Beta Blocker Dreams, USATF 15k and Barkley Marathons / March 20, 2021

@BStulberg Just like you become your habits, you also become the people with whom you surround yourself. Choose wisely.  You might think this means happy or positive people. But I'd challenge you to also think about it as authentic, vulnerable, honest, humble, and curious people too.  When @daddy_drinks decided to spend a month practicing various breathing exercises, he went all in. He even started taping his lips shut before bed, which, of course, sounds odd. But the results are hard to argue with.  Dominant win for Emily Sisson at the USATF 15K champs in Jacksonville.  Meanwhile BYU’s big week continues as 2019 NCAA 10k champ Clayton Young takes the men’s title (with another BYU alum, Nico Montanez, in 4th).  Sara Hall with an insightful quote on running track workouts ahead of June's Olympic Trials (and why she thinks it will help her fall marathon too): "I miss marathon training. I would marathon grind all year long if I could. But doing that makes you slow."  @KarenRunsFar Early happenings: one runner came back to camp 40 minutes into the race because he forgot his bib; another started 58 minutes late. #BM100 #protips: if you want a quiet ride, get a #Jeep Compass. If you want to hear sounds, like a conch at 2:04 am, do not get yourself a Jeep Compass. They are sound proof. Guess why I know.  https://twitter.com/AndyNoiseIn March of 2020, I slipped on the illegally dumped cooking grease in front of John’s Burger and couldn’t walk for 6 weeks. This was my first injury since I started Endurance Training in 1979. Then in late April of 2020, I ended up in the hospital for the first time in my life. The diagnosis was Congestive Heart Failure.   This Vlog / Podcast documents my Sixth Decade of Endurance Training. The past Decade was about HOW FAR I could go.  This Decade will be about HOW FAST can I go post Congestive Heart Failure. https://linktr.ee/AND3RSON
