Welcome to Coach Bennett's podcast, where every run has a purpose, where kindness is

hardcore, where this is about running, and this is not about running, where every starting

line is a finish line in disguise, where rambling still gets you where you need to be, where

pineapple will never ruin your pizza, and the sodas, adult and not adult kind are always cold,

and where there is room on the starting line for everybody i'm

coach bennett thank you for letting me be a part of your day let's get started all right welcome to

episode 123 that's right one two three of coach bennett's podcast we are back in in Portland and I don't know why I'm referring to me

in the plural, but I am. We're back in Portland. It's been a crazy month of travel. I was in

Berlin for the Berlin Marathon and just a few few weeks before that, I obviously was in Jersey,

the land of milk and honey, visiting family, moving kids in to colleges, seeing Oasis. I mean,

it was wild. But then, like I said, Berlin Marathon and then came back for just a few days

to beautiful, peaceful Portland and then headed

out to Portugal for like a week and then came back. I think I was home for another two days.

But prior to that, actually one of those two days I was home was the Portland Marathon, which was amazing and beautiful and peaceful.

And then I headed out to Chicago for the Chicago Marathon, one of my favorite events every single year.

And I just got back yesterday yesterday so here we are back in

Portland or a gown okay or I should say aura back get it okay that was that was pretty weak I

liked it personally but I know that some of you out there have excessively high expectations for my jokes.

And that's okay.

But I think considering the context saying I'm back in Oregon or whatever, if I'm explaining the joke, maybe it's not a success,

which brings me to the name of this podcast episode,

which is success.
