The Midnight Club is a podcast designed for those of us who spend several hours per week training for events, many times sacrificing time from friends, family and work, and are happy to just be out there, giving it their all, despite not reaching a podium finish, or sometimes not finishing at all. The origin of the name comes from the original structure of an Ironman race. Participants would start at 7 am and have 17 hours to complete the course by midnight. While I find inspiration by well accomplished endurance athletes, and try to follow their example, I also find motivation by the average athlete that has put in so much work just to participate in an event. I still would love to interview people who have and are accomplishing great things. However, I also want to talk to regular folks many of us have not heard of, and get their stories, too.

I'm joined by the star athlete, coach and mentor, Kyle Keyes of I-Ball Sports Complex in Woodinville, Washington. In this episode we discuss his journey through basketball, including playing for the University of Montana, the Seattle SuperSonics to the Harlem Globetrotters.
Kyle discusses key attributes any athlete needs to have, such as passion and interest being more important that talent alone. Talent can also only go so far and needs to be coupled with proper training. He also wants his athletes to think critically as a way to build confidence.
We also discuss potential NBA expansion and key factors to expose sports such as triathlons and ultramarathons to people who may not have access to participate.
