Hey, Founder's Fire family—Eric Beck here. In this episode, I’m getting personal. Four years, four attempts, and this year, I finally crossed the finish line of the JFK 50, America’s oldest ultra-marathon. I came in dead last, but what I learned along the way made it all worth it.
Here’s what we’ll unpack:
- Why finishing last might be the best thing that ever happened to me.
- The importance of choosing hard things before life chooses them for you.
- How physical health fuels mental clarity and freedom.
- A simple practice to help you treasure life’s moments before they’re gone.
This isn’t just about running—it’s about agency, resilience, and showing up for the life you want.
👉 Let’s talk about what it means to choose your hard. Head to FoundersFire.com for more insights and info about our upcoming retreat in Destin, Florida.
