Posted @withregram • @mickeygraglia Before moving forward with any race recap posts I must address this situation: Apparently after my last post yesterday and the release of @billyyang video interview a lot of comments, drama and negativity poured on social media taking either mine or @davidgoggins side. * To my great surprise David called me this morning and we got the chance to talk on the phone. I must say it was a very pleasant conversation where we addressed the controversy and cleared the air between us. * I have incredible respect for the man, we just come from 2 completely different if not opposite lines of thoughts, approaches and philosophies. When I mentioned our exchange in both posts and interviews it was just to mention a pivotal part of my race but I want to point out that I never insulted him or accused him of anything wrong. I simply stated what happened and that his reaction, at that specific point in the race, effected me quite a bit. My interpretation of his words thew me off and, in ways, upset me. What he meant, in his own ways, was to push me harder and to "go for it" as he felt I was holding back. That's as simple as that. * Either way people are going to interpret this, there are absolutely no hard feelings as we both share a great deal of respect for each other and it was a privilege to talk it out with him direclty and personally. * Thankful for all the support of our community but know there are no foes here... just 2 different mindsets pushing their boundaries and exploring our own potential in 2 very different ways. And that, is pretty much it! #keepitpositive #stayinspired * @destinationtrailraces ❤ 📸 @howiesternphoto 🙏 #moab240 #ultra #run #running #trailrunning #moab #utah #mountains #desert #extreme #nature #love #transperfect #lasportiva #wearemountainrunners #foryourmountain #fieldworkbrewing #OLive #vespapower #shplus #therealsaltstick #ledlenser #nwcurve #runlovers #runfree #runtheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/CGdfYjcHZNC/?igshid=1scdbhtibpk7y
