Today's guest is John Radich. We met John at the LA Marathon Expo and couldn't help but notice his Badwater belt buckle. After approaching him, we immediately sensed his warmth and generosity, and knew we had to have him on the pod (he also casually mentioned that he's completed Badwater 14 times!). John takes us through his history of running ultras going back to 1979. At 68, John is still crushing miles and if he's not running Badwater, he's out there crewing it. He also talks us through his cross-continental run and why it doesn't count unless you put your feet in the water.
You can follow John on IG: @radichruns

Today's guest is Mike Park. Mike is the founder of Asian Man Records based in San Jose, California. He’s released solo records under his own name and been a member of bands such as Skankin’ Pickle, The Bruce Lee Band, and The Chinkees. Chris and Mike go way back and today Mike tells us about the fundraising effort which led him to bike from Seattle to San Diego and what inspires him to walk 30 miles in 100 degree heat.

On June 11, 2022, our host Mark Nieto finished his first ultramarathon, The Shadow of The Giants 50k. Starting in Fish Camp, CA, the race takes you through the Sierra National Forest, culminates with a loop around a grove of giant sequoia trees, and then takes you back to Fish Camp. Mark goes into great detail about what he endured including his traverse through an area he coined, "The Gauntlet."

Today's guest is Ty Haney. As the founder of Outdoor Voices, Ty understands the many sides of running so we were excited to hear about her new endeavors, Joggy and the web3 platform, Try Your Best. She walks us through Joggy's plant-based CBD supplements designed for "full-spectrum activity" and shares what it was like growing up in Boulder, Colorado.
