Join me as I sit down with Nicholas Coleman, a pioneering force in podcasting and a revered figure in the trail running community, as he shares his story of resilience and determination in the face of a cancer diagnosis. Nick's journey with Hodgkin's lymphoma is not just about facing personal battles—it's about embracing life with humor and optimism, even when the path ahead seems daunting.

We explore the mental health benefits of staying active and being present outdoors, offering insights that are as inspiring as they are practical. From the lessons learned through personal milestones to the joy of connecting with community members, this episode celebrates the power of resilience, personal growth, and the simple yet profound joy of movement.

As we explore the world of ultra and sub-ultra racing, Nick brings his expertise as a trail runner and cross-country coach to the forefront, discussing unique challenges and the dedication required to succeed in such demanding races. His story is both a testament to the power of perseverance and a celebration of the spirit of adventure that fuels the running community.
