Most people never discover how great they truly are—not because they lack talent, but because they never show up with their full effort. They hedge. They wait until they feel perfectly confident, perfectly prepared, perfectly safe. But here's the gritty truth: Confidence doesn't come first. Action does. You don't build belief by standing still. You build it through movement—through showing up, pushing past the urge to hold back, and choosing effort over ego. So this week, forget perfect. Forget ready. Just show up. Fully. Give it a real go—not halfway, not with excuses, but with honest effort. That's how grit is forged. That's how potential is revealed. You don't need to be fearless—you just need to be there. TriDot Workout of the Week: Bike-Run Bricks Welcome back to another segment of the TriDot Workout of the Week. Session Note This session is best done on a trainer.

Let's kick it off with four quick hit questions to get to know each other just a little better!" Questions: What are three words you would use to describe yourself?

In this episode of the podcast, leadership strategist Alan is joined by Brandon Young—Army Ranger veteran, leadership expert, and co-founder of Applied Leadership Partners. Together, they explore how leaders can develop the mindset and skill set to thrive, not just survive, through seasons of high pressure, deep uncertainty, and prolonged adversity. Brandon brings over 25 years of frontline leadership experience, from elite military operations to scaling nonprofits and navigating complex corporate restructures. This isn't a theoretical conversation—it's a grounded, real-world exploration of how mission-focused leaders can build perseverance, resist burnout, and lead with clarity in unpredictable environments. Topics Covered: Brandon's formative years in the Army and how special operations shaped his leadership foundation The difference between endurance and perseverance—and why the latter is essential for modern leaders Why leaders are facing “justification fatigue” and how to build speed to trust using the C.A.R.E. model (Candor, Authenticity, Reliability, Empathy) How to counter the loneliness of leadership through shared emotional load and intentional relational rhythms Strategic pauses vs. false finish lines: how tactical rest can save your mission The five pillars of perseverance: Change, Uncertainty, Acceptance, Choice, and Growth Why clarity—not certainty—is the real antidote to fear-based decision-making How to lead others through ambiguity using frameworks drawn from combat-tested leadership models Practical tips for shrinking your world to reclaim agency and make wise decisions under pressure Key Takeaways: Leadership doesn't have to be lonely—but it does have to be intentional. False finish lines will break your team. Build tactical halts into your rhythm. Clarity creates agency. Shrink your focus, extend your vision. Rest isn't quitting—it's preparation for longevity in mission-critical environments. The mission is greater than the moment. Don't mistake pressure for purpose.

Send us a textJoin us as we begin our new study on the book of James. In this episode we cover the first eleven verses that challenge us in how we see the tests and trials in our life.Questions:Part 1With the understanding that James was Jesus' half brother, they grew up in the same house knowing each other as kids, teenagers, and then adults. James is now calling him “Lord” What do you think convinced James that Jesus, his crucified brother, is now his Lord and Messiah?As Christians, we are encouraged to view trials as a source of joy because that is how endurance grows, and through endurance we become “complete, needing nothing.” Can you think of any examples where you have seen this played out in your life or the lives of others?Part 2Have you ever thought about the fact that God doesn't get frustrated with your questions? When was the last time you went to God and asked Him for wisdom on something?We talked about some ways that we can build our faith.Take some time to share areas in your life where you see that God didn't fail you.When you think about that, what does it do to your faith in this moment?Part 3Money doesn't buy everything. What are some things in your life that clearly are because of God and not money?What are some ways we can better use what God has given us to honor Him?Thank you for listening to the One Loud Voice podcast.

Despite the fact that so many of them make it look easy, the daily lives of senior U.S. military leaders can be incredibly demanding. Laura Weimer examined how senior leaders manage their well-being (or, at times, struggle to do so) amidst these demanding careers, and she's in the studio with host JP Clark to share her discoveries. Drawing from her research, Weimer highlighted the unique pressures of senior roles, including frequent relocations, intense scrutiny, and the weight of consequential decisions. She also discussed the inevitable challenges of mid-life, such as caring for aging parents and navigating evolving family dynamics, which compound work-related stress. Weimer's key takeaway? Developing a strong sense of identity, meaning, and purpose is essential for fostering resilience and sustaining leadership effectiveness. I don't know if necessarily it's the Army's job to help us figure out our identity. I do think it would be valuable for the Army to acknowledge the value of those conversations and maybe even prompt those conversations.

What do you do when ongoing struggles make you doubt whether you want to press on in following Jesus? Remember that endurance you had when you first came to Jesus–remember it, reclaim it, and press on in it! We're excited for you to join us for our last message in Hebrews (10:32-39)!
This week, Jess Ninaber brought a timely and powerful word from Hebrews 12 about running the race of faith with endurance. Drawing from the context of early Christians facing persecution, we're reminded that the call to follow Jesus is not a casual stroll—it's a costly, all-in commitment that requires laying aside every weight and sin that entangles us. The Christian life is not a sprint but a pilgrimage, one that demands focus, perseverance, and a heart fixed on Jesus. Endurance isn't glamorous, but it's essential. This is a race worth finishing strong.

In this powerful message from Hebrews 12, Pastor Craig Stephens challenges us to run the race of faith with endurance. Drawing on the imagery of a marathon, we're reminded to lay aside every weight and sin that slows us down and to fix our eyes on Jesus—the author and perfecter of our faith. Through practical insights and biblical truth, this sermon calls for spiritual decluttering, letting go of anything that hinders your pursuit of God. Learn how Jesus endured the cross for the joy set before Him and how His example strengthens us in every hardship. Whether you're in a season of struggle or simply in need of encouragement, this message will remind you: God is with you, and His promises are unshakable.
This week at our Perdido Key Campus, Senior Pastor Kyle Valaer continues preaching expositionally through the gospel of Luke in our series, “ And So It Begins.” We hope this resource is a blessing to you. For more information about the Point Church, please visit us online at www.tothepoint.church.Take Aways: Be aware of the danger of confusing your enjoyment of genuine biblical teaching with your need to be changed by genuine biblical teaching.You only prove your recognition of His authority in your life when your life is different because of His authority.Following Jesus involves action because true faith in Him leads to action.Endurance isn't a matter of knowledge...it's a matter of obedience.If Jesus isn't your Lord, then He's not your Savior either. 6. It's easier to admire the teachings of Jesus than it is to obey the teachings of Jesus.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is more common than you think—and it's not just about feeling a little “meh.” With shorter days and less sunlight disrupting our serotonin and melatonin balance, Mikki explains why we crave carbs, struggle with low mood, and experience poor sleep. She unpacks the nutritional tools that can make a real difference, from key supplements like creatine and vitamin D, to protein and gut health support. Whether you experience SAD or just feel off in winter, this episode is packed with doable, science-backed tips to help lift your mood and energy.Topics Covered:The brain chemistry behind SAD and winter carb cravingsHow creatine, omega-3s, and vitamin D support mental healthWhy protein and B vitamins matter for serotonin productionThe gut-brain connection and its role in moodCarb timing and antioxidant foods to improve winter wellbeing Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order
Join us live as we dive into a powerful message on endurance—what it looks like to keep going when life gets hard. This week’s teaching from the "I Needed to Hear That" series will inspire you to stay grounded in faith and purpose, even through the toughest seasons.
One of my jobs as a pastor is funerals. Funerals are hard. Families hurting, grieving, trying to make sense of the pain. Sometimes they are struggling with regret or shame, like they could have done more, or loved the one they lost more. That’s why in almost every funeral I do, like for James yesterday, I turn to today’s passage in Romans. You’ll see why. In those moments, people don’t need pious clichés, polished religion, “thoughts & prayers. They need something real. They need rock-solid truth. They need to know for certain that God hasn’t let go. That He’s still holding on. But here’s the thing: this passage wasn’t actually written for funerals. It was written for life. Why do we wait until a funeral, a crisis, or when it feels like it’s too late, to turn to promises meant for everyday life? Paul wrote these words so all of us would know, in good times or bad, God’s sovereign grace has no limit and no rival. So all God’s elect can know that grace has no limit to its power over any kind of darkness this life can threaten us with. So, when our life feels blessed, or feels like a grind, or a mess, or even catastrophic, this truth is our anchor. Don’t just quote it at a funeral. Live it in the fight. This isn’t just a promise for the end. It’s power for right now.
In this episode of the LoCo Experience, I welcomed accomplished author, speaker, and teacher Gregg Vanourek into the studio. We discuss his recent book 'Triple Crown Leadership,' which he co-wrote with his father. The book uses the metaphor of the Triple Crown in horse racing to describe the triple crown of leadership: excellence, ethics, and endurance. We discussed the extensive research and interviews involved in developing their book and leadership model - which aims to help leaders achieve exceptional results with integrity and sustainability.Gregg shares insights into his diverse professional journey, including his experience with think tanks and founding a startup foundation focused on education reform, which ultimately led him to move their family to Sweden. There, he taught entrepreneurship and leadership at the Royal Institute of Technology - Sweden's equivalent to MIT. The conversation delves into the significance of understanding oneself and discovering one's passions and strengths, especially for young adults. Greg offers advice on trusting oneself, paying attention to one's interests, and taking action to experiment and learn. He underscores the value of being in community with others to gain insights and support in navigating life's transitions. Gregg also reflects on his family life, including the challenges and rewards of moving from Sweden back to the U.S. with his wife and daughters. He highlights the importance of finding balance and joy in both professional and personal endeavors.The episode concludes with a light-hearted discussion about memorable life moments, such as Gregg's adventurous trip to the Netherlands without a passport, and the role of music in his life. He'll be our keynote speaker and workshop leader at the LoCo member event this fall - Aim to Thrive - and I know you'll enjoy getting to know my new friend, Gregg Vanourek.The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more
#491 IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder Race Recon Welcome Welcome to Episode #491 of the 303 Endurance Podcast. We're your hosts Coaches Rich Soares and April Spilde. Thanks for joining us for another week of interviews, coaching tips and discussion. It's IRONMAN Boulder 70.3 Central up in here! It seems like every day I'm bumping into another athlete who is registered to race Boulder 70.3. We have six athletes between us that are racing.

It's a dang early morning, but you are also done relatively early and will have a blast! https://ironman.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer/?id=88391&job_name=transition%20t1 Get Gritty Tip: Our Well-being Lies in Our Actions Marcus Aurelius If your happiness relies on your accomplishments, what happens if fate intervenes you don't? What you do achieve everything you set out to achieve and nobody is impressed? We should take pleasure from our actions, rather from the results that come from them. When we celebrated Paul Hunziker's success and his marathon PR, we weren't focused on the outcome. Yes that was the PR was the click bait, but the interview there were more letters and words in “The Making of a” PR. The making is the point. The ambition should not be to win but to play with a full heartful effort. TriDot Workout of the Week: Broken 300's Welcome back to another segment of the TriDot Workout of the Week, where we break down a featured session designed to sharpen your edge and build specific skills that move the needle. This week, we're diving into the Broken 300's — a swim session that's as much about mental focus as it is about physical execution. “Broken” sets like this one force you to stay dialed in. You're not just logging meters — you're working precision, intensity control, and technique under fatigue. From Zone 4 intervals to strategic drill work and controlled builds, this set challenges your ability to switch gears, stay intentional, and swim with purpose from start to finish. So grab your goggles, shake off the autopilot, and let's break down what makes this workout so effective. First, "Broken" swim sets consist of one or more rounds of efforts totaling a specific distance such as Broken 300s. Each 300 effort may differ in intensity, technique, and/or number of rests within the effort. In addition to building fitness, these sets force you to maintain mental focus and be intentional with your intensity and technique. Main Set 2 x 150 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 @ Z2 (20 sec) 2 x 100 Drill/Swim Choice by 50 (20 sec) 3 x 100 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 Build to Z4 (20 sec) 2 x 100 Drill/Swim Choice by 50 (20 sec) 4 x 75 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 @ Z2 Cool Down Balance of time @ Z2 and/or repeat warmup drills as time permits. That wraps up this week's TriDot Workout of the Week. Remember, Broken 300's are more than just a swim set — they're a test of your ability to stay present, stay sharp, and push through structured discomfort. As always, don't just get through the workout — get something from it. Train with purpose, and bring that focus to your next race or challenge. Okay Rich, it's now time for our NEW fun segment! Are you ready? Fun Segment: Limerick Lane! Welcome to Limerick Lane: Guess That Swim Word! — the game where I drop a swim-themed limerick with one key word missing, and it's up to you to guess what it is. These little rhymes may be fun-sized, but don't let them fool you — your swim knowledge and wit are about to be tested! Game Instructions: Each limerick ends with a missing word that you have to guess. I will give one hint if you're stumped. Correct guesses earn you bragging rights… and maybe a virtual gold swim cap (or green)! A triathlete swam in the bay, But panicked and lost his way. He stopped mid-course, And swam back with force, Using only his arms — no _____. Hint: What does a pull buoy do? A coach with a stopwatch so fine, Shouted “Faster! You've got to make time!” With flip turns that stick, You'd better be quick, If you want to improve your next _____. Hint: Swim time. A swimmer once started aghast, But found that her energy had passed. By lap number four, She could sprint no more, She'd fallen prey to going out _____. Hint: Classic pacing mistake. He dove in with barely a glance, Ignoring the circle swim dance. He zigged and he zagged, The swimmers all nagged, And never gave sharing a _____. Hint: Good swimmers take turns in the lane! Closing: Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed, and enjoy the endurance journey!

To those that hold fast to the truth of the Gospel in the face of those that refuse to recognize Christ, there is the promise that they will not be put through the hour of trial; they will be placed immovably in the presence of God, as He first intended us to be.

Endurance sports are in the midst of a revolution that will change everything about what we think humans can do. This week at the Quad Rock 50 Mile, we felt it firsthand.David set a 14-minute course record at this classic, steep Colorado race. We break it all down, "no secrets" style. Topics: high-carb fueling, big hydration totals, why heat training might be the next frontier, pre-race meals and supplements, ice bandanas, gut training, downhill running, uphill treadmill, and lots more.No matter what distance you go or speed you run/bike/hike, there's a path within these approaches that will make everything easier, healthier, and more fun. It's one thing to talk about it... it's another thing to FEEL IT. We try to bring you within those feelings, laying it all out there so that you can use the playbook.Thank you so much for being here for the whole journey. If you told us when we started this podcast 5 years ago that we'd be 7 weeks before the Western States 100 with this level of hope, we'd have said you're dreaming. Listeners have made it all possible. You have showed us that love is waiting on the other end of both success and failure. It's one thing to say that results don't matter and that love is waiting either way. It's another to FEEL IT. Thank you and we love you.7 weeks until the Western States 100 Mile moonshot.

In this episode of the Addict II Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson interviews Scott Strode, founder of The Phoenix, about the transformative power of movement in recovery from addiction. They discuss the importance of bringing recovery into the light, building new identities through physical activity, and the role of forgiveness in healing. Scott shares his personal journey and insights on how community and shared experiences can foster resilience and strength in those recovering from addiction. In this conversation, Blu and Scott explore the transformative journeys of individuals in recovery, emphasizing the importance of community, support, and collective healing. They discuss the ethos of the Phoenix organization, which focuses on lifting each other and creating nurturing spaces for growth. Scott shares insights on endurance events as a means of connection and support, and highlights the significance of his book, 'Rise, Recover, Thrive,' which encapsulates the message of community and healing in recovery. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Recovery and Movement 04:28 The Power of Bringing Recovery into the Light 10:07 Building Identity Through Movement 14:20 Transforming Pain into Strength 22:40 The Role of Forgiveness in Recovery 29:10 Beyond Addiction: Embracing a New Identity 30:10 Transformative Journeys: From Pain to Purpose 33:36 Building a Nurturing Community: The Phoenix Ethos 36:48 The Power of Collective Recovery: A Movement, Not an Organization 40:30 Endurance Events: The Spirit of Support and Connection 48:27 Rise, Recover, Thrive: The Message of Community and Healing takeaways Movement was a key part of my recovery journey. Bringing recovery into the light helps combat shame. We need to create spaces for people to express their intrinsic strength. Community support is crucial in the recovery process. Identities can be rebuilt through athletic pursuits. Pain can be transformed into strength and motivation. We must innovate our approach to addiction recovery. Everyone has gifts to share in the recovery community. The journey of recovery can be painful but transformative. Coaching offers a different approach than traditional therapy. Community support is essential in the recovery process. The Phoenix ethos is about lifting each other up. Connection is vital for overcoming challenges in recovery. Endurance events foster a sense of community and support. The Phoenix is a movement, not just an organization. Healing is a collective effort, not an individual pursuit.

In this heartfelt and humor-filled episode, Mining Minds sits down with the unforgettable Patti Haye — mother, grandmother, storyteller, and true pioneer of family life. At 87 years young, Patti takes us on a powerful journey through her life growing up post World War II, navigating early motherhood, and supporting a family through decades of cross-country moves, strikes, and the Alaskan wilderness.

She talks about building homes from scratch (literally and metaphorically), the challenges of living frugally, and the joys of doing it all with love.
