In life we must take things one day at a time, taking baby steps to accomplish our goals. As a runner that runs 100 milers, I have to remind myself to take things one mile at a time to get to the finish line. This podcast touches on how life and sports relate.
The Mile You're In podcast is a refreshing and relatable show centered around running, hosted by Phil Patterson Jr. With an easygoing and relatable approach, Phil covers various topics related to running while also addressing real-life issues. As a casual runner, this podcast has quickly become my favorite due to its genuine and honest content.
One of the best aspects of The Mile You're In podcast is Phil's ability to tackle real issues in addition to discussing the world of running. Episode 10, in particular, touches on important topics that go beyond the sport itself. This depth adds an extra layer of value to the podcast and makes it worth listening to for anyone, whether they are a runner or not.
Furthermore, Phil's soothing voice adds a calmness and comfort to each episode. His authentic approach creates an atmosphere that makes it easy to connect with and enjoy his content. The intro music is also professionally done, setting the tone for what listeners can expect from the rest of the episode.
While there aren't many drawbacks to The Mile You're In podcast, some listeners might have different expectations based on its title. The podcast does delve into other topics aside from running, which may surprise some listeners initially. However, this should not be seen as a negative aspect but rather as a unique standpoint that sheds light on various subjects.
In conclusion, The Mile You're In podcast is a must-listen for both runners and non-runners alike. Its honest and genuine approach provides valuable insights into running while covering essential topics that go beyond the sport itself. With Phil's soothing voice and professional intro music, this podcast offers a unique perspective that keeps listeners engaged from start to finish.

One man's trash is another man's treasure. We all find value in different things. Our opinions on what's valuable and what isn't will always vary. It doesn't necessarily mean anyone is right or wrong. It just means, we should know our worth and believe in what we feel we deserve. If the situations don't align, it just means there's a better one out there for you. This episode touches on examples of ones value being treasured by one person compared to another.

In life, we make a lot of decisions. Most, if not all of the time, we're out of control of the final outcome. We may be able to help our chances at things going our way, but in the end, there are other factors that come into play that can cause things not to go the way we hoped or expected. Sometimes things happen in our favor, sometimes they don't. Whatever it is we are hoping for, will happen, if it's meant to be. I share the story that led me to record this episode and discuss some other examples as well.
