Episode 12: Education, Consistency and Functional Fitness with Richard James III
This is the 2nd Episode in Season 2. In this episode, I talk with one of my Running/Fitness mentors, Richard James III! Listen as we talk about his adventures and accomplishments, and about how the Eagle Scouts are his foundation! Though Richard is someone I have known for quite some time, I learn a lot more during this conversation ("Ya Think Ya Know A Guy"). He is the second guest that has written a piece of literature and his excitement for education is evident when we speak about it! This Episode is packed with great stories about amazing life experiences and advice about Functional Fitness, from Running with the Olympic Torch to getting lost on trails runs, this episode has it all! Lastly, Richard's advice is great for everyone regardless of athletics abilities, occupation and age! This is a must-listen!
