This week, we welcome back Dyana Carmella for a deep dive into outdoor adventure and creativity.

Dyana reflects on her adventure on the Colorado Trail and a grueling trek through the Grand Tetons, while sharing an exclusive look at her journey adapting her book, A Walk Thru Neverland, into a screenplay.

We also explore the influence of the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, discussing how its themes of self-discovery through daydreams and adventure mirror the courage it takes to step into the unknown and push your personal limits.

This is truly one of my favorite episodes!!! Hope you all enjoy!!

In this episode, Phil Pinti returns to and shares what he learned through a tough DNF at the Arizona Monster 300, the peace found on our paddleboard trip through Iowa, and how adventure can be found through urban running and tacos at the Taco Bell 50K!!

As we start 2026 and look back on 2025 we must ask ourselves three questions:

Why take on big scary goals even when faced with failure?

What do we learn from embracing the journey?

And of course....How many tacos can I eat while running 31 miles?

This is an awesome episode and I hope you enjoy Phil's perspective on all three events!!!

We are welcoming in the new year with Christine O'Hara Ryan's EPIC tale of finishing the hardest Moab 240 with only 15 minutes to spare!!

Last October, Christine ran for five days through the most rain the deserts in Moab, Utah has had in 150 years. Through this journey she learned lessons about herself and about the drive she has to accomplish her dreams.

Her stories are captivating and inspiring!! I truly hope you love this episode and that it motivates you to chase your own big goals over the next year!!

This is a REPLAY of one of my favorite episodes from the 9 years of doing this podcast!

In this episode my two friends Travis Steffen and Brandon Swett hang out and we go through a varitey of categories to eventually determine which movie wins the award of "Travis Steffen's Ultimate Sports Movie".

Over the years, I think I've listened to this nonsensical conversation more than any other episode of the show!

Enjoy!!
