He's back! Adam Wolf joins us in the studio to sit down and talk about his Rocky Mountain Slam completion over the summer. He was 17 years old when it started and crossed the Bear at 18 years of age. The Rocky Mountain Slam is an amazing feat for anyone but at 18 - come on!

We talk training, recovery and what this young man has in his future.

The trail community is loaded with amazing people and today we sit down with one of those. Dustin Booker loves the mountains, loves to run and loves life. When you see him on the trails, chances are he "got it out" and greets you with a smile. He is real and authentic and reminds us all why we do this.

When Jim Skaggs came to Utah I am sure he had no idea the impact he would make and the legacy he would leave. It's been 20 years since the first running of the Buffalo Run on Antelope Island and this past weekend Jim packed his trailer for the final time. 

We sit down with Jim and to hear the stories of so many events that he directed: Buffalo Run, Logan Peak, Harriman, Antelope Island Fall Classic, Frary Peak Hill Climb and others. The stories will turn to legends and the friendships will remain. 

Thank you Jim and Karen Skaggs for all you have done here in our trail community here and the trail community everywhere.

Make sure you listen to the end as we have some special memories shared by lives that were touched.
