443. My 2021 New York City Marathon Experience

Published: Nov. 11, 2021, 10 a.m.

\u201cI love what I do. I didn\u2019t know any of these jobs existed a few years ago. I didn\u2019t know I could be a podcaster, I didn\u2019t know I could be a race announcer. Now that I\u2019m not only doing them, but I feel really fulfilled\u2026and I know that can be fleeting. So I\u2019m really basking in it.\u201d

After more than 700 days, the TCS New York City Marathon was back this weekend! And I had the best week ever \u2014 without even running the marathon! On this episode, I'm talking all about my week in New York City, where I did my best to master the balance between work and pleasure. (I'm giving myself a solid A+ on that assignment.) I talk (in excessive detail) about all of the work and all of the play, from live shows and finish line race announcing to earning a new 5K PR, galavanting around the city, and seeing as many friends as possible. And, unsurprisingly, I shed a few tears along the way.
