In a way, the reason I produce Phedippidations is so I can make the world just a tiny bit better than it was before I started to produce this podcast. I understand that this is something Iâll most likely fail at and that my efforts here might be considered a colossal waste

of time, however noble and altruistic this might seem. BUT: thereâs always that small conditional word âIFâ.
As in: IF I can inspire just one human being, who might by accident listen to this goofy little podcast and become inspired to rise off the couch of doom to live a better and more happier life: then fellow runners; Iâm here to tell you: MISSION FRIGGIN ACCOMPLISHED! That will be a day for a celebratory glass of Malbec: because thatâs all it takes: just change the world for a single human being among us, and we will have satisfied our purpose in this lifeâwe will have made an improvement through our examplesâ.thatâs the challenge: life your life in a way that inspires others to lace up their shoes and take to the road with us, and youâll have made the universe just a little bit better than it was before they were so inspired.
This life is a gift, and my reasons for producing Phedippidations is both to celebrate the gift and serve a purpose that is much MUCH more important than this middle aged, middle of the pack, slightly asthmatic fellow runner.
Why do I produce Phedippidations each week? Because, in a way, although itâs not easy to explain, and certainly not at noble as it soundsâthatâs what feel like Iâm called to do.
Thank you so much for supporting me over these past four years and 200 episodes. It is both a pleasure and an honor to call you a fellow runner.
