BEST LIFE ADVICE (TRE)

Wednesday, 4:30PM outside the main entrance at TRE.

Co-hosts Brogan Graham (Minneapolis) and Melvin Echard Jr. (San Antonio) are gathering humans around a milk crate one more time. That’s right folks, the rogue event just outside the main entrance at TRE (The Running Event) is back for its final run.

And no, this isn’t a shakeout. It’s a chance to listen, learn, and share life experiences. This year’s theme is sharing (and borrowing) “Best Life Advice.” Sounds simple enough, right?

Come with an open mind and an interest in people. All are welcome, and everyone who attends will have their name added to the basket for a random draw. Last year, we just had enough time in our 59 minutes to get through every name, and we’re hoping to do it again.

Brogan, founder of Outward Agency, and Melvin, NCAA T&F champion, creator of Made Athlete, and local community leader, have shared nine years of friendship and industry events.

We’ll lovingly ask everyone to be ready to share in this format:

“Hi, my name is _______. The best life advice I’ve been given is __________. I’ve used it in my life (personally, professionally, or both) by ____________. Again, the best life advice I’ve been given is __________. Thank you."

The format keeps us brief, exact, and to the point. It’s sharp storytelling that travels well. After our 59-minute event, we hope everyone leaves ready to ask, listen, and share in at least one new, meaningful way—and to carry along the lessons from the people we hear from at TRE.

Between now and the event, take a little time to think about it: What’s the BEST LIFE ADVICE you’ve been given?

See you soon.
