Melissa Linden
Melissa is a hybrid athlete participating and competing in the sports of distance running, obstacle course racing, ultramarathons, endurance OCR, powerlifting, and Strongman. She also dabbles in functional fitness and CrossFit competitions for fun. She was guilted into running a 5K back in 2013 and fell so hard in love with the idea of setting, training for, and achieving a goal that she has been running ever since.
Along the way, she equally fell in love with being strong and lifting heavy and is determined to prove that it's possible to be a high-performing athlete in dissimilar sports. A mechanical engineer by day, she lives in New Jersey with her husband James, who you can find on top of Melissa's shoulders as she carries him across the Finish Line.

#098 - Prepare to be inspired by the remarkable story of Barry Karch, host of Running for Your Life Podcast, a passionate runner who, after a two-decade hiatus, reignited his love for the sport. Having once raced in up to 20 races per year, burnout set in and Barry stepped off the “track” for 20 long years.
Upon reaching his 60s, Barry realized that it was time for a change. This was a pivotal moment that sparked his journey back to running. Listen to his why and how he made a successful return to running races.
Topics Covered:
- Listen to what led Barry to burnout from running races
- Hear about his “why” and what led him to train again
- Learn what are things to consider as you start / resume as you get older

Barry Karch
Barry became an avid runner as he approached his 40s. He participated in as many as 20 races a year, ranging from 1 mile to marathons and everything in between. He qualified for and ran the Boston Marathon. After 5 years of intense training and running, he got burned out. He stopped racing for 20 years. The bad news was that he kept eating like he was running marathons. Finally, when he reached his 60s, he got the determination to do something about the weight. He changed his diet and the weight came off - all 35 pounds - and, as a side effect, an unexpected thing happened. He started to enjoy running again - really enjoy it. Much more than when he was younger. He has begun racing again with great results and feels rejuvenated - like he found a part of himself that was missing for 20 years.

In 2002, Bob decided to divide his energies in two areas. Professionally, he began consulting to other startups in the Internet Infrastructure market by helping coach a couple of entrepreneurs thru the process of growing a technology business. The second area was running where Bob became a part time volunteer assistant cross country and track coach to the local high school team and was able to run with the team.
In 2009, those two sides came together along with meeting Stephen Sigwart and RunSignup became a reality in January 2010 when Stephen joined Bob full time to begin working building a technology platform for endurance events.
