How can we learn the fundamentals to business in just a semester? In this inspiring talk, business and grit teacher Andrew Johnston reveals the how and why of marathoning to learn what it takes to go the distance.
Andrew Johnston is a member of the business faculty at Red Rocks Community
College and shares a simple, yet powerful approach to helping students stay in school and acquire the life skills to succeed in the business world. His background in business, athletics and academia enable him to bring a unique and personal perspective to the classroom. He has competed in numerous
marathons and ultra-marathons, including the Chase the Moon 12-Hour Endurance Run, the Leadville Marathon, the Leadville Silver Rush 50 Run, and a recent attempt at the Leadville 100 Trail Run.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

What an effective way to teach and apply business concepts with students and keep them motivated! Wish you were still teaching this course so my son could take it but I will be encouraging him to run a marathon and support him all the way as I couldn't agree more in the valuable lessons learned from this to teach all those life skills!

Yes, your life doesn't have to be based on chance; life can be a choice. It's how you shape your life that matters. As Oscar Wilde would put it, "To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all."

OMG I absolutely love this!!!!! I’m looking to grow my small business and I also just started the second week of training for my 15th marathon……I guess over the years I’ve sort of forgotten “if I can run a marathon I can do anything” so glad I got that reminder from this video!!!

As much as I love running (I do), I wouldn't recommend anyone "to set scary goals" week after week... that's a recipe for disaster - shin splints, stress fractures, etc... Same thing with going from "out of shape" to "complete a marathon in 26 weeks"... Take it easy. Enjoy your training sessions. Plan resting weeks with half the distance to ensure your body adapts and builds strength up. There is no rush! The marathon will be equally satisfying to complete if you training safely for 40 weeks instead of 26.

Hal Higgins has an 18 week training plan for Novice Runners, I assume as a runner you know who that is. He is not telling people to Qualify for Boston, He is saying just complete one. I feel like you missed the entire point.
@gretchenross4033
@gretchenross4033 6 лет назад
Higdon's plan assumes a bit of a running base just to start. You have to be able to run a 6 mile long run the first week. The point of this message is, in part, to set smaller, manageable goals that seem difficult, and then meet them.
@randyrhoads4737
@randyrhoads4737 5 лет назад
You missed the point. It's about business and perseverence. It's about changing negative habits and instilling good ones. The running of a marathon is just a tangible example that consistency, dilligence, and resilience in small steps each day can achieve massive results in the future.

Love it! only that Marathon is not good for your heart. A physical discipline is important, especially if it is too some extent mindful.
@leomoe433
@leomoe433 6 лет назад
Eylon Mogilner You are wrong and right at the same time. You are wrong because humans survived for hundreds of thousands of years by being the best long distance runners on the African savanna, approximately running from 4 to 8 hours per hunt. You are right because many of us have done so little training that a marathon is just too far, especially without training.
@emogilner9
@emogilner9 6 лет назад
8 hours NON-stop? doesn't sound like an African mentality. They knew to listen to a pounding heart and let it rest for a short while. for sure.
@leomoe433
@leomoe433 6 лет назад
Not sure what your argument is. Of course Africans knew you couldn’t sprint for 8 hours straight, but more or less continuous running for many hours is still very natural for humans. (Running not sprinting). Search BBC endurance hunt or read the book born to run for further information

@crawdadyyt
@crawdadyyt 6 лет назад
I was thinking the same thing, but at least for me, realized that this was just an excuse. There are many marathon training programs and groups surrounding them that offer much of the structure a class would offer. A search of "marathon training group" pulls up examples in most cities. There are also the "couch to 5k" and "couch to half marathon" programs. There, in one short typing session, I have just destroyed all of my reasons for not running a marathon. YMMV.

Bro, I am a runner, running everything from 5Ks to 50Ks and I just like running. Of course you need grit now and then but the joy of running is much more important for long-term success
@martycoleman4544
@martycoleman4544 6 лет назад
He's talking about people who are not runners training for a marathon. That is a very hard thing to do and will involved quite a lot of pain, soreness and fatigue. Some of them will learn to love running, but all of them will feel the torture of that schedule at that moment in their running journey.
@codyl5986
@codyl5986 6 лет назад
I think this may only work for those who can't run a mile. There are a ton of people out there who can run marathons in their sleep back to back days. You want to learn patience and grit? Try a 100 mile ultramarathon.
@leomoe433
@leomoe433 6 лет назад
Cody L I am on the way to becoming one of those and I can tell you that there are really few who can do a marathon a day for long.

Everyone has it in them to run a marathon. If you can run a 5K you can run a 10K and if you can run a 10K you can run a half and if you can run a half you can run a full.

Good message, obnoxious proselytising attack
@plankytronixx
@plankytronixx 6 лет назад
Attack? I'd place it more between strong-opinion and attack. Proselytising yes, but in his defence, he was trying to make the message simple and fit in to a 12 minute TED talk. Perhaps with a 30 minute slot - instead of saying "run a marathon" - he'd have said "try something tough that you've never done before, that's hard, that you have to set goals for, that will have difficulties and that you can complete in say, 6 months. Maybe you'd choose to complete a marathon, a triathlon, maybe you'd choose to help out at a homeless shelter, maybe you'd ............". Can you imagine the title of the talk?
