Running NYs 46 High Peaks and 2017 Boston Marathon Experience with Stephen Paddock

rickgloo's podcast

In this episode I sit down with my good friend Stephen Paddock. While Stephen and I have a few years between us age-wise, it's been an honor to watch him grow from a high school runner into adult life. He ALWAYS grabs life by the face and dives in head first. Stephen breaks a lot of the millennial stereotypes and gives me hope for the future generations. As an example, he refused to get a smart phone until his mom made him get one before college. Additionally Stephen has done a lot of work for local charities and has been contributing back to his community since his mid-teens.

This is not just a discussion about running or a runner, this is a discussion with a person who life is dominated and guided by lessons learned while running. Stephen brings a lot of resilience to real life that has been earned when he is pushing the limits of his mind and body on the trail or road. I hope you enjoy this conversation and are as inspired as I am by Stephen's unfolding story.
