Canyon Woodward is pro trail runner for Patagonia from Franklin, NC. Canyon has proven himself to be among the most consistent long-course athletes in America, finishing top five at three golden ticket races in a six-month timespan: Javelina Jundred (3rd), Black Canyon 100k (4th), and Canyons 100k (5th). Carrying a lot of fitness and competitive momentum, Canyon will be a factor at Western States later this month -- a goal he's been chasing for several years. But Canyon is much more than just a talented runner. He's made his career working in politics and community organizing where he's fought for his values in the public domain – things like rural communities, environmentalism, and conservation, which we discuss at length in the episode. Also part of our conversation is Canyon's recently signing with Patagonia – the iconic outdoor brand that takes a leadership role in the industry and globally around the things that Canyon cares about – the collision of his running career and his career as an environmentalist and activist coming together is an exciting new partnership. This is his first appearance on the podcast. Topics: – Canyon's fascinating childhood and ppbringing – His education and discovering his knack for community organizing – Getting into politics and running a 100% positive campaign – the political power of rural communities – Of course we explore the origins of his running prowess – the value of learning by doing – Consistency and Success in Racing – Navigating Sponsorships and The new Partnership with Patagonia – Preparing for Western States – The Pacer Debate in Ultra Running – Goals for Western States – And a lot more Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front -- The poem recited at the end of the episode Sponsors: Use code FREETRAIL25 for 25% off your first order of NEVERSECOND nutrition at never2.com Check out the Capilene Cool Sun Hoodie from Patagonia Use code FREETRAIL for an extra discount on Clearlight Saunas at HealWithHeat.com Freetrail Links: Website | Freetrail Pro | Patreon | Instagram | YouTube | Freetrail Experts Dylan Links: Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn | Strava

Send us Fan MailOne wrong turn can end your day, or it can reveal what you're made of. Right after the U.S. Mountain Running Championships, we link up with Ares Reading in the airport for a quick, honest debrief on how he ran himself into fourth place and onto Team USA, right behind names like Christian Allen, Dan Curts, and Mason Coppi.We walk the race from the opening climb to the moment Ares, Mason, and Christian all followed the wrong markers into the woods, and the split-second mental scramble that followed. Ares explains how he settled back in, where he regained ground, and why the technical downhills are still the biggest separator for him. If you care about mountain running, trail racing tactics, and what actually changes performance week to week, this conversation gets specific fast.We also dig into training with coach Matt Daniels, including fatigue resistance sessions, long hill reps, and a hill ladder workout designed to simulate pushing hard on tired legs. Ares shares how getting dropped on technical descents at Canyons flipped a switch, why he's leaning into more technical downhill practice, and what he's most excited about next at Broken Arrow and beyond, with international goals on the horizon.If you're chasing your own breakthrough, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a trail friend, and leave a review so more runners can find the show.Follow Ares on IG - @ares_readingUse code SteepStuff for 20% your cart on Sidas.usFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podFollow Sidas USA on IG - @sidas_usa
This week on Diverse Thinking Different Learning, we are discussing the crucial challenge of supporting neurodivergent children without doing so in a way that hinders them from independence. Joining us to take on this topic is Dr. Tara Williams, founder of Innovative Collegiate Consultants. Dr. William is also a tenured Chemistry professor at College of the Canyons in California, and has spent more than ten years supporting neurodivergent students as they transition from K-12 systems, helping them build confidence and independence in academic settings. Dr. Williams helps us understand why "helicopter parenting" is not a simple label but is actually a nuanced balance between necessary support and modeling independence, highlighting that parents often act as organizers, advocates, and reminders long before students are ready to fully take over those roles themselves. Through practical, relatable examples, we unpack how independence is gradually built through small, intentional steps rather than sudden, jarring changes. Our conversation highlights how self-advocacy is not just about speaking up but is also about learning how to ask for help when needed, breaking down tasks, regulating emotions, and more. Dr. Williams shares helpful strategies such as "body doubling," shared study routines, and reward systems that help students stay engaged without removing responsibility from them. She also discusses how parents can begin transferring responsibility in middle school through minor, manageable tasks such as ordering food, emailing teachers, and planning assignments, gradually and gently increasing independence through high school and into college preparation. A major focus of this episode is how executive functioning skills like time management, organization, planning, and follow-through can be strengthened with early, consistent practice, with Dr. Williams also stressing the importance of building peer support networks so that students learn to rely on classmates and study partners rather than depending solely on adults. We stress that mistakes and failure are part of the learning process and that early structure paired with increasing autonomy can really help students develop confidence and resilience. Show Notes: [2:21] - Dr. Williams explains how advocacy develops via gradual support, not full independence all at once. [4:57] - Hear how middle school is the key starting point for transferring responsibility from parents to students. [7:13] - Learn how gradual independence with structured, low-stakes practice can help families shift from management to support. [9:43] - Dr. Williams argues that working alongside others and practicing small help-seeking steps builds confidence and self-advocacy over time. [12:46] - Hear how respectful communication and accountability are essential skills for navigating school and real-world expectations. [13:48] - We discuss how executive functioning and self-advocacy require self-awareness, emotional regulation, and structured support. [15:59] - Dr. Williams discusses how students build lifelong independence by starting small and learning from failure. [18:16] - Structured shared work time with breaks and rewards supports focus while also preserving independence. [20:34] - Dr. Williams explains how using routines, rewards, and modeling can help students balance motivation and effort. [22:08] - We discuss how gradual independence, peer support, and early self-advocacy can improve academic success. [25:37] - Discover how early, individualized planning builds organization skills and reduces overload. [28:47] - Students should gradually take ownership of organization and time management using tools like calendars and reminders. [30:26] - Ultimately, gradual responsibility for daily tasks helps students build self-advocacy across home, school, and scheduling. [32:39] - Visual, personalized organization systems improve memory, prioritization, and overall task management. [34:02] - How can listeners reach Dr. Tara Williams?

If you're a high school senior heading to college, or already a freshman who's hitting some academic walls, this one is for you. There's a stretch of skills your teachers probably aren't teaching, your parents may not have had to learn the same way, and that nobody is sitting you down to walk you through. They're the skills that decide whether your first year of college feels manageable or completely impossible. Today's guest is Dr. Tara Williams, owner and founder of Innovative Collegiate Consultants, an organization that helps neurodivergent students with IEPs transition from high school to college and thrive in a neurotypical environment. Dr. Tara has been teaching for over 20 years and is currently a chemistry professor at College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California. She works with students every single day on the exact skills you're about to hear about. In this episode you'll hear what self advocacy actually looks like and why it's the single most important skill to start practicing now, why time blocking in 60 to 90 minute chunks works better than trying to white knuckle a four hour study session, the chunking method for breaking down a paper or huge assignment, why writing your own notes by hand makes the information stick, and the real reason office hours are your best friend in college (even if walking in feels intimidating). Plus the email habits that quietly separate students who thrive from the ones who fall behind in their first month. What self advocacy really means and why it's the single most important skill to practice in high school Why time blocking in 60 to 90 minute chunks works better than trying to study for four hours How body doubling and study groups help your brain focus even when nobody is forcing you to The chunking method for breaking down papers, essay questions, and huge assignments Why writing your own notes by hand makes information stick (and why highlighting everything doesn't) How to read before class so you actually understand what's happening when the professor lectures Why office hours are your best friend in college and what to walk in and say The professor relationships that turn into job and internship recommendations later How to manage email so you do not miss critical college transition information The calendar, planner, post it, or color coding system that actually works (the one you'll actually look at) Parents: This is one of the most actionable episodes for any parent of a high school student, especially if your teen has an IEP, has ADHD, or struggles with executive function. Dr. Tara breaks down exactly which habits are worth practicing before college, how to scaffold them in a way that builds independence (not dependence on you), and why the email and self advocacy gap is the single biggest blind spot most families don't see coming. Listen with your teen if you can. Then pick one habit you'll start practicing together this month. Ready to support your teen's transition to college, both academically and emotionally?

Matthew read poems at the first Year in Review spoken word event at The Linda, WAMC's Performing Arts Studio, on December 17, 2021. +++++ At the end of 2021, coming out of the pandemic, there were a lot of stories to tell. Albany Poets (soon to be merged with the Hudson Valley Writers Guild) invited eight local poets to perform on The Linda stage in front of their first live poetry show in over a year. The Year in Review was an incredible evening of poetry, art, and community. Matthew Klane was one of the poets who read his work at the event. Matthew is co-editor at Flim Forum Press. His books include Canyons (w/ James Belflower, Flimb Press 2016), Che (Stockport Flats 2013) and B (Stockport Flats 2008).

The jump from high school to college is bigger than most families realize. In this conversation, I talk with Dr. Tara Williams about what neurodivergent students really need as they prepare for college and why so many of them struggle in that transition. We unpack the shift from high school supports to college systems, where students are suddenly expected to manage accommodations, communicate with professors, understand FERPA, and advocate for themselves in a much more independent way. Tara explains why waiting until the summer before college can create unnecessary stress, and why self-advocacy has to start getting practiced much earlier. We also talk about executive functioning in real life, not as a buzzword, but as the day to day challenge of keeping up with emails, assignments, schedules, accommodations, and decisions. Tara shares practical tools for helping students build those skills, along with a powerful reminder that college success is not just about getting into the "right" major or pushing through what is not working. Sometimes the real win is helping a student find the path that actually fits how they learn, think, and thrive. Key Takeaways College accommodations work very differently from high school supports. Students are expected to initiate the process, submit documentation, schedule meetings, and communicate with professors themselves. The summer before college is already a high pressure time to begin. Families need to know that accommodation offices may book far in advance, and waiting too long can mean starting the semester without support. Self-advocacy needs to be practiced before college. Students can start by emailing teachers, asking about missed work, and learning how to communicate their needs while still in middle school or high school. Executive functioning support is not one skill. It includes calendars, planning, batching tasks, reminders, follow through, and figuring out what systems a student will actually use. Parents may need support building these systems too. Many adults are trying to help their child with tools they were never taught themselves. A good system has to fit the person. Google Calendars, Post-its, color coding, batching emails, and breaking tasks down can all work, but only if the student will actually use them. Technology makes sustained attention harder for everyone. Notifications, learning platforms, email, and constant digital access all increase cognitive load for students and adults alike. Accommodations should be available even if a student does not use them every time. Signing up matters. The student can decide when they need the support. Sometimes the issue is not just skill, but fit. A student may be in the wrong major, the wrong course path, or a program chosen for them rather than with them. College success is often about redirection, not failure. Finding a path that matches a student's real strengths and interests can change everything. About Dr. Tara Williams Dr. Tara Williams is the owner and founder of Innovative Collegiate Consultants, Inc. She earned her PhD in Synthetic Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Sussex in Falmer, United Kingdom, and is currently a tenured professor at College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California, where she has taught for the past twenty years. Since 2010, she has worked with neurodivergent students across the United States after noticing how many were struggling with the transition from K-12 support systems to college environments that require far more self-advocacy. Dr. Williams and her team specialize in executive functioning coaching with a strong academic focus, supporting students with accommodations, course planning, email and LMS management, housing, internships, jobs, and more. Her work helps neurodivergent and neurotypical students build confidence, advocate for themselves, and thrive in school and college.

We got on the mics ahead of Canyons to discuss the elite field, the amateur field, and all everything else about the weekend! We also get way too into clothes, crewing and Speedgoats. Enjoy!
In this week's edition of Singletrack News, we break down a major development in the UK trail running scene after Ourea Events - the organizers behind races like Dragon's Back, Cape Wrath Ultra, and the Northern Traverse - announced they are ceasing trading, putting several iconic races in jeopardy and leaving athletes uncertain about the future of some of the sport's most ambitious point-to-point events.We also discuss confusion surrounding UTMB's new broadcast partnership with FloSports. After speculation online that UTMB races could move behind a paywall, organizers clarified that the UTMB Live stream will remain free, with FloSports serving as a simulcast partner in the United States.Elsewhere, we dig into UTMB's 2026 live broadcast schedule, which includes 10 races across the World Series - but notably excludes Golden Ticket events like Chianti and Canyons.We also cover:UTMB CEO Fabrice Perrin raising concerns about “ambush marketing” in trail runningThe debut of the Big Alta 100K in Marin HeadlandsPreviewing the Chianti by UTMB Golden Ticket battleCourtney Dauwalter lining up at Tenerife Blue Trail as an early season testNike recruiting ultrarunners for a 15-week research residency at the Nike Sports Research LabAnd our content picks of the week, including a conversation between Harry Styles and Haruki Murakami on how running fuels creativityPartners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Janji - premium trail running apparelKodiak Cakes - my favorite oatmeal and pancakes Support the show
We stocked up on neck floaties before this great episode! The main topic was a discussion of the constrained total energy expenditure model, which argues that physical activity will often have a smaller impact on energy expenditure than predicted. We do an interdisciplinary zoom-out to talk about how it relates to the research on low energy availability and within-day deficits. The conclusion: fueling the fire is key to prevent the fire from going cold.We also have an exciting update from the US Half Marathon Champs! People always deserve love and compassion. But systems respond to pressure.And this one was full of amazing topics! Other topics: our hot tub experiment continues (DO NOT DO THIS), strange nervous system responses to uphill treadmill workouts, the Canyons 100k, why we love the LA Marathon giving an option to stop at 18 miles and receive a finisher's medal, a rant about people who are angry about “participation trophies,” what runners can learn from cyclists about pre-race training, colon health for runners, training race timing and approach, worries about outdoor risks when running, and lots more.Let's stock up on some big boss meals and GET SOME.

In this week's edition of Singletrack News, Kilian Jornet announces he'll attempt the Western States–UTMB double in 2026, reviving a strategy some thought was fading from elite playbooks. We also examine Ironman's decision to ban in-race content creation, including smart glasses, GoPros, and phones. Is this about safety, competitive fairness, or the beginning of a broader shift in endurance sports culture? Could trail running follow?Elsewhere, we break down Abby Levine's analysis of the Western States 2026 field - including the surprising stat about back-to-back women's champions, the depth emerging from Golden Ticket races like Black Canyon and CCC, and what still remains up for grabs at Chianti and Canyons.Plus:Chuckanut announces a first-ever livestream in partnership with Mountain OutpostTransgrancanaria previewNike ACG's experimental “smallest backyard ultra” activation in MilanITRA's 2025 Women in Trail Running participation reportAravaipa launches The Cutoff film tourUTMB postpones its Puerto Vallarta event following regional unrestPartners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next order (https://www.precisionhydration.com/planner/?utm_source=partner&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=singletrack)Norda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever made (https://nordarun.com/)Raide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains (https://raideresearch.com/singletrack)Janji - premium trail running apparel (https://janji.com/pages/singletrack)Support the show

Natalie's Dedication:To The Kratt Brothers: Thank you for teaching me to love all animals and enjoy their company from a young age.Episode Description:In Part 2 of our conversation about Caprock Canyons State Park, Natalie takes us deeper into the spirit of the park, what visitors feel when they first see the canyon walls, how she would define Caprock in just three words, and why this landscape leaves such a lasting impression.We spend time with the story of the Texas State Bison Herd, exploring how it came to Caprock, what makes it unique, and what daily herd management looks like behind the scenes. Natalie shares how staff balance visitor access with safety, the challenges the herd faces from drought and habitat pressures, and the powerful symbolism the bison hold for the park and for Texas itself, along with a few memorable moments that only come from working this closely with wildlife.The conversation then moves onto Caprock's trails and terrain, from the park's extensive trail system and the historic Caprock Canyons Trailway to favorite overlooks, hidden gems, and recommendations for both first-time visitors and experienced hikers. We also cover trail safety, weather awareness, dog-friendly options, camping opportunities, and what guests should know before heading out into this rugged Panhandle environment.We close by looking at conservation, how human impact affect Caprock, what the park is doing to protect its ecosystems, and the role visitors play in preserving this place for future generations. This episode is a grounded, thoughtful look at a park defined by resilience, stewardship, and wide-open space.Part 2 of 2 — available now on Trailblazing Texas Podcast!
Natalie's Dedication:To my kids: Thank you for showing me that being a creepy crawly loving, strange, awkward, opinionated, and weird person makes a good mom, and it makes creature loving conscious kids.Episode Description: Caprock Canyons State Park (Part 1 of 2)I've said it quietly before… but in this episode, I finally say it out loud. Caprock Canyons State Park is my absolute favorite Texas State Park, and this conversation explains why.In Part 1 of this two-part series, I sit down with Interpretive Ranger Natalie, who knows Caprock from the inside out. We start with her journey into Texas Parks & Wildlife, what sparked their career, what led them to this rugged corner of the Panhandle, and how Caprock quickly becomes more than “just an assignment”.We talk about first impressions and the moments that stop people in their tracks, the scale of the canyons, the silence, the unexpected beauty, and why Caprock feels so different from anywhere else in Texas. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at what a typical day looks like for park staff.This is a personal one for me. If you've ever stood on the rim at Caprock, felt the wind cut through the canyon, or locked eyes with a bison on the trail, you'll understand.Part 2 drops next, where we go even deeper into trails, wildlife, visitor tips, and what makes Caprock a place people keep coming back to.
Send us a textA young ultra runner with a mountain kid heart and a pro's mindset—Coleman Cragun brings the heat. We dig into how he went from SUU walk-on to stacking top finishes at Canyons, Broken Arrow, Speedgoat, and Mammoth in his first year of ultras, and how mentorship from trail legend Hayden Hawks is shaping every decision. The honesty of their training partnership, from blunt fitness assessments to choosing the hardest race fields, has helped Coleman skip the usual trial-and-error and focus on the skills that actually win races.Black Canyon 100K is the target, and Coleman breaks down the pillars of his prep: specificity on fast desert singletrack, back-to-back long runs, sweat testing to dial sodium and fluids, and the art of not leading when the opening miles go hot. He shares how he'll choose between carbon and non-carbon shoes, why pacing by effort and heart rate matters when Bumble Bee changes the race, and how he structures 5,000-calorie days to stay durable in heavy blocks. The goal is simple and bold: keep the leaders in sight, stay patient, and make a real run at a golden ticket to Western States.We also look ahead to a season that may pivot on one result. If he punches a ticket, Western States becomes the centerpiece—with OCC as the UTMB-week balance. If not, CCC offers a bigger Alpine canvas. Coleman's excited by Sierre-Zinal for speed, by Cedar City's high-low training ecosystem, and by the sport's growing professionalism that could one day let him run full time. He's coaching, refining, and choosing the hard line: race the best, learn fast, and build a name the right way.If you're into trail running, heat management, fueling strategy, Western States lore, or the mentor-mentee dynamic shaping the next generation, you'll love this one. Subscribe, share it with a friend who lives for golden ticket drama, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show.Follow Coleman on IG - @coleman_cragunFollow James on IG - @jameslauriello Follow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_pod
Today we welcome the #2 Trail Runners of the Year, Ruth Croft of New Zealand and Francesco Puppi of Italy. We start with Ruth who is unquestionably one of the best to ever do it. This season, she started with a huge victory at Tarawera, another at the MaXi Race 60k, all building towards UTMB where she won in what felt like a flawlessly executed performance. In doing so, Ruth became only the second person to win all three of the UTMB world final events, showing her career-long consistency and range across distances. Francesco Puppi posted the best season of his career. Nine races with six victories including impressive wins at both the Canyons 100k in April and CCC in August — the two best 100k performances of the year in the only to 100k races of his career. This episode is part of Freetrail's annual Trail Runner of the Year Rollout -- an opportunity to reflect on the 2025 season and celebrate the athletes who performed the best according to the global trail running community.

Es geht nach Samegrelo – in eine faszinierende Region Westgeorgiens. Samegrelo ist ein Landstrich, in dem die antike Geschichte nicht nur gelesen, sondern gelebt wird! Hier verschmelzen atemberaubende Landschaften – von malerischen Canyons und majestätischen Wasserfällen – mit unwahrscheinlichen lebendigen Traditionen. Bei ihrer Reise durch Samegrelo hat Tatjana Montik ein georgisches Troja und eine Natur-Therme am Techuri-Fluss entdeckt, in einem Ethno-Dorf über die Kunst des Tamada (Tischspruchführers) gelernt, mit den Einheimischen mingelische Köstlichkeiten gekocht und dabei über die unwahrscheinlichsten Bräuche erfahren. In Samegrelo wird ein Gast in einer herzlichen Umarmung empfangen! Samegrelo ist kein Reiseziel. Samegrelo ist ein Erlebnis!
Send us a textA road racer with big engine and bigger grit, Makena Morley decided to test the mountains—and then turned a curious experiment into a statement season. We go all the way back to Maui and Montana, through a high-pressure collegiate career at Colorado, and into the realities of turning pro during Covid. Then the pivot: why ASICS' support opened the door to trails, how Bozeman and Montana State became her training backbone, and what it took to blend threshold speed with the chaos of technical terrain.Makena breaks down the moment Kodiak nearly unraveled—a missed turn, minutes lost, and a mental reset from chasing time to hunting the win. She explains how trail pacing lives in effort, not pace; how VKs mimic the misery of a 5K at altitude; and why nutrition and hydration need to be tighter once you're racing beyond marathon duration. We talk SIS gels, Skratch Superfuel, cramp control, and keeping heart rate near low threshold to ride the up-down rhythm without detonating. She also shares self-coaching insights: writing four-month blocks, moving workouts when the body says no, and using heart rate as a guardrail rather than a governor.Looking forward, we map a smart, exciting calendar: half marathons to sharpen, runnable 50Ks like Canyons to leverage road speed, and a technical progression toward OCC in Chamonix. Golden Trail and Cirque Series sit on the radar as skill-building playgrounds, tempered by timing and travel. The theme running through it all is joy—how switching surfaces revived hunger, built durability, and made big goals feel possible again.If this story fires you up, hit follow, share the episode with a friend who needs a nudge to try something new, and leave a quick review so more athletes can find the show.Follow Makena on IG - @makena_morleyCheck out Ultimate Direction !Use code steepstuffpod for 25% off ultimatedirection.comDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Love, lust, and heartbreak are the secret soundtrack of the LA canyons. In this episode of My Rock Moment we welcome Emmeline Summerton of Instagram's Lost Canyons LA, a historian of the LA Canyons and former writer of the New Topanga Times. Together we trace that soundtrack through eight songs — uncovering the romance, the messiness and the broken hearts behind the lyrics. We start with “Guinnevere,” David Crosby's mysterious song inspired by 3 women — Christine Hinton, Joni Mitchell, and the surprising third muse, “Delta Lady” — Leon Russell's ode to Rita Coolidge and the wild, studio-to-road romance that sent them straight into Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs tour. Then we move to the Mamas & the Papas' “Go Where You Wanna Go,” a sunny single born from the band's very messy affairs. From there: “Our House,” Graham Nash's tiny, perfect snapshot of life with Joni Mitchell in Laurel Canyon — ordinary moments made into a classic. Then Joni's own “All I Want' about her relationship with James Taylor. We'll also unpack “Leather and Lace,” the duet that reunited Stevie Nicks and Don Henley after a broken romance and leer jet flirtations; “Faithless Love,” J.D. Souther's devastating ballad given wings by Linda Ronstadt during their fraught romance and end with Neil Young's "A Man Needs a Maid" off of Harvest. This is a tour of romance and ruin, tenderness and betrayal — the songs that turned private heartbreak into something the rest of us could sing along to. We'll share the stories behind each track and the music that made the canyons heartbreak famous.

Canyons, whether large or small, can host a spectacular variety of birds! Consider Swakane Canyon, in central Washington State. It cuts west from the Columbia River into the Entiat Mountains for nine miles, while gaining nearly 3,000 feet. Steep slopes wall in the canyon floor, several hundred yards wide. A slender creek runs through the canyon, nurturing shrubs like blue elderberry. The plant provides nesting cover for Bullock's Orioles and other birds in summer, and masses of tiny fruit to migrating birds in September. And each successive habitat embraces a new mix of birds and other wildlife.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
