1/ Cover stories continued.

#FounderPuzzles #Founders #startups

Here is the second frame that made it to the shortlist for the cover.

Yes I know its a sneaker, but what does it mean? What the story? Where is the connection?

2/ My first half marathon was an accident.

I wasn't planning on running it. I didn't even register for it.

When I went to sign up for the 10K I was running, I found that everyone I ran with with was doing the half.

So I said to myself, how bad could it be?

Bad idea.

3/ And so was my first startup, my first book and my first job with a bulge bracket investment bank in London.

All accidents. Every single one of them. Didn't mean for it to happen that way.

When I was done, never again, said I.

Shoot me if I do, said I.

4/ This frame is a closeup from my 2nd marathon.

How dumb can one possibly be?

After dying during the first, off I went and registered for the 2nd.

Correction. Organized the event together with fellow runners so that we could it all over again.

4 weeks later. Really?

5/ I am sure you saw these posters last year. That was us. I am in there somewhere. We were all over the place.

6/ I also have pictures from my third half this year.

Do you see a trend? Do you see a problem?

Some people just never learn.

Half Marathons. Startups. Books. Book covers.

Its all the same. They are gluttons for punishment.

That's the story. Purgatory, not the shoe.
