In a way, the reason I produce Phedippidations is so I can make the world just a tiny bit better than it was before I started to produce this podcast.\xa0 I understand that this is something I\u2019ll most likely fail at and that my efforts here might be considered a colossal waste of time, however noble and altruistic this might seem. BUT: there\u2019s always that small conditional word \u201cIF\u201d.\nAs in: IF I can inspire just one human being, who might by accident listen to this goofy little podcast and become inspired to rise off the couch of doom to live a better and more happier life: then fellow runners; I\u2019m here to tell you: MISSION FRIGGIN ACCOMPLISHED!\xa0 That will be a day for a celebratory glass of Malbec: because that\u2019s all it takes: just change the world for a single human being among us, and we will have satisfied our purpose in this life\u2026we will have made an improvement through our examples\u2026.that\u2019s the challenge: life your life in a way that inspires others to lace up their shoes and take to the road with us, and you\u2019ll have made the universe just a little bit better than it was before they were so inspired.\nThis life is a gift, and my reasons for producing Phedippidations is both to celebrate the gift and serve a purpose that is much MUCH more important than this middle aged, middle of the pack, slightly asthmatic fellow runner.\nWhy do I produce Phedippidations each week?\xa0 Because, in a way, although it\u2019s not easy to explain, and certainly not at noble as it sounds\u2026that\u2019s what feel like I\u2019m called to do.\nThank you so much for supporting me over these past four years and 200 episodes.\xa0 It is both a pleasure and an honor to call you a fellow runner.\n- Steve\nShow Links:Program the Extra Mile Podcast phone number into your cell phone: 513-397-0525 \xa0 Fdip Blog of the Week: The song \u201cLike I Used To\u201d was by Black Lab
