In this episode of On Your Lead, Thad sits down with endurance athlete Christine O'Hara to unpack what it really takes to push through the hardest moments in ultra running—and in life.
Christine shares the story behind her experience at the Moab 240, a race that tests runners across 240 miles of desert terrain, sleep deprivation, and mental fatigue. But this conversation goes far beyond the race itself.
They dive into the mindset required to keep moving forward when things get difficult, the power of breaking overwhelming challenges down into one step at a time, and how the lessons learned on the trail translate directly into everyday life.
Christine also opens up about parenting, building strong families, and the importance of being present in a world filled with distractions.
This episode is a powerful reminder that when the path ahead feels impossible, sometimes the only thing you need to do is take the next step.
Whether you're a runner, leader, parent, or simply someone navigating a hard season, this conversation will leave you thinking about what it really means to keep moving forward.
