Thanks so much for visiting my site! My name is Brandon Wood and I am an opera singer living and trying to make it in New York City.

Who: This contest is open to anyone and everyone in the U.S. and Canada (also APO)! Tell your friends!
What: Stuffitts! I have spoken about these simple yet awesome shoe savers in the past. Click here to read more about them. I cannot say enough how great they are!
When: Starting NOW! This is an ongoing contest that will be every month, or until every person on the planet has nice, fresh smelling shoes!
Why: Because Stuffitts are awesome! The folks at Stuffitts are being SUPER generous and I also want to give you guys something that I think is a great addition to any athletes arsenal!
How: On the last podcast episode post of each month (example: Episode 99 on June 28 HERE) entrants should leave a comment (however long you'd like). On the following week's show (the first show of each month) I will draw, by random number generator, one winner! That's it!
Good luck!
Congrats on the PR and taking home some hardware. You’ve come a long way. Keep it up!
Wow, congrats on the speedy time! You’re now officially faster than I have ever been.
By the way, I was sore on Monday and Tuesday, but pretty well recovered by Wednesday and started working out again on Friday. I don’t want to do what I did last year and slack off to the point where I lose a lot of fitness – I’m looking forward to working in more cycling and swimming during the colder weather.
Congrats on your awesome race, Brandon! A 4 minute PR? That’s awesome! It is truly a testament to how marathon training can improve your short game as well.
I had a similar experience running my own Turkey Trot 5 miler this past weekend. I ran an unexpectedly fast race, placing 5th in my AG with a 30:17 (a course PR for me), even though I thought my legs were shot after PR’ing in the Philly half the previous weekend.
Anyway, congrats also to your wife and extended family who ran. It’s always nice to be able to share the roads with loved ones and run a race together before sitting down for the big turkey dinner!
Nice work out there. All the best to you, Brandon. Take care!
Congrats to all of you on your great race times!
And thanks for another great podcast episode!
