Description

We have to ask forgiveness for missing lasts weeks episode. It was a week that was not ideal for our schedules and when one was available the other was not. So, sorry if you missed us but maybe that is our ego’s talking and no one really missed us that much 😊. This week we tried to remember what we wanted to talk about last week and after a few senior moments we remember. It was from a Dax Sheppard podcast with Adam Grant! Today we dig into the topic of “Wonderlust – desire to be in a constant state of wonder.” Additionally, we tackle the concepts of “maximizers & satisfiers,” and being content, at peace, and “living with anything.” We end up with discussing what does it mean to really “make it?”

We went all over the dial and come the conclusion again that life is so much better when experienced with the one’s you love – no matter what those experiences may be.

During today’s recording, Bryan again enjoyed a Fort Collins, CO favorite in New Belgium’s Voodoo Ranger Imperial IPA. Mike stayed local to AZ with a Four Peaks Brewing Co.’s Hazy IPA.

How’d we get here?

The Ultra Dad’s Podcast came from an idea Cindy Shane created. Well, she planted the idea in our head after listening to the first time Bryan was on the RFP Podcast in May 2020. There have many times over the years when we speak on the phone or in person the “we should be recording this” line comes out. Well, here we are jumping in with both feet, like we tend to do, sharing with you our perspectives on life. Let’s be candid – we are not perfect, and we fail often. Our favorite term to use is “it’s not ideal” and there have been countless times we’ve uttered, “a plan is great until you are punched in the face;” – but we do laugh a lot, at ourselves and/or each other mostly 😊. All that said, there are those brief moments where things tend to fall into place and we, somehow, make it to that finish line – as ultrarunners yes, but most importantly has husbands, fathers, friends, and human beings. We wanted to share those imperfections and those incredible moments that we’ve been fortunate enough to experience together over the last 30+ years. So, sit back, grab a cold one, and hopefully this will be another time where things fall into place.
