“Regular dude” runs a marathon in all 50 states 🏃‍♂️ Sandia manager Don Gillich doesn’t claim to be a world-class runner. Still, his consistency and focus have helped him run 59 marathons, showing him he is capable of hard things. “The marathon is a tough distance. It will never be easy,” Don said. “But the hardest part is getting to the start line.” He brings the same determination to his work at the Labs, where he leads R&D teams to improve early warning systems to potential threats. Don hopes to inspire those around him and encourages others to pursue goals outside their comfort zones. “I always ask my team, ‘What’s the hard thing you can do next?’” Read more about Don’s next challenge: https://bit.ly/4vDnLRJ
