You already know you're capable of more. So why do you keep getting in your own way? Getting After It is the podcast for people who are done with excuses, done playing it safe, and ready to close the gap between who they are and who they know they can be. Hosted by ultra trail runner, entrepreneur, and accountability obsessive Brett Rossell, this show doesn't hand you motivation. It hands you a mirror. Every episode cuts into the real reasons people self-sabotage, avoid discomfort, and settle for less than they're built for. Through raw personal stories, Stoic philosophy made practical, and honest conversations with others who've done hard things. You'll walk away with the mindset and tools to actually prove what you're made of. If you're building a career, a family, fitness, or a life worth being proud of; this is the show that holds you accountable to all of it. New episodes every week. Subscribe and keep Getting

Getting After It
People love to say "you just wait." You just wait until the baby comes. You just wait until the honeymoon phase is over. You just wait until you have no time, no sleep, and no ambition left. Since Winston was born six...
Episode #209
Welcome to the first episode of Running on Empty , a new series on Getting After It with my good friends Brayden Galbraith and Jace Skidmore. We're three dads with full-time jobs, busy schedules, and an obsession with...
Episode #208
Brayden came back on the podcast after finishing one of the hardest races in the country: the Leadville Trail 100. What makes his story crazy is that he wasn't expecting to get into Leadville this year. He entered the...
Episode #207
I believe in hard work. This podcast is called Getting After It, after all. But the older I get, the more I realize that hard work by itself isn't enough. In this episode, I break down a few lessons from Arnold...
Episode #206
My wife Ally is back on the podcast, and this episode felt a little different. We’re only a few weeks away from becoming parents for the first time. As excited as we are, we’ve been thinking a lot about what life will...
Episode #205
Nine years ago, my mom started a business with an idea and a willingness to try. This year, she closed the doors and we talk about all the lessons learned. In this episode, we talk about what it was like to build Snug...
Episode #204
Jace Skidmore ran a 4:05 marathon. Years later he ran a 2:53. I wanted to know what actually changed in between, so I sat him down and asked. Jace is one of the best follows I have in the running space, and today he...
Episode #203
In this episode, I talk about something I’ve been learning the hard way: you can’t rush adaptation. Whether it’s health, running, work, podcasting, or becoming a father, some things just take time. You can show up. You...
Episode #202
In this episode, I talk about something I've been thinking about a lot lately: what excellence actually means. For a long time, I thought excellence looked the same every day. Wake up early. Train hard. Work harder...
Episode #201
Episode 201 feels like the beginning of a new season for Getting After It . After 200 episodes, I've been thinking a lot about what growth actually costs. We spend so much time talking about becoming stronger...
Episode #200
Episode 200. I started this show with one microphone, a laptop, and no real idea what I was doing. This one is harder to record than a race recap. My testosterone is back down to 136, and I feel it. Workouts that used...
Episode #199
Ally likes to do hard things in hard seasons. Which is why she competed in a Hyrox while being 26 weeks pregnant. She went in without a watch, without a time goal, and without a plan. Her only job was to finish. Running...
Episode #198
In this episode, I talk about the story of ultrarunner, firefighter, father, and author Andy Glaze. Andy's book, Smile, or You're Doing It Wrong , is about far more than running. It's a story of addiction, trauma...
Episode #197
Last week at Pattern Accelerate, I snuck into a talk from James Lawrence because I wanted to hear what drives someone to complete 101 Ironmans in 101 days. I expected another motivational speech. Instead, I walked away...
Episode #196
"This is no time for ease and comfort. It is the time to dare and endure." Winston Churchill said that in January of 1940. I've been thinking about it for three days, and it isn't about World War II for me. It's about a...
Episode #195
Most people think discipline is about pain tolerance. I don't think that's entirely true anymore. You don't quit the things you want because they hurt. You quit because they got boring. After my last ultra in October, I...
Episode #194
Most people treat fear like a stop sign. They call it wisdom. They call it patience. It's usually neither. Fear shows up before everything worth doing. The race you've been avoiding, the conversation you keep...
Episode #193
I set out to run a half marathon this weekend. I made it ten miles. My leg told me to stop. And for once, I listened. That didn’t sit well with me. I’m doing everything right right now. I’m running my miles. I’m...
Episode #192
I trained for a sub-three marathon, hit it, and spent the next several weeks barely able to walk without my hips locking up. I did everything right. Trained hard, stayed consistent, crossed the finish line. My body...
Episode #191
Most people quit their habits right before they start working. I recorded this episode after watching a close friend pull himself out of a year of isolation. He started with small inputs. A walk outside. A phone call. A...
