Canyon Woodward, from Franklin, NC is just set a 5ish hour PR in the 100 mile distance at Javelina 100 a few weeks ago, taking 3rd place overall.  Finishing just minutes behind his coach, David Roche, and at the awards ceremony was surprised with his Golden Ticket. Find out all the scoop on where the name Canyon comes from, and their crewing strategies to make such a huge improvement!  Enjoy.

Stella Springer is a strong trail and ultra runner from So Cal and happens to be pretty good at the timed track and road races as well.  Haha.  She's coming off a big PR of 146 miles in the 24 hour world championships in Albi, France.  What makes this even more remarkable is, she was in France as an alternate for team USA and competing in the open division, but when Camille pulled out at the last minute, eye roll inserted here, Stella was added to the team with very little notice.  The added pressure could hinder some people's performances, but it seems like it raised her to a higher level.  She beat her previous PR by 4+ miles and was 2nd best among the USA team scorers.  She has run over 50 ultras and won more than 15.  Fun fact.  She started running at age 45.  Enjoy her story.

I've been trying to connect with Manuela Vilaseca since before the Triple Crown started this year, but when Moab 240 was over and she was crowned the champ and new record holder, it seemed like it was obviously time.  The 6 hour time difference took some planning, but we made it happen and I am so glad we did.  Enjoy!

Andrea Moore is just a human positivity wrecking ball!  She crushes big goals with people power!  She is the most passionate and enthusiastic person about the sport and community of ultrarunning that I have ever had the privilege to interview.  Enjoy!

The Hoot'n Bulldog Track Ultra - November 14, 2025

Hey friends.  This is starting to feel a little self-serving and cheesy.  I will probably not do another episode until I can line up an awesome guest to give some tips on dealing with the issues I have been facing.  I'm gonna try and line up Tonya to discuss aches and pains and weakness identification, Amy for mindset, and hopefully a veteran at 100 mile training for overall experience lessons.

My Journey to Festivus is moving along better now.  More than double the miles, strength training, and work success.  Feeling much better even though I had some low points.

September is recovery month and who better to chat with about that than Russ Hartzell and Emily Quintanilla.  They are Race Directors and ambassadors for Sombrero Running Events and they (as well as the orgabization founded by Mike Martinez) are shining examples of what long term recovery should look like... love, service, and community.  Enjoy and go support their races!

Join me for a personal journal of the highs and lows of 100 miler training with someone who is 60 years old and not in 100 miler shape.  Who am I kidding, I'm not even in half marathon shape, but I am mentally strong, believe in commitment and hard work, and relentless forward progress, so let's see what happens.  Regular interviews will still be coming.  I was considering doing a video blog of my journey, but let's face it.  I have a face for audio.  Peace and love my friends!
