We catch up with the Hillygoat herself... Hillary Allen from The North Face, to talk motivation and perseverance.

We road tripped up to Elizabethtown for Running Soles running store's Movie Night with Laz. They showed the Barkley Marathons documentary at the local Flywheel Brewery and we hosted a Q&A with the man himself!

Shannon & Clinton catch up with a long time friend of the show... John McKay of Georgia, the Blind Runner!

We welcome another North Face team runner and nutrition PhD Stephanie Howe Violett to the show to discuss all things food!

Shannon and Clinton (apologies for the sinus infection) check in with Dan & Amanda Paige and the Uwharrie 100 in North Carolina!

Shannon & Clinton road trip up to Elizabethtown, KY to chat with Jeff Proctor & Damon Barnes as they plan central Kentucky's first 100... the Falls 100.

Episode 50!!!! We come back from hiatus (thanks Clinton) to interview Georgia Jewel race director Jenny Baker. It was love at first call. Um, yeah. Anyway, we had a blast.
