Race week is here! In some ways I feel like I did my rookie year… mostly because I just had to wait on @DaleJr who showed up 10 minutes late to his own podcast.

Congrats to my friend @dalejr for getting into the @NASCARHall. It’s always cool to see the older generation of drivers that I pulled for growing up get the nod.

After running my first 5k 10 years ago I never dreamed I would ever run a world major marathon, much less all 6! It's been an incredible journey. Huge thanks to my family for supporting me and thanks for @AbbottNews for help making it happen.

Pumped to have @McDonalds back on the car! The last time was 1998, driving for Bill Elliott at Dover in my first ever Cup start.
In 1998, @mattkenseth made his first @NASCAR Cup Series start in a @McDonalds branded vehicle 🍟
Tomorrow night, Kenseth will sport the famous red & yellow colors once again.
