Swampfest was great to me. Not only was the event insane but I was able to spend time with seven different guests that were all amazing! Mark Mulville is the 2nd podcast so far. Keep an ear out for five more! I had a gut feeling about Mark Mulville and what he would bring to the podcast for all of you listeners out there. We didn't just cover all of his amazing video parts from Anthem II to Who Brought The Dicks or his long term sponsor @profile_racing We covered some real life issues of anxiety and depression that is pretty familiar to so many, myself included. We also talked quite a bit about the Casselberry, Pittsburgh, Connecticut and lots of places in between that helped shape who he is today as a rider and a man. Pretty crazy that Mark grew up a couple towns away from me in Connecticut, as a young pre-teen. Mark is also a pretty amazing photographer that loves to focus on the wildlife of Florida, especially gators! I hope you all enjoy this listen, it was beyond my expectations and I am so grateful Mark made the time for our conversation and a couple laps at his trails! 

Thank you Mark!

Episode 140 - Mark Mulville

Another step out of the box for The BMX In Our Blood, an interview with John Badessa based on his book, Fit2besick. John is a former BMX racer and World Champion from Rhode Island that had the mindset of a champion. As you will learn through the podcast, champions suffer too. When John faced unexplained exercise fatigue after years of endurance sports he thought the answer and solution to the problem would be a much easier fix then it was. Stick with it to the end and you will learn about how to be your own health advocate and think trust your gut. You can find John's book on Amazon by searching Fit2besick.  

Once again, thank you to Powers Bike Shop for continuing to sponsor the show. Although I am grateful for the Powers sponsorship it doesn't cover the expenses. Please consider donating to the podcast through PayPal at josephPdoherty@hotmail.com if you like what you hear and I'll do my best to keep it going!

Also, as you will hear in the intro there is a GoFundMe for the funeral expenses for Dave Pawson who unfortunately passed this weekend. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers. You can find his GoFundMe by searching for "Funeral Costs For David Pawson aka BMX Legend". Still quite a shock for the BMX community that we are all a part of. 

That's it for this week, enjoy it and live every day with no reservations!
