Episode 31 – Safety First

Kevin and Pete show mercy with this relatively short episode. Catching up on the week, Gomers chat, and a whole lotta safety talk. Face it, these guys are going to need every possible advantage they can get in the Grand Canyon. All that and the usual shenanigans on this week’s special ep.

Episode 25 – Actual Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim Prep Talk!

Kevin and Pete start with their usual weekly overviews and typical nonsense before actually discussing their Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim adventure. Who knew these guys could do some research and have a meaningful dialogue? OK, that’s overboard but we’ll take what we can get.

Episode 23 – Unpacking a DNF at the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge

Kevin and Pete are joined by Coach Hollyanne in this special episode.

Kevin kicks it off with a brief race recap and a summary of how his last couple of weeks have been. Hollyanne adds a couple of her thoughts, too. 

Then Pete tries to unpack all that happened in a disappointing DNF at the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge. If you are not up for a raw discussion of mental health and the struggles of weight, please be cautious. Pete shares a lot. If it helps someone besides him, it was well worth the highly uncomfortable discussion.

Coach Hollyanne has great insights throughout. All that and the usual shenanigans along the way!
