The one and only Cole Sprout returns to the podcast. Cole is a junior at Stanford University, where he has slowly cemented himself as one of the top runners in the NCAA. This past indoor season, Cole ran 3:56 in the Mile, 7:43 in the 3k, and 13:24 in the 5k. Just a few weeks ago, Cole ran 28:30 in the 10k to open up his outdoor campaign. Cole is also a multi-time All-American both on the track and the grass. 

Cole and I get incredibly deep in this episode and discuss a plethora of topics surrounding philosophy that relate to running such as trusting in God's plan, chasing quick fixes, is there a destination?, enjoying the ordinary moment, finding meaning in suffering, and more. We also go through Cole's recent racing and ambitions for the rest of the season!

I hope you will all tune into this episode as I know it will positively impact you, and certainly make you think deeper on questions surrounding your life and sport. I know you'll walk away from today's conversation a better version of yourself, I can certainly say that was the case for me.

So I hope you all enjoy today's podcast and find value from the subjects discussed! Feel free to drop a comment with your thoughts (:
