Yes, we have an opinion on Backcountry.com's litigious trademark game, of course we do. But at least it's short and sweet. We're also dreaming of traveling to our national parks by train and talk about running at Kaiser Hills and places that are really really cold, like Livingston.

On this very special episode we're joined by Maria Dalzot, registered dietitian and mountain runner from Bellingham, Washington. She just recently returned from competing at the NACAC Mountain Running Championships in Tepatitlán, Mexico and ran OCC at UTMB this summer.
