Kicking Off the Adventure: Inside My 300K Tour de los Tejas - Part 1

Embark on an epic adventure with me, Richard Gleave, as we relive the 2021 Tour de los Tejas—an ultra marathon like no other. Covering 186 miles around Texas with the Crazy Eight, we faced the raw beauty of the open road, learning the hard way what it means to push our limits.  This episode captures every grueling detail and intimate moment of camaraderie, from the State Capitol in Austin to the surprising comforts of a Dairy Queen in Flatonia, TX.There's something about the relentless Texas terrain that brings out the best, and sometimes the hardest, lessons in life. This episode is no exception. Listen to the stories of how the simplest acts of walking and running turned into a profound journey, punctuated by the kindness of strangers and a meal that came to symbolize far more than a quick bite. It's a run that's as much about the inner self as it is about the miles under our feet, and I can't wait to share with you how we navigated the mental mazes and physical obstacles we encountered.As the temperatures dropped, so did our comfort levels, but not our spirits. Hear how a ladies' poncho and oversized ski gloves from a gas station became my unlikely armor against the cold. I'll also share the raw emotion of missing out on a hot meal after an exhausting leg of the run and how the anticipation of the next day's challenges kept us going.  On this podcast, we're not just about enduring—we're about connecting. So join the conversation on our social media platforms, and let's keep the stories of resilience and perseverance alive together.Support the showChoose to Endure:Email:[email protected]:https://www.choosetoendure.com/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@ChoosetoEndureInstagram:https://instagram.com/choose_to_endure?utm_source=qr Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552757049526
