When you get an opportunity to get a couple of the nicest fellas in the trail running community on at the same time- you take it. We met up with Brad & Logan for a little brunch at Roosters then we headed to Bomber Studios to talk about 2017 and the Bear 100. Both of these guys threw down and had amazing races. Thank you again to Brad & Logan for their time and the chance to learn a little more about what makes "Brogan" tick.

 Another big year for Jeff Browning is in the books and he just keeps getting fitter, faster, better and healthier- this is one guy who seems to have found the fountain of youth. We had Jeff on the once before and everytime we talk to him we learn a thing or two. From his stories about UTMB to his vast knowledge of OFM, we promise this show has something for everyone.  CONTEST ALERT: And one of Jeff's sponsors- UltrAspire- has been kind enough to send over a Velocity pack for us to giveaway. The Velocity pack came from a napkin that Jeff started to skept out a few years back. Enjoy Episode #100 and don't forget to listen to find out the contest rules.

 With her first full year of racing behind her, we catch up with 3rd place female finisher of the Bear 100- Kelsy Bingham. You may remember her first time on the show way back on Episode #25 when we covered her recovery from Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. Well Kelsy beat that and know she is covering the miles in the mountains with smiles and positivity. We cannot express enough how happy we are for Kelsy and her family and all they have done.  Congrats on an amazing 2017! We can't wait to see what 2018 brings.
