Episode 7- Brett Sobieraski's Return After 50 Marathons in a Row
*Episode note- This episode is difficult to listen to. Not because of the content, but because I messed up. I broke an important rule of podcasting and did not do a quick audio test and playback before I started recording. If I had done that, I would have known the equipment was improperly set up. As a result, the quality of the recording is poor. That is my fault and I apologize. Brett's message deserves to be heard, so here it is.
Join us as I talk with Brett Sobieraski after he completed "8 States for Maz", 50 marathons a day for 50 days in a row through 8 states beginning in Florida and ending at the Fallen Police Officer's Memorial in Rochester, New York to honor murdered Rochester Police Officer, Anthony "Maz" Mazurkiewicz. We talked about running up hill and your inner bitch voice. Support from local businesses. Physical rehab and pre-hab. What he did when he wasn't running. His high point. The conduit. The humanity tour. Figuring out how to get off the couch, determine your "why", and get started toward your goals. And what is next for Brett Sobrieski???
