Showing Up Changes Everything

Some episodes don’t just entertain, they recalibrate how you think about training, life, and what’s still possible. Episode 42 of Beyond The Finish Line is one of those conversations.

Hosted by Joe Hardin, this episode features Jerrod Hardy, a lifelong learner, former MMA athlete, retired police officer, and now an endurance athlete training for his first 100-mile ultramarathon. What makes this episode special isn’t the résumé but the reminder that showing up matters more than being perfect.

Together, Joe and Jerrod dig into the endurance mindset: how self-imposed limits hold athletes back, why committing before doubt creeps in can change everything, and how presence is a skill worth training. They talk ultrarunning, reinvention, intentional listening, and what happens when you stop waiting to feel “ready.”

This episode is for everyday endurance athletes who are training for their next race, thinking about signing up for something big, or questioning whether it’s too late to start again. It’s honest, motivating, and deeply human.

If you’re looking for endurance motivation, mindset insights, and a reminder that your story is still unfolding, this episode delivers.

No podiums required. Just show up.
