Laurie candidly discusses her diagnosis of Trigeminal Neuralgia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigeminal_neuralgia] and how it completely sidelined her from obstacle racing, podcasting and life in general. She shares how depression set in and how she began to take back her life. It’s a long journey that is nowhere near over, but at least now she is walking in the right direction. What’s the deal with LoziLu? How to deal with your credit card company when a race cancels. * Try to contact the race for a refund. * Keep detailed records of each time you tried to contact them. * Usually need to report within 30 days of the charge posting to your statement and needs to be disputed within 120 days rule for credit card transactions.

With Ghirardelli chocolate!!!! They put the race on at one of the bigger nature parks in Charlotte and it was a family run through the woods. There was probably about 200 people there, so a very small race but it was great. We got a bag of delicious chocolate after the race too. Thanks for the podcast. I love listening and my 11 year old daughter gets pumped up as well, she can’t wait until she gets old enough to do the big ones Sheila Shepard and daughter Elyssa Video of the Week httpv://youtu.be/Apildpe0VBw
