Kevin takes Life22 Studio on the road for the 2026 GOACC Corporate Challenge 5K — raw, sweaty, and full of local energy!

This on-location episode captures the pre-race vibes, crowd cheers, race-day banter, and post-run moments as Kevin runs for the City of Olean. You’ll hear everything from pack adjustments and old race memories to finish-line shoutouts, local runners, and that classic post-race relief.

It’s not polished studio talk — it’s real community, local pride, and the fun (and pain) of showing up for events like this in Olean/Western New York.

Great listen if you love grassroots local content, fitness motivation, or just want to feel the energy of a hometown 5K.
