Once again technology got the best of us and we were not able to shot video. Back to the audio which may provide a nice break again from our mugs 😊. We did spend some time catching up on a big week with birthdays, 1st day of school, 1st soccer games, carpet installs, a fender bender and a metric ton of Manning’s Ice Cream. All that said though, we did have a topic to discuss, and it was around heroes and how we all have the ability to be one!
Can we be a hero and not be inspiring? Tough question and we dig into it.
Unfortunately Mike’s day got sideways and needed to finish up some work after recording so he stuck with good old water. Bryan was fortunate and took advantage with some tasty Hop Valley Mango & Stash out of Eugene, OR.

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.
Bryan & Mike
