RFP Podcast Episode #202 – Ultra Dad’s Session #13 – Awareness to Rebuild

We pulled today’s episode from some content offered by many; a quote from many but I originally heard it from Joshua Medcalf & the Train2BClutch Mental Training & Leadership seminar. “If you have the right skill sets you can rebuild.” We went a bit deep on this but still had some laughs and fun, along with some technical difficulties. The topics ranged from the victim vs. victor mentality, building houses, growth, persistency, lots of awareness, & battling that in and out of the comfort zone. Little change, Bryan enjoyed a PBR Extra – that’s right “EXTRA” with 6.5% ALC/VOL. I was a bit jealous since I had some tea and water. Yeah, figured it was the time to take a break leading up to the holidays. It was a good run & be back soon 😊. Keep an eye open for the new Ultra Dad’s Instagram account coming soon #ultra_dads. How’d we get here? The Ultra Dad’s Podcast came from an idea Cindy Shane created. Well, she planted the idea in our head after listening to the first time Bryan was on the RFP Podcast in May 2020. There have many times over the years when we speak on the phone or in person the “we should be recording this” line comes out. Well, here we are jumping in with both feet, like we tend to do, sharing with you our perspectives on life. Let’s be candid – we are not perfect, and we fail often. Our favorite term to use is “it’s not ideal” and there have been countless times we’ve uttered, “a plan is great until you are punched in the face;” – but we do laugh a lot, at ourselves and/or each other mostly 😊. All that said, there are those brief moments where things tend to fall into place and we, somehow, make it to that finish line – as ultrarunners yes, but most importantly has husbands, fathers, friends, and human beings. We wanted to share those imperfections and those incredible moments that we’ve been fortunate enough to experience together over the last 30+ years. So, sit back, grab a cold one, and hopefully this will be another time where things fall into place. Bryan & Mike
