When Anne Champagne crossed the finish line at the Spartan Stoneham Ultra Beast she made history. Not only did Champagne win the race for women she beat all the men by over 45 minutes. I checked with Spartan HQ to confirm my suspicion that Anne was the first woman in the race company history to outright win an Ultra Beast. Spartan confirmed that she was the first women to ever accomplish this feat and that only one other time in the companies history had a woman outright won a Spartan of any distance but that race was not an Ultra Beast according to Spartan HQ.  Champagne joins the podcast to talk about the race, how she feels making Spartan history, and a little bit about her life, training and more. Champagne joined me via a Skype call from her home in Quebec, Canada to talk about it all just days after she won the race. Champagne has been an obstacle course racer for years and frequently finds herself on podiums in both Canada and the United States.

#142 - Jordan Lacenski - SheWolf Collective

Alissa LaChance is a 29-year-old female who grew up in the mountains in Whitefish, Montana. After starting to garden at the age of 16 she found her passion in the soil. After years of experience in farming, she found her true passion, COMPOST!  That passion led her to co-found Dirt Rich Compost in 2015. That's when she realized compost, soil biology, and food waste reduction was the direction she was being called towards instead of starting my own vegetable farm. She has a degree in Environmental Studies and Sustainable Ag from the University of Montana with continuing education through Soil Food Web Inc. Alissa has learned staying engaged in an active lifestyle of mountaineering in Glacier National Park and rock climbing in the local area is necessary for keeping her soul fueled so she can keep give back to our community's soils and recycling systems.

#139 - Courtney Carver Talking About Being More With Less and Simple Simplicity

Alicia Baker moved to Utah partially because of her love of the outdoors. She knew when she started adventuring into the mountains she wanted a four-legged friend to go with her. By fate and chance, she was connected with a golden retriever she named Charlie. The two have been adventure buddies since the day she brought him home.   Alicia created the website GirlonaHike.com to showcase places around Utah that are not only dog-friendly hikes but also off-leash dog-friendly hikes. Her website is a valued resource by many dog-loving adventurers, myself included. Every time I look for a new place to bring our dogs, Alicia's website pops up as a resource. I asked Alicia to come on and talk about creating the website, adventuring with your dog, backpacking with your dog, and more. Basically, we geek out about our dogs during this conversation and talk about why some places she has chosen not to write about on her site. This and more on this week's episode.    Find Girl on a Hike Website: http://www.girlonahike.com Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/girlonahike Twitter: https://twitter.com/girlonahike   One on One Coaching:  Do you want to weave together your inner passions in sport and life and have them reflected in your outer world?
