Run Disney Perfect Dopey participant Kevin Harrison answers all your questions about the Dopey Challenge - where to stay, how to train, where to dine, and out to get there - with four months to go before the big day.


Kevin Harrison hosts Do Hard Things Today, a podcast built around a simple, challenging idea: real change comes from the daily choices we often avoid. This isn't about theoretical advice; it's a direct conversation from within a growing community of people who are actively choosing the difficult path to better health. Each episode feels like a practical toolkit, focusing on actionable steps in fitness, nutrition, and overall wellness. You'll hear from Kevin and others about integrating discipline into the mundane-transforming the hard things into non-negotiable parts of a stronger, more controlled life. The core of this podcast is the understanding that sustainable results aren't found in shortcuts, but in the consistent, often uncomfortable work we do for ourselves. Tune in for honest discussions that cut through the noise of quick fixes, offering instead a mindset and methods designed to help you build lasting resilience. It’s for anyone who believes they’re meant for more and is ready to confront the daily hurdles that stand in the way. The Do Hard Things Today podcast serves as your regular dose of motivation and strategy, reinforcing that the journey to becoming your best self is paved with challenges worth embracing every single day.
