Episode 20 – Kevin Chooses an Event

Another good week for Kevin. He even chose his next event. What is it and what’s his plan? 

Pete had a decent week of training. He learned a ton during a long hike at Mount Hoy. Is it enough to get him through the next big hike and the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge? We’ll find out soon!

 All that and the usual shenanigans along the way!

Episode 19 – Sugar Badger Race Recap, Power Washing, and More!

Kevin had a good week and capped it off by washing his house. You know not everything went smoothly though.

Pete gives a recap of his Sugar Badger Half-Marathon. At least we think there is a recap in there between all the food talk.

All that and the usual shenanigans in this fun episode!

Episode 18 – A Fall, Nature, and Moonshine

Kevin kicks things off with a better week that ends with something not-so-pleasant. Pete has a few adventures in nature. And lots of talk of whiskey and moonshine. And, of course, the usual nonsense happens along the way.

Episode 17 – The Slackpacker Struggle

The title of episode 17 sounds like a hot new dance, but, alas, it is merely a true story. Kevin and Pete both take a ride on the struggle bus. They talk through it, and it seems they are already on a better path.  

The guys also discuss one of Pete’s favorite people, Bill Burke. Check out Bill’s adventures at eightsummits.com.

And, of course, the usual nonsense happens along the way.

Episode 16 – Hills, Rain, and a Top 100 Spectator

This episode is packed with entertainment. OK, it’s at least packed with something that resembles a moderately acceptable podcast.

Kevin and Pete talk about hill repeats, rain gear, and what it takes to be a real spectator. If you need spectating tips, be sure to reach out to Kevin! 

Of course, the usual nonsense happens along the way.

Episode 15 – Bringers of Life

In a twist, Pete opens the show with a tale about the pet in his house – a Betta fish. They know you’ll miss Tater tales, but this is a good story.

The guys thoroughly walk through the last week and a half of training. Kevin got in a lot more workouts. Pete gets into way too many details. Great momentum for both of them!

The usual nonsense happens along the way.

Episode 14 – Do You Trust Your Training?

The guys start the episode with the usual weekly training recap. Kevin’s summary of what Tater finds to eat on walks is the real fun.

Pete asks Kevin if he has ever felt like there is enough training going into an event. That leads to a long discussion on how to trust your training. 

Finally, Kevin confesses to being a sucker for all things patio related. So, if you are in the business of selling grills, smokers, patio furniture, fire pits, etc., this is your day!

Kevin’s Tater update has us thinking about the importance of discipline. Hopefully, Tater is listening!

Episode 12 – The Comparison Trap

Kevin and Pete are back for another moderately entertaining episode.

Kevin gives an update on Tater, including his latest report card. We find out Kev is a little under the weather but did get a couple of good workouts in this last week.

Then, really, Pete takes over and talks a lot. Like, a ton. He updates us on his training, especially a big 3 ½ hour hike. He also lets you inside his brain during that hike as he talks about comparison, especially self-comparison. Do you agree with him? Do his thoughts resonate with you?

All that, some laughs, and more in this fun adventure!
