Brad was nice enough to sit down and talk with me about a wide range of topics.

We talked about Running, Injuries, Recovery, Strength Training, Treatments, Training methods, Goals, Races, Speed vs Easy runs, Long runs, Ultra Training, Backyards, Fueling, Gels, Precision Fuel (looking for a sponsor!), The mental aspect of running, Running gear, watches, VO2 max, HR, HRV, Running Coaching. A callous mind.

What is your identity? Are you tied to one identity, like being a RUNNER? It's important to have something like running or biking or a passion but maybe you shouldn't have something so "risky" be your entire IDENTITY...It was a great conversation.
