    The great Greg Duplantis joined the podcast today and added to the crazy European traveling stories of Pat Manson last week.  I was really taken back by so many parts of this podcast, but I think the one that has really been sticking with me is the grassroots story of him vaulting in high school with limited equipment and coaching but still becoming an 18 footer in high school.  That is insane!!!  We talked about the differences in today's vaulters compared to the vaulters of his era, why he thinks Mondo is able to do what he does, and so many different things in between.  There are some podcasts that could literally go for 5 hours or more, and this was one of them.  The amount of experience that Greg brings to the table on both the athlete side and the coaching side of the pole vault is very unique and I was honored to be able to tap into a little of that in this episode.

    One of the most likable people in the pole vaulting community, Pat Manson, graced the podcast with his wisdom and AMAZING STORIES!!!  As far as funny and wild stories in Europe goes, this podcast has got to be one of the best so far.  So many cool stories about some of history's best vaulters.  It was so fun to hear about the adventures that Pat and company had traveling around Europe trying to make it as a professional pole vaulter.  After getting to know Pat, I think that adventure has really increased the richness of his life.  He mentions so many times in this podcast about  doing hard things and the power of experiencing things beyond your comfort zone.  This podcast was difficult to make happen, but as stated above, most great things in life come at the expense of hard work, and this podcast is a great example of that.

    What an awesome surprise!  Katie and I have been trying to schedule a new pod episode for a little while now, and scheduling podcasts is always the most difficult part of podcasting.  Everyone is busy and it is SOOO difficult to get schedules to line up.  When she mentioned that Holly was going to be in town and they were both willing to hop on, it was a no brainer, drop everything and record (or not record) situation.  I am very appreciative of these ladies and their willingness to open up about some potentially vulnerable topics such as the Post Olympics Blues, the effects of mixing money and the pole vault, and many others.  I think the biggest take away from this episode for me was the incredible value of a good friend.  Holly and Katie's friendship originates in the pole vault, but the roots run so much deeper now.  This event, even though it provides great frustration at times, has been so good to so many people, and I think that Katie and Holly would agree that their friendship is one of the greatest things the pole vault has provided them with.

    2004 Olympic Gold Medalist and 6.01m pole vaulter, Tim Mack, graces the podcast with an insane story of turning his dreams into reality.  I was a huge Tim Mack fan when I was a kid, and gained a little knowledge about him by reading his book "Above and Beyond" and watching "A Pole Vaulter's Dream" (a documentary by Bubba McLean and Daniel Ryland), but this podcast brought his story to another level.  Anyone who is interested in setting goals and achieving them needs to take a good hard listen to this, and I'm assuming there are a lot of people that would enjoy setting and achieving goals.  We were on a little bit of a time crunch, but we could have went for hours.  Tim, I know that there will be a lot of people that find tons of value in your story, so thanks for sharing!!!

    What a random and fun episode!  After coming back from a long Saturday at the Reno Pole Vault Summit competitions, I was sitting in my hotel room doing nothing and thought, "I should just set up my podcasting equipment in the Nugget Lobby and see what happens".  Well the risk of looking stupid sitting by myself with an entire podcasting set up paid off.  I was able to convince some of the world's best pole vaulting talent to come have a quick conversation with me.  After stitching all the different conversations together, I think it turned out to be a pretty cool and unique episode.  I hope you enjoy it!

    Coach Tony Holler, the head men’s track and field coach at Plainfield North High School, has been on our podcast “wish list” for a while. Why you ask? Because he is going against the grain on the classic track and field coaching model, and he is getting some great results. He calls his coaching philosophy/method, Feed the Cats. He believes in his concepts for developing speed very deeply and doesn’t really care what people have to say about it. Like him or not, there is something refreshing about listening to someone who stays true to who they are even when they are under attack.
