My Dad Won the Pro Bowl

<p>This week on <em>Sunday Dinner</em>, we recap the two races I ran to close out the year: an unexpected road 10K in El Paso and the USATF Cross Country Championships. Along the way, my dad shares some parallel racing experiences, including the full story of the short-lived NFL Pro-Bowl road racing series that he and his friends single-handedly shut down after its inaugural year. We also dive into the context behind his only US Cross Country title in Portland—the same year I was born.</p><p>We close out the episode with a plea to add cross country to the Winter Olympics. I loved hearing these stories and hope you enjoy them too. </p><p><br></p><p>Contact us at hackersundaydinner@gmail.com</p><p><br></p><p>Music written and recorded by Tim Gibson</p>
