Podcast - Mile 58 - Moon Cup Cycles

Mile 58 is upon us already. Hard to believe that I've belted out so many of these shows. Even harder to believe that anyone listens to them. And while I spout off about my 24 Hour race goals, I'll ruin the ending and tell you I stopped at 43 miles, just one loop shy of my 50 mile goal.

The rest of the show gets into the highs and lows of running, training, and life. I know a few other runners out there go through the same thing but there are so many times I feel like I'm alone out there. Deep down I know I'm not but not many people are willing to talk about their mental baggage. Instead the sweep it under the rug and ignore it. Like it's Great Grannie's dress stuffed into a steamer truck with moth balls in the attic. Even though you dig out the dress every few weeks to wear it around the house without telling anyone, you'd feel ashamed if somebody knew about it. When really there's nothing to be ashamed of.

So there you have it. The moon cup cycles of a runner. Not to worry though because I'm a Lumberjack and I'm okay.

You can get your Moon Cup directly here or listen to it over on Podbean.

Do you have any idea if you can generate an RSS feed for the podcast?

I don't use itunes.

Kim - I don't use iTunes either. Refuse to; too much of a hassle. As for an RSS feed, it looks like http://thetk42one.podbean.com/feed/ will give you all the episodes. You can also use the RSS feed for my blog (http://tk42one.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss) but that would include all the posts, not just the podcast.
