It's our 5th Anniversary this month. As part of the celebration, we will post flashback episodes all month long to celebrate and say thank you. If it were not for you, our Runcation Nation community, we would not have had this show for the last five years, had some of the most amazing experiences, and created lasting friendships in this community.

Next up is an excellent interview with a friend of the show, Bart Yasso!

RUN 

We share the first part of our talk with Bart Yasso this week.  He is known as the Mayor of Running and Chief Running Officer at Runner’s World until his retirement in 2017.  He talks about his running adventures, inspirations, and career with us.  Thank you, Bart, for your “wit, wisdom, and insights!”

EAT

This week, we got a bit of cooler weather here in Florida, so Dana made soup.  But not just any soup.  It is a vegetarian version of a soup we are fond of at The Columbia Restaurant.  The Spanish Bean Soup is one we had on the first episode of our show.  Theirs is delightful with Chorizo, Onion, Chickpeas, and warm spices.

We used our instant pot to create this version.  It makes approximately eight servings.

Here is our recipe:

Ingredients:

White Potatoes Diced - 6 potatoes

Water - 8 Cups

Dry Garbanzo Beans - 1-lb Package

White Onion Diced - 1 whole onion

Diced Carrots - 4 whole

Diced Celery - 4 stalks

Diced Jalapeño  - 1 Whole

Minced Garlic - 6 Cloves

Smoked Paprika - 2 Tablespoons

Liquid Aminos - 4 Tablespoons

Chopped Fresh Kale - Half of a 16-ounce bag

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except kale in the instant pot.  Set the instant pot on high and cook for one hour.  Release valve and depressurize instant pot.  Add kale.  Turn back on low for 20 minutes.  Then divide equally among eight bowls and enjoy.  Or divide among containers to store for the week for lunch or dinner.
