Join Rich Froning and the Mayhem hunt team as they dive into all things happening at Mayhem Hunt. From a brewing 5K grudge match and Ironman training to a 24-hour trail relay, fitness is front and center as always. The crew recaps their whirlwind trip through the NWTF Convention and Western Hunt Expo, where new connections were made and new hunts potentially landed on the calendar. They tease an exciting fall lineup that includes archery antelope, elk, mule deer, and a backcountry spring bear hunt that's equal parts exciting and uncertain. The big news? Hunt Camp is coming. Rich and the team break down their vision for an intimate beginner-to-intermediate Western hunting experience set in the Colorado mountains. Think full bow setups, glassing breakouts, pack skills, rucking, and plenty of campfire time. Whether you've never been out West or just want to tighten up your game, this episode gives you a first look at what to expect.

“[It's about] expecting each other to perform to a certain level, holding each other to a certain level, and just love. High expectations, high love — that's what coach always says. That's something we do a good job with. You can't have one without the other. Our team is definitely built on love and gratitude and we always push ourselves to be our best.” Riley Chamberlain joins us fresh off one of the biggest performances of the NCAA season.Just days ago in Boston, Riley ran 4:20.61 for the mile, breaking the NCAA record in a race that perfectly captured where collegiate women's distance running is right now—stacked fields, fearless pacing, and a generation that keeps pushing the event forward. But talk to Riley, and she'll be the first to tell you she's not interested in chasing times. With championship season around the corner, her focus has already shifted to racing, competing, and figuring out how to win when the pacers step off and it's just athletes battling athletes.In this conversation, we talk about the steady progression that led to this breakthrough, how cross country laid the strength foundation for her range from the 800m all the way to the 5K, and the training dynamic at BYU—where working alongside teammates like Jane Hedengren means getting pushed every single day. She reflects on the program's culture of what they call “high expectations, high love,” the lessons she's carried from past teammates, and the mindset shift from hoping she belonged at the top level to knowing she does.We also dig into the long view—how patience, development, and belief have shaped her career, why she sees championship racing as a completely different sport than time trials, and what she hopes to accomplish before closing out her collegiate chapter.Riley Chamberlain is now an NCAA record holder. But as you'll hear, she believes the most important races are still ahead.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavezGuest: Riley Chamberlain | @riley_chamberlain04Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSUSATF: The USATF Indoor Track and Field Championships presented by Prevagen are back in New York City from February 28th to March 1st at the Ocean Breeze Athletic Complex in Staten Island.

In this episode of the Trackstaa Podcast, Lucy and Rich break down the biggest moments from the British Championships and what they mean for the future of British athletics.They dive into Keely Hodgkinson's statement performance ahead of Liévin, discussing her growing world record ambitions, while also highlighting the confidence boost for Izzy Boffey after her breakthrough sub two minute run. The conversation celebrates Hannah Nuttall's championship record performance, ending a 24 year wait, but also questions the overall depth of competition, particularly in a men's 1500m final that lacked numbers and intensity.Beyond the racing itself, Lucy and Rich reflect on the noticeably low crowd attendance and debate the controversial use of wave lights in championship finals. They also touch on promising marathon debuts from Ellis Cross and Sarah Astin, assess strong early season 5K performances, and consider the growing recognition of Laura Muir as a serious road racing threat.From standout performances to bigger questions about the sport's direction, this episode delivers honest analysis and bold takes on where British athletics is heading next.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-running-pod-trackstaa/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The start line is where nerves, adrenaline, and self-doubt all show up at once. In this episode, I share five simple phrases every athlete can use to stay grounded, patient, and present when it matters most. We talk about trusting the work you've done, resisting the urge to race too early, narrowing your focus to what's right in front of you, and normalizing the fact that things will get hard. We also zoom out and remember what racing is really about — celebrating the work, the community, and the joy of showing up on race day. Whether you're racing a 5K, marathon, triathlon, or stepping into competition for the first time, these phrases are tools you can come back to again and again to execute better and enjoy the experience more. Save them. Repeat them. And take them with you to your next start line.

You know that quiet voice that says, "I'm meant for more than this." And then life hits. Grief. A cross-country move. A husband losing his job. Most people would shrink back. Jamie Ross decided to go all in. After decades of dabbling, Jamie made one bold decision, to run her photography business like it mattered. What followed was a whirlwind year of loss, courage, and $20,000 in wall portrait sales in just weeks. This isn't about hustle. It's about choosing purpose when everything feels uncertain. Here's what you'll walk away with: • Why running a business is a decision, not a feeling • How to sell $5K wall art with heart, not pressure • The mindset shift that turns fear into forward motion If you've been waiting for the "right time," this is your sign. Jamie's story will remind you that you're stronger than you think, and your work is worth more than you've been charging. Press play. This one might just change everything.

Jeff Weniger talks about the potential geopolitical “anvils” hanging over a market rally, including Venezuela, Iran, China and more. However, he's still looking to international equities for opportunities. He turns to Japan, making the argument that the return of Abenomics will be bullish. He doesn't like Bitcoin right now, but thinks gold can break above the $5K level again, and says $6K is “more realistic” than $4K. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

This week on the Dirt and Vert Podcast, we are joined by the incredible Becca Joyner—ultra runner, course record holder, and a powerhouse who balances three boys and multiple jobs while crushing miles.Becca takes us through her evolution from a workplace step challenge to setting the course record at Dark Anchor. We dive into the raw, humbling reality of races like Volstate and the Yeti 100, where running strips you down to the bare essentials of survival. Becca opens up about the emotional toll of training, the "kindness of strangers" that keeps you moving at Mile 80, and her deep-seated passion for fundraising for Type 1 Diabetes research.This is an episode about grit, vulnerability, and finding a purpose far bigger than the finish line.

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Go to www.LearningLeader.com This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: Tom Hardin was known as "Tipper X" during Operation Perfect Hedge, the largest insider trading investigation in history. After making four illegal trades based on inside information, the FBI approached him on a Manhattan street corner and convinced him to wear a wire over 40 times, helping build 20 of the 81 cases. Key Learnings  Ambiguity is where ethical lines blur. Tom's boss said, "Do whatever it takes," after the hedge fund lost money, and as a junior employee, Tom didn't ask clarifying questions. The undiscussable becomes undiscussable. Leaders give ambiguous messages, then pretend they weren't ambiguous, employees get confused and don't question the boss, and you end up with a culture of silence. Making decisions in isolation is dangerous. The information came to Tom and he didn't talk to his boss or his wife (who probably would've slapped him around for crossing ethical lines). Psychological safety requires muscle memory. You have to practice saying "I'm just going to ask some clarifying questions here" when your boss gives ambiguous orders. Bad decisions aren't mistakes. Mistakes are made without intent, but bad decisions are made with intent. Tom told himself for years he made "mistakes," but on a drive home from speaking at a keynote, he realized: "There's no way I made mistakes. I made bad decisions." Never say never. Tom argues you're more susceptible to falling down your own slippery slope when you think "that would never be me." 80% of employees can be swayed either way. 10% are morally incorruptible, 10% are a compliance nightmare, and 80% can be influenced by the culture around them. Tone at the top means nothing. Company culture isn't the tone at the top or glossy shareholder letters; it's the behaviors employees believe will be rewarded or put them ahead. Reward character, not just results. You can't just focus on short-term performance and dollar goals without understanding how the business was made and what was behind the performance. The question isn't "what?" but "how?" If you're just focused on the numbers and not on how you got there, you have the opportunity to end up in a slippery slope situation. Celebrate people who live your values. Companies that spend millions on trips for people who live out shared values (not financial performance) are putting their money where their mouth is. Leaders must share their own ethical dilemmas. We've all been in situations where we could go left or right, and sharing how you worked through those moments makes you more endearing and a better leader. Keep a rationalization journal. When Tom and his wife have big decisions (or even little things), he writes them down in a rationalization journal and reflects on them once a month. He's still susceptible to going down another slippery slope, so checking himself on those passing thoughts improves his character over time. It's not what you say, it's what you do. Just like kids see what parents do (not what they say), employees see what behaviors leaders actually reward. $46,000 cost him $23 million. A business school professor calculated Tom would've made $23 million if he'd stayed on the hedge fund path, but he made $46,000 on the four illegal trades before getting caught. His wife was his rock. 85% of marriages end when something like this happens, and she had every right to leave. They just got married, no kids yet. But she stayed. When Tom interviewed her for the book 20 years later, she said, "All I remember is you accepted responsibility immediately. You didn't make up excuses." Running pulled him out of a shame spiral. Tom got obese as a stay-at-home dad. His wife signed him up for a 5K race (and beat him while pushing a jogging stroller). Just crossing that finish line lit a fire. He ended up running a 100-mile race.  Doing hard things teaches you that you can do hard things. When Tom had to start a speaking business because they were running out of money, he said, "I can do this" because he'd already put his body through ultramarathons. No challenge is insurmountable. He ended up with something better. It's not about status or money anymore; it's about who he is with his family and his relationships now. Windshield mentality, not rearview mirror. Tom can't change the past, but he can look forward instead of backward. A lot of people in their twenties do stupid stuff (maybe not to this degree), but now, in his forties, he can learn from it. Why not embrace it rather than try to scrub it off the internet? Eulogy virtues versus resume virtues. In his twenties, Tom only thought about resume virtues (how much money, the next job, the next stepping stone) and never about eulogy virtues (what people will say about his character when it's all over). What will people say at your eulogy? Will they still be talking about those four trades, or will they talk about who you became after? More Learning #226 - Steve Wojciechowski: How to Win Every Day #281 - George Raveling: Wisdom from MLK Jr to Michael Jordan #637 - Tom Ryan: Chosen Suffering: Become Elite in Life & Leadership Reflection Questions Tom's boss gave him an ambiguous message ("do whatever it takes"), and as a junior employee, he didn't ask clarifying questions. Think about the last ambiguous instruction you received from leadership. Did you ask clarifying questions, or did you fill in the blanks yourself? What's stopping you from creating psychological safety to ask next time? Tom argues that 80% of employees can be swayed either way by culture. Look at your organization right now. What behaviors are actually being rewarded? If someone asked your team "what gets you ahead here?" what would they honestly say? Tom asks: "Will people be talking about the resume virtues (money, titles, achievements) or the eulogy virtues (character, relationships, who you were) when you're gone?" What's one eulogy virtue you need to start prioritizing today, even if it means slowing down on resume building?

If you're frustrated in your business right now…   It's probably not because you're lazy. It's probably not because you're bad at coaching. And it's probably not because the market is "saturated."   It's because you're solving the wrong problem for the phase you're in.   And today, I'm going to break down the three phases of business growth and exactly what you should be focusing on in each one. What gets you to 5K is not what gets you to 20K.

Travis Chappell and producer Eric break down YouTuber Markiplier's self-financed horror film Iron Lung, which grossed over $20M (7x its $3M budget) and topped box office charts—without Hollywood backing. Their casual chat celebrates indie success while roasting studio "slop," low actor pay, and why creators with audiences have a massive edge. On this episode we talk about: Iron Lung's unicorn success: $3M self-funded, zero marketing budget, #1 at box office vs. big studio flops Hollywood's shady side: Missing box office charts, low actor pay ($2-5K/episode after cuts), no royalties Creator advantages: Built-in audiences = free marketing; YouTubers like Radio Silence (A24 hits) proving the model Why constraints breed better art: Low stakes, passion projects outperform bloated $100M+ budgets Lessons for creators: Make what excites you; democratized access means anyone can bypass gatekeepers Top 3 Takeaways Existing audiences are the ultimate marketing hack—Markiplier's casual promo beat Hollywood's $50M+ spends. Low-budget passion projects often outperform high-stakes slop because creators prioritize art over profit. Hollywood's math sucks for most: After agents/taxes, "star" roles pay peanuts—build your own leverage first. Notable Quotes "Iron Lung... has already done over $20 million in the box office and has been the number one movie through the weekend." "They just write somebody else... [so] rather than look at it as giving me $2200 an episode, how much money are they putting into marketing the show?" "Stop making [content] like a chore... what would I want to record that would be like a shining light in my calendar?"

Or worse—they stay on the phone and still say no.The problem isn't your script. It never was.Most wholesalers are grinding for $5K and $7K checks competing with 50 other investors on the same list because they're focused on what to say instead of how to say it—and they're rushing to make offers before the seller even trusts them.In this video I'm breaking down the full PRYME Seller Conversion Framework—the exact 4-part system I use to close $30K, $50k and $100k wholesale deals without a script.What you'll learn:✔️ The 93% Rule and why it matters more than anything you say on a cold call✔️ The only line in the entire framework that should be scripted word for word✔️ How to build enough trust that sellers open up and tell you everything✔️ The 3 mental shifts that take a seller from “I'll think about it” to “let's do this”✔️ How to present your offer as relief instead of a number—and why that's the difference between getting a signed contract and getting ghostedThis is for you if: You're a real estate wholesaler who is tired of grinding for small deals, getting hung up on constantly, and watching other investors close while you're stuck trying to figure out why your calls aren't converting.___________________________________________________________Resources:FIND OUT WHAT'S BLOCKING YOU:Take the free Wholesaler Quiz and discover what type of wholesaler you are + what's keeping you from closing $30k+ deals:

This week we kick things off underground with a full recap of the Groundhog Run at Subtropolis, one of the most unique races around and one that has us literally running through caves. We talk about the good, the weird, and the wildly frustrating, especially the annual bus and parking chaos that leaves runners standing in the cold longer than we'd like. Once inside, though, the event shines with a warm cave atmosphere, great volunteers, and a community vibe that keeps us coming back year after year. We break down the Tunnel to Tunnel Challenge, tackling both the 5K and 10K, navigating crowded starts, overdressing for the cold, and trying to stay loose while waiting nearly two hours between races. It turns into a lesson in patience as muscles tighten, sweat cools, and we're reminded how tricky winter racing can be. Along the way we celebrate small wins, from improved 10K pacing to cheering on friends hitting big milestones like their first 10K finish. We also share why we skipped the Kickoff 5K after a tough 16 mile long run and a grumpy knee, choosing smart training over stubborn miles as Tokyo gets closer. With taper season officially here, the focus shifts from racing everything to protecting the body and making it to the starting line healthy. It's a mix of cave miles, cold mornings, medal hauls, and honest talk about listening to your body. As always, we're just figuring it out together, one step at a time on the road to Tokyo.

Anne Champagne nous parle de l'entraînement qui lui a permis de monter sur le podium de la Diagonale des Fous en 2025. Elle nous raconte également sa course et les ajustements apportés à sa préparation en vue du Black Canyon 100K, une épreuve qui exige beaucoup plus de vitesse. (Elle ne participera finalement pas à la course en raison d'une blessure.)

In this episode Nicole talks with Jill Brabec, President of Nordic Combined USA, about one of the Olympics' oldest sports that still excludes women. Nordic Combined blends ski jumping and cross country skiing, requiring athletes to launch themselves down steep terrain at maximum speed, fly the length of a football field, then immediately race 5K on skinny skis. Despite being in the Olympics since 1924, women were denied entry to the 2026 Games. Jill, a Steamboat Springs ski mom turned advocate, formed a nonprofit with other parents to save the US team when funding collapsed. Her daughter Alexa trains in Norway but can't compete in the Olympics due to gender restrictions. The IOC will decide about 2030 inclusion this spring after reviewing 2026 data. Jill draws parallels to women's ski jumping, which faced identical arguments 15 years ago and is now successful. She encourages fans to watch men's Nordic Combined February 11, 17, and 19 to show viewership demand, sign the petition at nordiccombineusa.org, and follow athletes on social media. The sport features 17 World Cups for women who jump the same hills as men and train at Lake Placid, Park City, and Steamboat Springs.

VO₂ max training isn't about running harder, it's about running at the right speed or you're just wearing yourself down for nothing.If you've been doing “hard” interval sessions but still aren't getting faster in your 5K, 10K, or marathon, you might be missing the real point of VO₂ max training—and wasting effort. In this episode, I break down exactly what true VO₂ max pace feels and looks like, why most runners get it wrong (even when they think they're pushing hard), and how to dial in the right speed using free tools and recent race data—so your intervals finally deliver results without burning you out.Key TakeawaysTrue VO2 max training is about hitting a specific, fast pace, not just getting your heart rate into a certain zone. Using pace is the only way to guarantee you trigger the right adaptations.You must base your workout speeds on what you can run right now, not what you wish you could run. Using a goal pace that's too fast will ruin your workout and your progress.The magic happens in efforts under 5 minutes. Going longer lets lactic acid build up too much, which changes the entire purpose of the workout from improving VO2 max to just surviving.Timestamps[00:25] What You'll Learn[01:20] Vo2 Max Pace vs Vo2 Max Heart Rate[05:36] Use This to Improve Your Vo2 Max[06:22] How to Find Your Actual Vo2Max Pace[09:20] The Two Pacing Mistakes[11:09] Vo2 Max Myths Busted[13:40] Go Deeper on Vo2 Max with ThisLinks & Learnings

Fireworks before sunrise, yoga in the cold, and a finish line that felt like a farewell—this Disneyland race weekend had a different kind of electricity. We open with Miss Piggy's cameo on the castle screen and roll straight into the expo's virtual queue scramble, a quick detour through misplaced bib drama, and a check-in with Jeff and Barbara Galloway that left us optimistic and grateful. Between merch scarcity, the Dumbo hoodie frenzy, and smarter PhotoPass ops, the weekend balanced magic with mechanics in classic runDisney fashion.The 5K reminded us why the west coast course is beloved: quiet fireworks, a park-start and park-finish, and sunrise over Pixar Pier. A surprise “balloon lady” sighting and a late-course cut around Avengers Campus created some confusion, but the joy still landed. The 10K leaned into imagination—Sorcerer Mickey everywhere, Figment looping in our heads, and backstage Easter eggs like the Tower of Terror sign and A Bug's Life props. Photo lines moved faster, and runners helped each other grab those castle shots when photographers cleared out near the back.The half marathon tied it all together. Early laps through DCA, then a thoughtful route across Anaheim with out-and-backs that turned the race into a reunion. The 501st brought free hugs and big energy; third-shift custodial cast cheered like pros. We talk pacing with run-walk-run, efficient PhotoPass at small world and Millennium Falcon, and the thrill of a fast finish that also marked a 100th RunDisney medal. The DCA picnic-area meetup overflowed—cookies, bracelets, and the best conversations of the weekend—proof that this community keeps the magic alive long after the medals are hung.We close with the question on everyone's mind: will runDisney return to Disneyland? Some of us think yes, but not soon; others felt a real goodbye in Carissa's voice. Either way, the stories, tips, and friendships from this weekend are here to keep you moving.

Most wholesalers are grinding 20+ deals to hit $100K/mo. What if you could do it with 3? The real estate market shifted in 2025—and the investors who adapted are closing $30K-$50K deals while working less. If you're stuck doing high-volume, low-margin deals, this video will change everything.This video is for real estate investors and wholesalers who are: ∙ Working harder than ever but seeing smaller profits ∙ Closing multiple deals but still struggling to scale ∙ Tired of the grind and ready for a smarter approach ∙ Looking to transition from volume-based wholesaling to high-margin dealsWhy Watch This NOW:The real estate market has fundamentally changed. What worked in before doesn't work in 2026. Competition is higher, margins are tighter, and the old “more leads, more calls, more deals” approach is keeping investors broke and burned out.In this video, I break down the 6 principles that separate investors grinding for $5K checks from those consistently banking $30K-$50K deals—without working more hours or spending more on marketing.What You'll Discover:✅ Why volume-based wholesaling is dead (and what replaced it)✅ The buyer-first framework that closes deals faster✅ How to identify high-profit opportunities most investors miss✅ The simple system that generates $100k+/mo with 2-3 deals✅ Why precision beats hustle in the new era of real estateGet Rich in the new era of real estatewatch the full episode here:https://youtu.be/w2bxKhE-51I________________________________________________________________Download this

Using the Energy of the Fire Horse-Part 3     What if the thing holding you back isn't your circumstances… but your waiting? That's the question I'm asking myself—and you—in this episode of Be a Warrior. As I move into my seventh year as an above-knee amputee and step into 2026, I feel a shift happening. A deep, unmistakable pull to stop waiting for life to feel easier, cleaner, or more predictable—and instead start leading, exactly where I am. This episode is part three of my five-part series inspired by the Year of the Fire Horse, and if you've missed the first two, I highly recommend going back and listening. This series is building intentionally, because growth doesn't happen in isolation—it happens in layers. In the first episode, I talked about movement, momentum, and fearless expansion. Not fearless in the absence of fear, but fearless in the willingness to move through it. As amputees—and honestly, as humans—we live with a lot of fear. Fear of pain. Fear of falling. Fear of how our bodies will feel tomorrow. Fear of what people see when they look at us. Expansion doesn't mean fear disappears. It means we don't let it decide our future. Last week, we explored the bold, passionate energy of the Fire Horse and how powerful energy can work for us—or against us. Energy doesn't discriminate. If you're prepared, it can propel you forward faster than you imagined. If you're unprepared, it can feel overwhelming and destabilizing. This year is not subtle. It's loud. It's demanding. And it's asking us to participate instead of sit on the sidelines. Which brings me to this week's focus: leading instead of waiting. If you're not an amputee, let me pull back the curtain for a moment. Amputee life—especially in the early years—is dominated by waiting. Waiting for wounds to heal. Waiting for insurance approvals. Waiting for appointments. Waiting for test sockets. Waiting for remakes. Waiting for your limb to shrink, change, adjust, stabilize. Waiting for your body to feel like it belongs to you again. There can be more time spent waiting than actually living, and that kind of waiting is exhausting. I've watched so many people—myself included—get stuck in that space. Not because we're weak, but because the system trains us to wait. And at some point, that waiting becomes a habit. We tell ourselves, Once this socket fits better… once I heal… once this next thing happens… then I'll start living. This year is calling us out on that. The Year of the Fire Horse is designed for people who are ready to lead instead of wait. And leadership doesn't mean having all the answers. It means choosing not to put your life on hold. You can lead from a wheelchair. You can lead while healing. You can lead while waiting on insurance or surgery or the next prosthetic adjustment. Leading means asking yourself: What can I do today, with what I have, where I am? Because sitting and waiting doesn't just pause your life—it quietly erodes your confidence, your joy, and your sense of purpose. I know that when I wait too long, I stop meeting people. I stop moving my body. I stop feeling good about myself. I start complaining. And that's not the life I want—and I don't believe it's the life you want either. The Fire Horse only comes around once every 60 years. When the energy of fire and horse combine, it's powerful, fast, and transformative. But everything I've read says the positive outcomes come from preparation. From intention. From deciding ahead of time that when the energy hits, you're ready to ride instead of getting knocked over. For me, that preparation has meant getting quiet, introspective, and honest about what I want my next 12 months to look like. How I want to lead myself. How I want to show up for my family. How I want to live—not someday, but now. And that's why I'm inviting you into action.     On February 17th, the Fire Horse energy officially begins, and I'm hosting a Year of the Fire Horse Virtual Challenge for women. It's a 5K, 10K, half marathon, or marathon—done virtually, at your pace, in your way. This isn't about speed or perfection. It's about momentum. Accountability. Community. About proving to yourself that you can start before everything feels perfect. To Join the Virtual Challenge click HERE Get 30% of when you use the discount code: JOLLY   Waiting doesn't have to be your full-time job. This episode is a call to stop postponing your life. To stop telling yourself you'll start when conditions improve. To recognize that leadership begins the moment you decide to move—even if that movement is small, messy, and imperfect. You don't need permission to live fully. You don't need your circumstances to cooperate. You just need to decide that waiting no longer gets to run the show. This is your year to lead. Not tomorrow. Not when it's easier. Today. I'll be right here, walking it with you. And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much Love,          

Send us a textThe mountain weekend Flagstaff has been waiting for just showed up with big legs and bigger lungs. We sit down with race director Aaron Barber to unpack how Flagstaff Sky Peaks evolved from a “nice race in the pines” into a full three-day festival at Arizona Snowbowl, built around steep ski runs, high-altitude ridgelines, and a finish-line scene right by the lodge. From a Friday uphill lung-burner to Saturday's slate with a 2,500-foot opening climb, fixed-time vert loops, and distances from 5K to 50 mile, to a Sunday point-to-point that tops out near 11,500 feet, this is mountain racing with teeth.Aaron shares the playbook behind the overhaul: hard-won permits through Coconino National Forest, alignment with resort management to unlock summer terrain, and a design that prioritizes big climbs, real technicality, and community. We dive into the 50-mile circumnavigation of the San Francisco Peaks caldera, why short doesn't mean easy, and how gnarly ski-run grades change pacing, fueling, and gear choices. If you're planning a late-summer or early fall schedule, we lay out who should target which race, how to prep for altitude swings and unpredictable weather, and why descending on tired legs might be the weekend's real decider.We also explore the competitive layer: potential prize purses, what scalable anti-doping could look like, and early conversations that align the event with skyrunning-style courses and live coverage. Flagstaff's running culture, from Buffalo Park sessions to big-vert weekends, frames the story, while the Snowbowl venue adds food, beer, and an easy basecamp to keep the community together between efforts. Whether you chase the uphill, stack a vert challenge, or go all-in on the point-to-point, Sky Peaks now offers a sharper test for elites and everyday mountain runners alike.If you enjoy the show, tap follow, share it with your crew, and leave a quick review so more runners can find us.

In XYBM 149, we sit down inside Baltimore City Hall with Brandon Scott, Baltimore's 52nd mayor, for a rare and deeply personal conversation about leadership, trauma, and what it really takes to transform a city.Mayor Scott opens up about growing up in Park Heights, navigating personal loss, and how his lived experiences shaped his decision to lead differently. We talk about Black history, the responsibility of power, and why being unapologetically Black — especially in moments of crisis — is not just political, but necessary.This conversation also dives into Baltimore's historic reductions in violent crime, what's actually working statewide, and how Mayor Scott centers Black women, accountability, and healing in his approach to public safety. He shares why mental health support for Black men is a leadership issue, not a side conversation — and why changing outcomes requires changing systems and culture.This is not a soundbite interview — it's a real conversation about trauma, courage, and the kind of leadership Black communities deserve. Tune in on all podcast streaming platforms, including YouTube.Leave a 5-star review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if you found value in this episode or a previous episode!  BOOK US FOR SPEAKING + BRAND DEALS:————————————Explore our diverse collaboration opportunities as the leading and fastest-growing Black men's mental health platform on social media.

A Race Against the Cold When temperatures plummet below freezing in Winchester, Virginia, Robyn Miller's phone doesn't stop ringing. As Executive Director of WATTS (Winchester Area Temporary Transitional Shelter), she oversees a lifesaving operation that runs 24 hours a day during the coldest months of the year.  In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Robyn about how this winter has tested her team like never before, with sustained sub-zero temperatures creating dangerous conditions for the area's homeless population. The organization's founding story serves as a stark reminder of what's at stake. Years ago, someone froze to death on Winchester's streets because they had nowhere to go. That tragedy sparked the creation of WATTS, and today, Robyn remains laser-focused on ensuring it never happens again. Two Shelters, One Mission WATTS operates through a dual-facility model designed to meet different needs throughout the day. First, the warming center at Montague Avenue United Methodist Church opens its doors from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM providing a safe haven during daylight hours. During this brutal cold snap, staff have extended hours beyond their typical 1:00 PM closing time, recognizing that many people won't seek overnight shelter for various personal reasons. Meanwhile, the overnight shelter rotates through 21 host churches across the community, currently welcoming up to 45 guests each night from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM. This week, Christ Episcopal Church downtown serves as the temporary home, conveniently located where guests can walk directly to the entrance without needing bus transportation. Breaking Down Barriers to Safety Getting people through the door requires more than just opening it. Robyn explains that safety concerns keep many homeless individuals from seeking shelter, so WATTS has implemented strict protocols to address these fears. Staff conduct light searches to ensure no drugs, alcohol, or weapons enter the facility, creating an environment where everyone can rest without worry. Furthermore, the shelter maintains two staff members on duty throughout the night, checking on guests regularly. This vigilance proves especially critical given that many residents struggle with serious health issues, including seizures. The staff doesn't just monitor—they actively care, ensuring each person breathes safely through the night. The entry requirements remain intentionally minimal. Anyone over 18 can walk in and give a name—it doesn't even have to be their real one. Guests need only bring a light bag of necessities, a policy designed to prevent bedbug infestations while still accommodating essential belongings. Beyond a Warm Bed While immediate shelter saves lives, WATTS aims higher. The organization employs dedicated case managers who work with guests willing to take the next steps toward stability. Already in January alone, the team has housed five people and helped three others enter rehabilitation programs. Additionally, they've assisted two individuals in returning to their home communities outside the area. This comprehensive approach extends to WATTS' partnership with the Winchester Police Department's Addiction Recovery Program and their ownership of two transitional homes through a collaboration with 143 Transformations. Robyn emphasizes a crucial point: you can't simply hand someone who's been chronically homeless for 13 years the keys to an apartment and expect success. Instead, staff work daily with residents, helping them relearn or update skills for navigating systems that provide food, transportation, and other essential services. The Community Responds The warming center's current needs reflect the intensity of this winter's demands. Coffee flies off the shelves—Robyn reports they're down to their last five pounds of sugar. Guests particularly appreciate flavored creamers, a small luxury that brings comfort during difficult times. Beyond beverages, the center welcomes snacks, baked goods, and even gallons of milk. Moreover, WinReady bus cards have become invaluable. Many WATTS guests maintain employment and need reliable transportation to work, while others require rides to medical appointments. With sidewalks transformed into what local news dubbed "snowcrete" - concrete- hard ice impossible to remove - safe transportation has become even more critical. Counting the Invisible This week marks the annual Point in Time Count, a nationwide effort to quantify homelessness. Volunteers fan out across the region from Harrisonburg to Winchester, visiting encampments, shelters, and motels to ask a simple question: are you homeless? The count typically reveals around 400 people in the region, but Robyn knows the real number tells a different story. Using the McKinney-Vento Rule, advocates multiply the official count by ten, estimating approximately 4,000 people experience homelessness across the area. This discrepancy exists for several reasons: some individuals hide in locations volunteers never find, others refuse to be counted for privacy reasons, and families with children fall under a completely different counting system managed by the State Department of Education. These numbers matter beyond statistics. Federal funding for low-income housing depends directly on these counts, making accurate data essential for addressing the crisis long-term. The Coldest Night of the Year On February 28th, WATTS will host its largest fundraiser, responsible for a quarter of the organization's operational budget. The Coldest Night of the Year walk brings together hundreds of community members for a simple 2K stroll through downtown Winchester, with a more challenging 5K option winding through the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley. Last year, 800 participants braved the elements. This year, Robyn hopes for even more, especially since the event will feature guest speaker Lauryn Ricketts alongside a former WATTS guest who now works for the organization. This employee will share her firsthand experience of falling into homelessness and the tremendous effort required to escape it. The walk serves multiple purposes beyond fundraising. Guests currently experiencing homelessness watch participants pass by, seeing tangible proof that their community hasn't forgotten them. Many of these individuals grew up in Winchester—this is their home—and they often express feeling left behind as the area's costs skyrocket faster than their fixed incomes can match. A Purely Private Mission Unlike many social service organizations, WATTS receives zero state, federal, or local government funding. Every dollar comes from individual donors, fundraising events, and participating churches. This complete reliance on private support makes community engagement not just helpful but absolutely essential. Robyn runs WATTS as a business because it must be one—with insurance, electrical bills, a bus to maintain, trained staff to employ, and operational expenses that don't pause for winter storms. The recent snow has driven costs even higher, yet turning people away simply isn't an option when lives hang in the balance. Looking Ahead As this brutal winter continues, Robyn remains focused on her primary goal: ensuring no one freezes to death on Winchester's streets. The warming center stays open, the overnight shelter rotates through its church partners, and case managers continue working to transition people from temporary shelter to permanent housing. For those wanting to help, the path forward is clear. Donate supplies to the warming center at 102 Montague Avenue between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Sign up for the Coldest Night of the Year walk at https://cnoy.com/location/winchester or through the WATTS website. Write a check. Share social media posts. Every action counts. Because ultimately, WATTS operates on a simple but powerful principle: everyone deserves a home and a door they can close to be safe. Until that becomes reality for every person in the Winchester area, Robyn and her team will keep fighting the freeze, one guest at a time.

We welcome back Julie Gilmor to preview Run Liberty's 10th anniversary race day on March 28, 2026—now featuring an all-new 10K. We dig into how the 10K starts with the half at 8 a.m., swings through Seaport, and finishes with the 5K, giving runners fresh scenery without heavy new infrastructure. We clear up the name-and-logo shuffle: the race is now “Run Liberty,” proceeds benefit the Liberty Live Well Foundation, and Liberty Hospital's new partnership with The University of Kansas Health System strengthens local care. We talk presenting sponsor Give Me Liberty, the America 250 tie-in, and why this nonprofit race keeps 100% of proceeds in the community. Expo fans rejoice: we're staying at William Jewell, Omni Apparel returns with merch (including an inaugural 10K shirt), and those beloved Liberty gloves live on. We cover medals (6-inch half, 5-inch 10K, 4-inch 5K), generous cutoffs around 16-minute miles, and safety upgrades on the frontage road. Big River Race Management joins the team this year, bringing major-league timing and logistics. We also plug our March 12 Chasing Rabbits Run Club x BOTP four-year party where Run Liberty will be on site with swag and a few race entry giveaways. And yes, we celebrate Fret Row's eternal lukewarm beer stop and the on-course pass by the TreeHouse, a visible reminder of where dollars go. Hills included, community amplified—register, show up, and we'll see you at the finish.

Today, Mike & Scott are here to start the weekend with a fun game of "Hit the Gas or Pump The Brakes?" on some current Disney topics! Should Disney go full-speed ahead on adding more capacity to 5K events moving forward, or hit those brakes? What about adding more specialty lounges to the theme parks? How about dynamic ticket pricing? Live music in the theme parks? We have lots more topics to discuss on today's show as well!

Confetti at the finish is only part of the story. We sit down with Walt Disney World Marathon champion Matt Hensley to trace the path from family running roots and college grind to a smart, tactical win built on adaptation, fueling, and a decisive late-race move. Matt walks us through race-week realities—working the expo, long park days, heavy legs—and explains how dew point data and small early adjustments can save a marathon when heat sneaks in. He opens his playbook on fueling (60–90g carbs per hour), mid-race decision-making, and the difference between racing for time and racing for place, including the surge that sealed the pass near mile 20.The conversation widens to purpose, mindset, and coaching. As the founder of Boulder Underground, Matt shares how he coaches beginners to elites by aligning big goals with daily habits, calling on a trusted network of PTs, dietitians, and mental performance experts. We dig into his three-part framework for 26.2—body, mind, and spirit—so listeners leave with practical steps: test nutrition in training, find early flow instead of forcing splits, and anchor to a meaningful why when the tough miles arrive. Along the way, you'll hear a hilarious nearly-Guinness-record family saga, Disney course highlights, and the energizing role of characters, music, and community on race day.We also spotlight our Disneyland meetup details, roll call an enormous list of racers, and celebrate listener PRs from 5K to marathon. Whether you're chasing a Boston qualifier, your first half, or a steadier long run, you'll find tools and motivation to sharpen your next start line.
