Episode 36 of the Nine Point Day Podcast features a laid-back, wide-ranging conversation with Scott Farr as we recap the most recent Highland Games season and talk through what stood out, what worked, and what the year looked like from an athlete’s perspective.

We cover highlights from the season, general thoughts on competing, travel, and the state of the Highland Games, then let the conversation wander—as it does—into completely unrelated territory, including ant colonies, random observations, and plenty of off-topic banter.

This episode is less about coaching or programming and more about reflecting on the season, telling stories, and enjoying the kind of conversation you only get when two people sit down with no script.

👇 Topics in This Episode:

• Recap of the most recent Highland Games season

• Competing, travel, and lessons from the year

• The current state of the sport

• Off-topic conversations and random tangents

• Ant colonies (for no real reason at all)
