Fear and Running in Alaska

"I have been through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened." - Mark Twain
Emily and I hit the Final Frontier for our 10 year wedding anniversary, spending a week running in a mix of urban and remote wilderness. I recorded a podcast during the week, talking about the Zen approach to fear and a few other things.
Listen in to hear me broadcasting from a remote cabin, a suburban backyard, and an Anchorage restaurant. I reveal how to observe fear instead of becoming it, allowing yourself to live your life to the fullest.
Your links to more podcasts to teach you to deal better with fear are the following -
FEAR - By Zen Master Gil Fronsdal
Zen Garden - By Thich Nhat Hanh
No Ego, No Fear Part 1 and Part 2 by Robina Courtin
Being in Alaska, I go trail running through snow, almost collide with a moose, renew wedding vows next to a glacier, and spot a bear. Plenty of fear to go around, and there's no slowing down.
I also talk about two new pieces of gear that I'm using:
- The Nathan Triangle Pack allows you to carry a 22 oz. water bottle on your waist. I really like it. I can go anywhere I want for two hours and not worry about fueling.
- SLS sent me some compression socks and they work! This was probably the biggest run mileage week of my life (training-wise) and I finished it out with 12 miles wearing these and my legs felt great!
- I am doing a lot of night running to avoid the Texas heat, and the
is my new best friend. It's so bright, I think it is actually making car drivers angry. I know that every driver is seeing me, and that's what I'm looking for.
There's also a voicemail at the end of the show from a guy who's making his own tri podcast out of Georgia. I checked it out and it's pretty cool! Here's the link.

Bret - going to be in Houston Wednesday afternoon to Sunday morning, not sure exactly your location, but was thinking about doing a meet n greet run somewhere and tri to do a little podcasting? not sure it will work out but thought I'd throw it out.
Ok, will you be able to come up to College Station? It's about 1.5 hours from Houston.
