The Happy Endings Trail Crew sits down with five incredible athletes who took on — and conquered — the inaugural Mammoth 200. Hosts Andrew Marvin and Stephanie Stonebraker guide a lively roundtable filled with stories of grit, community, and chaos from this first-year 200-miler in the Eastern Sierras. From wild weather and sleepless nights to Taco Bell recovery runs, this episode captures what it means to survive (and love) a race that pushes every limit imaginable.

Guests Rachel Entrekin, Kevin Goldberg, Adam Williams, Carol Northrup, and Christian Peranzi each bring their unique perspective: a first-time 200-miler’s awe, a husband-and-wife anniversary on the course, and the relentless drive of those chasing finish lines across the country. Together, they paint a vivid picture of a race that somehow felt both brand new and perfectly dialed in — complete with espresso machines at aid stations, lightning storms at the summit, and friendships forged in fatigue.

It’s an honest, funny, and down-to-earth look at what really happens over 200 miles — the good, the bad, and the weird in between. The group swaps stories about what kept them moving, what broke them down, and what moments made it all worth it. No hype, no filters — just runners talking about why we keep showing up to do the hard things, even when it makes no sense.
