You’ve crossed the finish line, achieved something incredible, and then… it’s just over. Now what? This week on the Running Lean podcast, I’m diving deep into The In-Between: What Happens After Your Big Race. This is the space few runners talk about — that strange, quiet period after your big event when the structure disappears, the endorphins fade, and you’re left feeling a little lost. In this episode, I’ll walk you through what’s really happening mentally, emotionally, and physically during this time, and how to handle it like an athlete — with wisdom, care, and long-term perspective. You’ll learn how to recover the right way, rebuild your mindset, and reignite your purpose so you stay consistent and strong between seasons. Because running isn’t just about one race — it’s about who you become for life.
The post 304. The In-Between: What Happens After Your Big Race appeared first on Running Lean with Patrick McGilvray.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
