This Dirt Life

Long overdue podcast with Jake 'Dolla' Billings, friend, training partner and absolute ripper on a bike! Hear about how he got started in the sport, what makes him tick and things he's looking forward to in racing

This week I sat down with 3-time Xterra World Champion and Cross Triathlon World Champion Melanie McQuaid and International Elite Runner Marilyn Arsenault to have a candid discussion about coaching athletes, common mistakes and misconceptions and learning to be the best you. I learned a lot during our discussion and feel we could have talked for a lot longer! Hope you enjoy!

This week I caught Jared Fisher literally just as he started his 1400 mile 'Listening Tour' of Nevada. Jared is a local business owner, all around badass, and is now running for Governor for Nevada! He will take 14 days to complete this tour and in doing so will be talking to people from all around the state to find out what people want. Follow him and his journey on Facebook at Fisher for Nevada

This week I was in Monterey, CA for the Sea Otter Classic. I raced the Pro XC Womens race and the Open SingleSpeed XC event. I was able to chat with some sponsors and athletes included in this episode, also reviewing the highs and lows of racing this weekend!
