The Best Interview Yet. (It's me)
from Free Outside · host Jeff Garmire
In this conversation, I talk about my approach to taking on new challenges and the importance of trying new things. I share my training methods for different seasons, like skate skiing in the winter and focusing on strength and sauna training in the spring. I also dive into my experience running the Cocodona 250, where I had some issues with my Achilles tendon but pushed through to finish. For me, it's all about balance, adaptation, and finding enjoyment in the process of pursuing goals. I also discuss my experiences with injuries, my podcast, and my recent adventures on the Montana Meltdown and the Tahoe Rim Trail. I touch on the importance of doing PT exercises, the mindset that comes with fastpacking, and the value of embracing challenges and taking risks. My storytelling style, with its candid and humorous approach, keeps things engaging and relatable throughout the conversation.
