Chase Edwards is the AZT 800 winner in 2021 who battled the Covid pandemic like no one else. As the pandemic was forcing society inside, Chase was battling a misdiagnosed adderall-induced psychosis which forced her to lock herself inside. The AZT 800 race was her way of finding peace with her trauma. After preparing for only two months, when normally a race like this would take at least 8 months of preparation, she was determined to get back on the bike. Her story was so inspirational, and I’m excited to share it with you.

Preston Cates is a Professional Ultra runner for Nike who's Stoke is high. He isn't only an amazing athlete, but he is a person who strives for happiness. His story is one to hear. He pumps up volunteers at aid stations, raises money for his friends in need, and continues to bring people together through sport. There is something to learn about Ultra's, something greater than just fitness alone. Maybe you learn how to become a better human, or maybe just learn how to find peace in uncomfortable circumstances. Either way, Preston seeks Stoke. 

Kyle Trudeau is one of the best cyclists in the country when it comes to Marathon Mountain Biking. In this episode, we talk about what it takes to compete at such a high level. Kyle's discipline expands outside his training on the bike. His habits off the bike could arguably be what sets him apart from his competitors. I'm so honored to hear his story and have learned how to be a better athlete from Kyle. I hope you enjoy.
