It was a HUGE honor to host and share this live convo from Grandma's with marathon LEGEND, Dick Beardsley! We discussed his iconic 1982 'Duel In the Sun' with Alberto Salazar, his co-win in the 1981 inaugural London Marathon with Inge Simonsen, and his 2:09:36 course record at Grandma's in 1981 that stood for a remarkable 33 years! Dick is a great motivational speaker, a gifted storyteller, and an all-around amazing human. I'm so grateful for him sharing his time to lead our shakeout run, take photos, offer advice, and answer questions after our chat. Sharing some solo miles and stories with Dick will be something I'll always treasure!

Lots of reports of good ice bites and of course, many places are not quite there yet. Dick Beardsley checked in a couple weeks ago to preview the season and give early ice advice. It's always fun to talk with Dick Beardsley, who has never found a reason to NOT be enthusiastic.
Whether it's Lake Bemidji, Cass, Winni or the Turtle chain, Dick Beardsley is catching fish for his clients. He talks about the strong walleye bite this year and a multitude of other fish that have been in and out of his boat. Plus, it's Lake of the Week Day and Carl Pederson of the Walker Area Fisheries Office has the details.
It's hard to believe fourteen months are now in the rear view mirror of my podcasting odyssey. Like a long uphill climb at a steady pace, this season's guests inspired me upward--to discover what lies beyond the next bend in the road. My thoughts turn toward lessons from season three: the opportunity to meet kindred spirits, guides known through their works, old friends, even my earliest mentor from high school and college in Florida. I hope you enjoy these messages from our guests this season:Sara Slattery watched her father lose his entire business. Learning from her parents' examples of resilience, she picked herself up, turning disappointment into a new opportunity to grow. John Lee Dumas leveraged his experience from a pivot to swimming in high school, after an injury benched his basketball dreams. He applied the concept of putting in extra repetitions to his podcast career - over 3,600 episodes later hosting the world's leading daily entrepreneurial podcast. Growing up as a young black man in 1960's Georgia was not just difficult; it was life-threatening. Benny Vaughn realized that all these experiences sharpened his resolve, defining his life. Once Becky Karush learned the principles and essential strategies of writing from Suzanne Kingsbury at the Gateless Writer's Academy, she allowed her creative genius to flow. Today she teaches others to find their own creative force. Rock Wilk remembered sitting with Jack Rollins on a park bench when Jack was 99 years old. Jack reminded Rock of life's uncertainty, and the unknown around the next corner. Carwyn Sharp learned the value of clarity in communication, fostering an environment of trust. Vital feedback can be gleaned from mistakes, leading to an improvement system for his team. Finding your tribe - one that supports and challenges you, elevates your craft, and creates a nurturing environment - Molly Grant found this in the leatherworker's community. Jerry Lynch ran straight toward his passions, not allowing initial rejection to derail his dream. Through self-exploration, a totally new way of thinking about spirituality and sport awakened in him. Dick Beardsley has not lived an easy life, learning through faith and following his passions to find joy in the moment. Dick's attitude radiates hope for the survivor in all of us.

In the early eighties Dick Beardsley was one of world's most famous athletes. He is an American distance runner best known for his first-place tie in the 1981 London Marathon and his close finish with Alberto Salazar in the 1982 Boston Marathon— frequently referred to as The Duel in the Sun, compellingly told in the book by John Brant--where he ran 2:08:53 breaking the Boston course and American Records. After retiring from competition, he suffered a near fatal farming accident, requiring a five-month post-surgical recovery. From 1992-1995, he sustained three major car and cycling accidents, requiring over twenty surgeries. After each of his operations, pain medications were prescribed—to which he became severely addicted. It was a privilege to spend a moment with this inspirational speaker, fishing guide, iconic athlete, and champion of addiction recovery. I caught up with this native Minnesota outdoorsman away from his “floating office,” aboard his 19-foot fishing boat with his Dick Beardsley Fishing Guide Service. He and his wife Jill are co-owners of the Lake Bemidji Bed and Breakfast. Dick is a motivational speaker sharing his experiences of redemption, perseverance, and hope; he has spoken at fortune 500 companies, non-profit organizations, conferences, sporting events, prisons, and drug treatment centers.I hope you enjoy Dick's boundless enthusiasm, gratitude, and approach to Staying the Course, the title of his page turning book with co-author Maureen Anderson—a master class in overcoming life's adversities. We warmly welcome Dick to this episode of Intrinsic Drive™.
In this episode we are going to do a race recap of the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon. This marathon is special as there is so much meaning and history to it. In April of 1995, two men destroyed the Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City filling 168 people, 10 of which were children. This marathon exists to keep the memories of those victims alive and remind us that we can overcome hard things when we come together. One highlight of this marathon included an expo with a panel of legends (Bill Rodgers, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Dick Beardsley, and others) who were there to answer questions of the running community. In this episode we also got to interview race director Kari Watkins.
Dick Beardsley of Dick Beardsley Fishing Guide Service previews the opener and while the weekend and wind took care of a lot of ice, there was still some out there when we talked Friday. Plus, Dick survives a Fast Five and we put the spotlight on Park Rapids as the countdown continues to opener. We hear from the new Park Rapids Area Fisheries Supervisor Wade Massure.
The year is 1982. The place? The Boston Marathon, where a gutsy, relatively unknown underdog took on the renowned champion Alberto Salazar. They ran so closely together the final 9 miles that they'd monitor one another by watching the other's shadow on the steaming hot asphalt. The race represented not only one of the most exciting marathons in Boston history, but also a climax to each man's career. The depths to which each had to go in the final miles took such a toll that neither ever ran as well again. From the "Duel in the Sun" with Alberto Salazar to living with addiction, his son's heartbreaking suicide, thoughts about Salazar's choices and making the most of running and life, Dick Beardsley will take you on an amazing journey through this revealing and encouraging interview.Looking for weekly tips, tricks and turbo boosts to enhance your life?

For 9 miles -- from the Newton Hills to the finish line in Boston's Back Bay -- at the 1982 Boston Marathon, Dick Beardsley and Alberto Salazar raced in near perfect concert under the searing mid-day sun. As competitors melted away behind them and the crowd roared deafeningly beside them, Beardsley and Salazar remained so tightly knit that each could feel his opponent's gasping breath and could measure progress by the proximity of the two wiry shadows marauding the most famous streets in road racing. It was an edge-of-your-seat, back-and-forth drama rarely seen in marathoning. Ultimately, both men ran under 2 hours and 9 minutes -- a first in marathon history and a mark that only 1 American broke in 2021. The taxing heat, relentless surging, and unwillingness of either man to crack earned the 1982 Boston Marathon the well-deserved moniker: “The Duel in the Sun.” As that race's historic 40th anniversary nears, Dick Beardsley joined us earlier this week on his 66th birthday to recreate the 26.2 mile chase for the laurel wreath. He also shared his riveting personal journey of obstacles, tragedy, redemption, and hope.
Running legend Dick Beardsley has endured a series of setbacks that would cause many to stumble, yet he's prevailed and emerged stronger than ever with a story that's sure to inspire. Kelli Masters knows a thing or two about perseverance as well — she's an NFL agent and one of the most influential women in sports business. You'll hear from Amy Stephens on Heritage Hills and Mesta Park. And meet Yvette Trachtenberg — the businesswoman, mom and runner is tackling the Marathon for the first time.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OKCMarathonTwitter: https://twitter.com/okcmarathonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/okcmarathonThe Run to Remember Memorial Marathon podcast is sponsored and produced by Knox Studios, a creative studio and production partner for the modern media age.
