There were some very specific updates that we wanted to work on. And the goal was to take this from really good to great. The overriding theme is impact. What does significance really mean? The character traits that I want to be known for, that I wanted this book to be about. Things like vision, having a purpose for one's life. Things like, how do I plan my time more effectively?

How do I have boundaries? Things like, how do I reframe beliefs? These are truths that bring my mind back to center. Stuff that people can use not just in the boardroom, but things they can use when they go home with their own children. or when they have their own routines or their own quiet time where they're wrestling with their thoughts.

Welcome back to the Action Catalyst. Today, we are joined by Ron Alford, a senior partner, VP of a free executive coach and speaker at Southwestern Consulting. It's awesome to have you back on the podcast. You've been on this before. I am excited to formally interview you because you're trapped and I could ask you all the embarrassing things publicly that I've always wanted to ask.

120.08 - 144.151 Adam Outland

Thank you for having me, Adam. But in all honesty, one of the things that I've always respected about you and how you've lived your life outside of business is, I guess, first and foremost, how you run. My first experience learning about you, I remember, was when you talked about how you just run 35 miles one year for every year you've been alive because it was your 35th birthday.

144.625 - 155.731 Adam Outland

I was both amazed and thought you were a masochist at the same time. But then when you unpacked, you know, why you did it, what it meant to you, I thought that was really cool. But talk to me about when did running start for you?
