Tom Dean is one of those rare individuals who are able to connect their life work to their passion areas, in creating synergy between running, faith and work (publishing) life! He sets the bar high for those of us exploring running culture and what it is to make a good life. From the perspective of a running anthropologist, this is not one to miss! Hear about some of Tom's favorite runs, books, and join us as we journey through a few decades of devotion to running. For Tom, the ability to work with and publish the likes of Ryan Hall (Run the Mile You're In: Finding God in Every Step) and Sanya Richard Ross (Chasing Grace) has been a gift and learning experience he has applied many lessons to his faith and personal life. With an incredible background and skill set in book publishing and marketing, Tom then took this and applied it to sharing the gospel (of running and his faith). Integration of various aspects of our being and what we value may seem hard to do at times, yet running is a passion which parallels so many other life and happiness factors. This is a reminder of one of my favorite spiritual psychology quotes, “Happiness cannot be sought, but must ensue from the search for meaning.” --Dr. Viktor Frankl In this conversation, we cover a wide range of topics in work and running, but focus on his most recent Hood to Coast endeavour and meeting his goal of 1,000 miles per year for over a decade! What motivates him, allows him to reach his goals and keeps him running each day? Well, some of it you'll have to listen to find out, but one tip is setting a monthly goal and having target races, and not getting too distraught if ‘our best-made plans don't turn out the first time'. For Tom, the important thing is setting both reasonable and attainable goals that we can build on over time, and keeping his spiritual life at the center of all he does. Reflecting on our conversation, I realize this applies to not only running, also career challenges and life transitions, which we've all had a lot of the past 2 years during Covid! And his wisdom shared here certainly translates to family and other relationships we value. Tom can be found on social media @thomaspdean or find his publishing company at https://www.adropofink.pub/ As always, look forward to hearing your impressions and what you have to share in the world of running, spirituality and running as therapy!

Ryan outlines how he went from a basketball loving teenager who had no interest in running to one day feeling inspired to run a 15 mile lap of his local lake. Ryan shares around why he thinks that eating a lot of bread the day before he ran 59:43 may have been so important, the concept of why happy feet make light feet, while listening to your body more than your watch can be so important in training.

Key Links: Twitter: @ryanhall3 Instagram: @ryanhall3 Website Hall Steps Foundation Book: Run the Mile You’re In: Finding God in Every Step ___ On this week’s episode of the Hope Sports Podcast, Laura chats with elite runner Ryan Hall. Ryan picked up running as a young teen and quickly became a top competitor in California. He attended Stanford University where he ran cross country, but struggled academically and athletically, leading him to take time off his sophomore year. He battled severe negativity and depression as he came to terms with how much of his identity was wrapped up in his success as a runner. After reclaiming his emotional health, he returned to Stanford with a new mindset about competition - that it should be fun and would not determine his worth. After graduation, Ryan signed with ASICS to run professionally. He bumped up his distance after realizing that he was not posting competitive 5K times and the decision proved to be a wise one. In 2007, Hall was the first American to break the one hour mark in the half marathon, and followed that by logging the fastest debut marathon by an American at the race in London. His speed at that distance landed him a victory at the Olympic Trials and a spot on the team to Beijing. Ryan went on to compete in two Olympics and ran professionally for ten years. He and his wife, Sarah (also a professional runner) traveled around the world to train and compete and were moved by the immense need that they saw. They began racing for World Vision and eventually started the Hall Steps Foundation which supports a variety of projects worldwide as runners raise funds across the country. The Hall family grew in number when Ryan and Sarah adopted a sibling group of four sisters from Ethiopia. Ryan retired after a series of injuries, but did so with the heart to give back through speaking, writing, and coaching. His book, Run the Mile You’re In: Finding God in Every Step launches this April.
