015 | Recapping The First Half Marathon of My Life

On Saturday November 20th, 2021, Stephen ran in the first half marathon of his life. Today's episode of Teeth Time is the full story. Stephen begins by describing his long-time relationship with running which was one that was not conducive to electively running in a half marathon. During the pandemic, however, Stephen's opinions on running changed, and, almost two years later, he reached the peak of his running career by completing the Nashville half marathon. 

Stephen details the ins and outs of half marathon prep, race morning, the race itself, and the aftermath of the massive run. He also looks ahead to the future of his physical fitness endeavors and toys with the idea of running a full marathon in the future. 

While this episode of Teeth Time does not cover dental school or dentistry directly, it details the passion of someone who uses running as an escape from these things. This episode is a testament to the achievements one can experience when they truly commit their mind, body, and spirit to a goal. Time to talk about a long run! It's Teeth Time!!
