Just the coaches on this episode! We cover the usual banter, news, but most of the episode is the tidbits we claim to cover in our intro. Mike and Charlie discuss their takeaways from Evoke Endurance coach Scott Johnston's interview on Freetrail. They discuss how they might apply Scott's training methods to themselves and their athletes and where his methods might not work for every athlete. Lea is on the pod, but steps away for a coaching call after some banter.

Lil bit of everything on this one:

Mike signs up for a race, we recap a myriad of recent events in the area, and Will talks about his FKT attempt and his hatred of golf and baseball. We also answer listener questions and challenge the Boulder Boys to the 2026 Stump Jump.

Pod crew was giggly on this one!

We recap Strolling Jim, brag on Martha and Austin's impressive results, discuss what Laz race we would do, hint at a future event, Will incorrectly states that we should go to Black Canyon instead of Canyons, we talk Cocodona and training for 200s, and we squeeze in some LQs (Listener Questions).
