- Unapologetically You, Always
Welcome!
This is the OutChasing 5 newsletter.
Each week before your long run Saturday, I send out a quick five which consists of Fuel for Thought, a Quick Win, Inspiration Station, a Pro Tip, and a personal Sign Off from me or the team.
We’re here to silently or loudly cheer you on in your endeavor.
We’re here for you so reach out if you need anything!
Fuel for Thought
Dan Horgan made a post on LinkedIn this week about this song really striking a note and darn it if this doesn’t also hit me like a brick as well.
Now I do enjoy what I do and who I work with.
BUT sometimes you need adventure to push yourself to new limits on a personal level to find satisfaction.
The thing is you can enjoy (and be good at it) what you do for work and still search for more meaning in life outside of the 9-5. That is OK!
We are here for you.
Quick Win
Start today.
Nourish your soul.
Find your new hobby.
Chase your new goal.
Just do it today.
Inspiration Station
Choose your hard.
Pro Tip
This is something I have made a point to emphasize for my daughters.
I have found being myself has taken me much further than being what is expected of me.
Unapologetically you, always.
Sign Off
Heck of a week. First off our very own Mike Barnum raced the Santa Cruz Ironman 70.3 this past weekend and he crushed it! He is feeling strong post race and already thinking about what is next. Love it!
Second, I had a chance to catch up on the phone with a fellow OutChasing member this past week after a 12 year gap. It is amazing what the endurance world can do with bringing people together. Also, I am beginning to notice there is a very similar mindset amongst ultra athletes and I am so excited to explore this deeper.
This is a great segue into the podcast, I have begun reaching out to potential folks and getting AMAZING responses. So far I am 3 for 3 and of those people they have recommended more people to add to my list. So far I am at 12 people I would love to talk to but let me know if you can think of anyone else!
At this point I am finalizing the podcast logo with my Wife (the visual, maker-prettier of the two of us by far haha) and will be reaching out to contractors soon to come up with a cool sounding intro. Let me know if you have any podcasts you love that maybe I can get more ideas from!
Super excited for what is to come!
Good luck on your weekend workouts!
