Buckle up! This week, Coach Brian and Mandy Mullen sit down with Chris Avery, a man who went from "accidental runner" to planning one of the most ambitious physical feats we’ve ever heard on the show.
Chris shares the story of how a spur-of-the-moment marathon with zero training ignited a fire that hasn’t gone out since. Now, he’s preparing for his biggest "why" yet: running the entire perimeter of the United States in 2027 with his family by his side.
In this episode, we discuss:
How a "run every day" streak can shift your entire identity.
The 2027 Challenge: Why Chris is taking his family on a journey around the edge of the country.
The mental grit required to lead by example for your children.
Why "starting small" is the only way to achieve something massive.
