Have you been to New York City? Have you toured Times Square and Central Park?
How about RUNNING 13.1 miles through New York City? Now that's a unique view!
I did run New York City, and I had a great time! This podcast episode is about my run, my training and the life lessons I learned along the way that you can draw from to inspire and sharpen your daily walk in work and life.
We started in Prospect Park in Brooklyn and ran Flatbush Avenue to the Manhattan Bridge. We had one side of the bridge to ourselves and it was spectacular crossing the East River and viewing the Manhattan Skyline (see video below). Once in Manhattan we ran north along the river and then turned west onto 42nd St. and headed into primetime with a glorious right turn north into Times Square! We continued north through Times Square and into Central Park where we did nearly a full loop to finish out the 13.1 mile race.
Just a note...this is a different podcast from my norm. You are going to start seeing some shifts in my podcast episodes as I broaden my podcast focus. I'm going to focus on web, social, and business as I have, but I'm going to more intentionally focus on a few key areas that have grown in importance for me: Fitness and Mission. I'm all about having each of us living life to the fullest and that happens best when we are healthy and have a focus and mission. I'll be sharing stories from my journey and what I'm learning along the way!

I encourage you to stop right now and read those points again.
This time think about yourself. What's a big goal you have or that you need to have? Now go through the steps and write things down!
NOTE: I talk about a unique training plan I did. I literally ran 2 days a week, some weeks 1x, and did a load of strength and cross-training. I can't say enough about HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training workouts) that get your heart rate up and work full-body muscle groups.

I’m an Indiana Hoosier native where basketball is the top sport. Every team heads to the locker room at halftime to evaluate the first half and create an updated plan for the second half. That plan includes adjustments based on reviewing what worked and what didn't. The “halftime” is a key review point where the game stops, the team pulls away to huddle in the locker room away from the fans, and they come out prepared and ready to succeed in the second half.
That’s what this podcast is all about, taking the time to pull away for a bit to evaluate, learn, and set some strategies for your business to succeed in the second half. Join me by subscribing and let me be your “business halftime” to help you find great success going forward!
