For the second year in a row, the four by four by 48 challenge. You run 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 consecutive hours. And, you know, for me, I think it prepares me not only for life, but specifically business.
Good morning, Cadre crew. What a great day here. I'm just preparing for what's going to be another upcoming weekend. I'm going to be completing, for the second year in a row, the four by four by 48 challenge, which is you run 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 consecutive hours. It was interesting. I was at on my son's basketball last basketball last night, and I was talking to the coach, and I was telling him about this, and he said, why would you even do it? And so first I started explaining, like, the pain, the mental suffering, the grind, you know, everything that you go through with it.
And it's different than running, you know, just consecutively for a marathon. It's, you got to start and stop, start and stop. And you do it twelve consecutive times over two days, and you just really don't sleep. And, you know, you get pressed emotionally, mentally, physically, all the things. And, you know, for me, I think it prepares me not only for life, but specifically business. And here's why I say business. When you go and you start a business or you start a company, like, this is exactly what it's going to be.
It's starting ANd stopping. TheRe's concerns, theRe's worries, there's FruStRAtioN, emotionally, Mentally Stressed, not even to begin with, the financial side of the business as well. And so when you do a four x four x 48, it's kind of a microcosm of what you're going to deal with in a year. So for me, it just prepares me specifically for what I'm about to enter the rest of the year. And so Level setting me on a big weekend like this for the four x four x 48 just really gives me the springboard, believe it or not, for LEvel setting my year, for running the business and taking it to the next level.
So from a Commitment Perspective, I will finish. I will complete the 48 hours, h*** or high water. And it's the same thing with the business. It'll be the exact same thing, you know, we will finIsh. Will go. So I'm. I'm driving up to northern Minnesota today. So I just parked on the side of the road. I'm literally in the middle of nowhere. Literally in the middle of nowhere. And so I'm just kind of preparing for my next four mile leg of the run. So I'm going to just do 4 miles real quick, and then we'll do it again and again today just to get ready for it.
And so, again, you know, this isn't a physical thing. This isn't a mental thing. It's a life thing. It's preparing me to be prepared, ready to go for this business and take it to the next level. So I'm gonna get off and running. I hope that resonates. It's. It's not the physical challenge, but it's pushing your mind, and it's pushing your mental toughness. And ultimately, for me, it makes, you know, my job and my role in the business and makes me stronger and harder, and that's what it's all about.
So now I go, thanks, guys. Have a great.
