187. I'm a New York City Marathon Race Announcer!

"I want to know that every person that crosses that finish line is celebrated. I don't care what the time on the clock says. I want everyone's hard work and dreams to be celebrated."

Last Sunday, I became an official TCS New York City Marathon finish line announcer. I always said my dream was to "stand at a finish line and cheer for all the runners." And I got to do that on the world's largest stage. I need about a month to sit and process the magic of this past week. What I got to do. The opportunities. The people I met. The conversations I had. The finishes and emotions I witnessed. The tears. The victories. The arms up in the air, in moments of pure awe and celebration. The chills I got, over and over. On this episode, I attempt to recap it all.
