235 - Finish What You Started
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of awarding finishers medals for incomplete marathon distances and emphasizes the importance of finishing what you start.
Should you get a reward for something you didn't do? That is the question this week and the debate in running world. Last weekend the L.A. Marathon made a controversial decision to award finishers medals to anyone that completed 18.2 miles of the 26.2 marathon, and we have to wonder: what kind of message is this sending? You should know by now that we believe in not only finishing what you started, but that failing is ok, too - it's part of the process and you can learn from it.
