention, discipline and a strong appetite for new experiences. "Part of what I love about all of the sports I coach and participate in, is the community of fun, interesting people that I get to do it all with. In this show I’m bringing you with me to all of the races I go to, and inviting you into all of the cool conversations I have with athletes, other coaches, and pros in endurance sports that I’m a part of. You’ll get to hear about who these people are off the racecourse, what makes them great athletes, what other hobbies they have, and how they maintain excellence in sport and life." -Grant Holicky, Host of Off Course
