Hey, everybody, Emily Abadi here. You are listening to Five Minute Friday. Can I tell you the most unfortunate thing? I am, this is not unfortunate. I am in Palm Springs. Right now, I came out to Indian Wells for the tennis tournament and some work, which I'll talk about in today's episode. But on my last day in this hotel, I realized that the television has free HBO. I do not have HBO at home, but I, because I don't have HBO, have not yet watched heated rivalry.

And I realized it today that I had the opportunity to watch it.

If you're not new here, you know that I'm obviously a passionate runner.

I've been doing loads of hosting over, gosh, I mean, at least the last eight years since I started this show at events that have to do with

run. And so now I'm really looking to put myself out there and have opportunities that involve other sports. And so that is something

really excited about. It's something I'm really excited about and it's something that I know

won't come easy. I know that having this base of hosting is super critical to doing this work.

I know that I do this work well, and that's something

that I want to say with my whole chest. I have been in situations where I've been up for
