概要

Why Not You with John O'Brien What if the only thing standing between you and doing something extraordinary… is the decision to start? Do hard things. Turning motivational interviews into personal action

Why Not You with John OBrien is a podcast that turns curiosity into courage. Each episode features genuine, down‑to‑earth people who have achieved remarkable things—Olympic gold medalists, world champions, Guinness World Record holders, ultra‑distance race winners, Leadville Trail 100 finishers, backyard ultra champions, and founders of successful businesses.

Conversations with ordinary people who did something extraordinary — ultrarunners, Ironman finishers, rebuilders, and people who bet on themselves when it didn’t make sense. The question isn’t why them. It’s why not me.

The goal isn’t to impress you. It’s to challenge you to ask a powerful question:

Why not you?

    ust get me to that finish line. This is horrible. I'm dying.

    That's Steve Froeschle in the middle of the 2026 Hennepin 50K. He went out at 5:30 pace, leaving the door open to breaking three hours, and won it anyway in 3:06:00 to take first overall.

    My previous guest, Alyssa Farrell, was first woman and second overall in the same race in 3:33:16. This conversation picks up right there.

    Steve is from Davenport and owns Nonstop Race Management. In the full interview he talks about his 2:20:48 marathon PR and maybe lining up Chicago next year.

    Full conversation coming soon on Why not you with John OBrien. Alyssa's episode: rss.com/podcasts/taking-chances-why-not-you

    Pinned comment: Steve won the 2026 Hennepin 50K in 3:06:00, and Alyssa Farrell was first woman and second overall in 3:33:16. What should he run next: another ultra, or a shot at beating 2:20:48?

    Other hooks: "It was like 3:06 flat. I'll take it." / "I was way too excited. Got out way too fast." / "She finished second to him at Hennepin."

  • Six Leadville 100 finishers, all from the Quad Cities area. Which part hit you hardest: Hope Pass, the DNFs, or finishing?

    There's a crazy concentration of Leadville 100 finishers in the Quad Cities area.

    Six of them are in this cut: John DeDoncker (10 official finishes), John Byrne (5), Curt Johnston, Evan Kilstrom, Travis Swanson of Cambridge, Illinois, and me. I finished in 2016 in 28:42:08.

    From 2010 to 2026, 30 Iowans have finished the Leadville 100. 19 of them are from Davenport, Bettendorf, or Le Claire.

    You'll hear what pulled them to the race, the DNFs and Hope Pass, the finishes, and why they keep going. Full conversations are on Why not you with John OBrien.

  • My job is to fight a war. I never got to do that. "I didn't go to war. I still lost my buddies." / "Your story is not over." / Operation Warrior Fit was born in that conversation.

    If you or a veteran you know is in crisis, call or text 988 and press 1, or visit veteranscrisisline.net.

    Jonathan Milkovich was airborne infantry. His job, he says, was to fight a war. He never got to do that.

    He didn't deploy. But he still lost his buddies. He still blew out his knee, messed up his back and hit his head on every jump.

    About six or eight months before he got out, he lost one of his guys to mental health. Panic attacks and spirals followed. His wife stood by him, then told him she loved him, but if he kept going down that road it wasn't going to work out. Her answer was to get him back to running.

    Later, talking about how much race entries cost, they came up with Operation Warrior Fit. They pay race entries for veterans, first responders, active duty and National Guard, whether it's a 5K, an ultra, a triathlon or anything else that gets people moving.

    His message to every veteran and first responder: one really bad night doesn't define you. Your story is not over.

    This Veterans Day, listen to the full conversation on Why not you with John OBrien.
