This week on the HappyCast, we keep things simple and ramble on about all things trail running with our debut of “HappyChat”.
In the first segment, Stephanie details her amazing and nerve wracking time at the rugged and remote LOViT 100 in Arkansas. She spent her weekend supporting previous guest and manliest runner in the country, Will Bryant. She describes a harrowing scenario where they both got lost with just four miles left to go. What would YOU do in a situation similar to theirs?
In the second segment, the three hosts discuss the use of commonly heard phrases throughout ultrarunning, and the psychology of how runners perceive positive statements during their races in times of emotional lows. Do you enjoy it when others constantly try to build you up when you’re feeling down? Why is it that we can sometimes have a negative reaction to positivity coming from a good place? Do you disagree with Andrew thinking “you looked strong every time I saw you” is overused? What are some phrases and statements you don’t enjoy or DO enjoy hearing out on a run? A divisive segment for sure, but some strong arguments from both sides.
And finally, we shoutout three individuals who participated in the end of year nominees. We read off nominations given by Kathleen Hanley (Tyler Hurst) , Lee Ann (Shashi), and Simon Gueard (Nora). We will be reading off more nominations at the end of the episodes from here on out. Some really amazing stories out there that the community has sent in.
