These athletes no matter how many storms they have weathered, they continue to make the necessary repairs and keep moving forward. They may have a few cracks in their foundation or a squeeky step and their patina's may continue to fade but they are no less glorious than years prior!! In fact we feel they have more heart, character and resolve as they have weathered! They provide the pathway and set the standard that we should all live by.
Weathered Athlete Podcast is Seeking Listener Support
The Weathered Athlete Podcast would like to provide the blueprint by bringing in those individuals that have made the necessary repairs to keep moving forward. I will also spend time talking with the coaches and Health Care Professionals that will help provide the necessary guidance to be successful.
If you like what you hear or know of others that may benefit from the message. I encourage you to help this venture succeed by joining our Listener Support Program. Every dollar you entrust will go towards improving the quality and reach of the program. Initially you may think this is only a triathlon or running podcast and it won’t provide me any insight. I assure you with your help and connections this program will cover all activities and help us ALL from not going quietly into the night.
The thought is that the hardest part of walking 1 mile is taking the 1st step. I promise you that is much easier with others. So, I encourage you to hop on the Weathered Athlete Bandwagon. You won’t be disappointed. In fact, you may be amazed at the distances you can travel.
Thank You
