episode 18: Change of Plans


We started “3 Dudes on Ultra Mission” a year ago. Some of the action items were:
-Create a social network presence
-Share our running experience with like-minded people
-Build traffic and a platform for possible business ideas.
-Make it entertaining

For “make it entertaining”, I remember telling the other 2 dudes: …we will run a lot but we are not going to be one of those boring health and fitness freaks…besides running, we can also film ourselves getting drunk at bars, having a smoke before a race…

Funny how things turned out.

Our presence and traffic aren’t significant, and no business ideas materialized. I’m on my way to becoming a health freak, one dude go for weeks without drinking, and another dude is fully immersed with his new job.

The goal of running an ultramarathon hasn’t changed, but how we will get there certainly wasn’t what I had expected. It worked out just fine though.

Last week we signed up and paid for an ultra-marathon in Taidong, Taiwan on March 16. We have decided to save the Annapurna 100 for another time. Just doesn't make sense logistically and financially for us right now.

So it’s official!! 2 months exactly from Game Day.
