Circle of Hell Run (COHR), Chef Boyardee, and Sweat Salt Wisdom with Bryce BrooksI'm joined by the undisputed king of dry-heat suffering, Bryce Brooks. He's now a three-time champion of the infamous Circle of Hell Run—a 3-hour looped sufferfest in Phoenix held during the hottest part of the hottest day of the year. We dig into exactly how to win a heat race with 200 pounds of ice, salt pills by the fistful, and ice bandana swaps that would make an F1 pit crew jealous.Follow Bryce on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/b_ricebrooksWe also dive deep into Bryce's work behind the scenes at Aravaipa, his thoughts on live-streaming gimmicks vs performance, creative pacer rules, and what's next for the ever-expanding race organization. From blacked-out cars with no AC to ravioli-fueled recoveries, this one is part heat survival guide, part comedy, part ode to the ultrarunning grind. My favorite story is the time met Jamil Coury and Courtney Dauwalter at Cocodona 250! Buckle up. It's a dry heat, but the content is fire.Presented by Janji https://janji.com/Garage Grown Gear https://www.garagegrowngear.com/CS Coffee https://www.csinstant.coffee/Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Circle of Hell Run03:07 Winning Strategies and Crew Dynamics06:04 Race Strategy and Managing Heat08:59 Nutrition and Hydration in Extreme Conditions11:54 The Atmosphere and Community of the Race15:05 Personal Reflections and Future Aspirations24:05 Racing and Content Creation Challenges26:55 Capturing the Highlights of Ultra Races31:02 The Role of Gimmicks in Racing35:44 Jamil's Unique Approach to Racing and Content38:59 Aerovipa's Growth and Event Expansion42:26 Underrated Events and the Crown King Scramble44:41 The Rise of Cocodona and Its Popularity45:20 Cocodona's Rich History and Diverse Biomes46:20 Evolution of the Live Stream Experience47:23 First Encounters and Memorable Moments47:57 The Wild Ride of the First Year48:44 Hitchhiking Adventures and Unexpected Encounters51:31 Post-Race Reflections and Decisions54:54 Transitioning to a New Career Path57:03 Upcoming Races and Future Plans58:48 Crew Dynamics and Race Strategies01:00:39 Debating Pacer Policies in Ultra RacesSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

Send us a textIn previous episodes, we've chatted with some young runners who have taken on ultramarathons like the Leadville Trail 100, something that was unheard of in the ancient days when I began in the sport. While it's become less rare to see this, it's now been taken up a notch. Meet the Chisholm family of Salem, NH. Brothers Ben, Brody, Elliott, and Asher all play hockey, with the three eldest at one time playing on the same line together on their high school team. Led by their parents, the boys started off climbing in New Hampshire's White Mountains, eventually summitting all of its 48 4000-foot peaks, which is no joke in difficulty. This evolved to the family next through-hiking the entire Appalachian Trail, then the Pacific Crest Trail, and the Continental Divide Trail, each of which are thousands of miles long and take months to complete, and definitely at times challenged the limits of family togetherness. While later hiking the Arizona Trail, they learned about this thing called ultramarathoning and on a whim entered the Elden Crest 38-miler, in which second-oldest son Brody led the family to the finish line in fifth-place overall. So the next logical step of course was to return to Arizona to run the 2024 Cocodona 250. Of course. Since races like this include large swaths of hiking, the family leaned heavily on their strong through-hiking skills, a theory that bore fruit. Brody, 17 at the time, boldly had his sights on setting a course record despite having had no prior ultra experience longer than 38 miles, but has 4:30 mile speed on the track, so he could add that running ability to the mix. He learned a lot of ultramarathoning lessons, especially regarding fueling, but still astoundingly finished 12th in 75:42:42, a pace of 18:11 per mile for more than 250 miles. Meanwhile, 18-year-old brother Ben finished 34th in 87:01:50 despite battling lack of sleep and hallucinations, and mom Jennie finished as well in 103:58:03 while overcoming tibial stress fractures. Round two for the family was this year as 16-year-old Elliott attempted to usurp Brody's record as the youngest-ever Cocodona finisher, but a sickness felled his chance, and Brody also DNF'd. However, Jennie chopped more than 14 hours off of her previous time and placed as the 7th female finisher. So Elliott took on a new challenge the day before we recorded this and ran the Back Cove Backyard Ultra in Portland, ME, where he impressively ran 121 miles, running another 4.16-mile loop at the start of every hour for 29 hours, the third-most in the last-man-standing event. With Jennie and the three oldest boys of this super nice family all crammed onto a couch together for this really fun chat, we cover how they logistically pull all of this off with schoolwork and teen life in general, as well as dealing with those who have this idea that teenage boys shouldn't take on epic challenges like they have. I think anyone who has doubts will walk away with other ideas after listening to them.The familyInstagram @thefieldtrip_5Jennie ChisholmInstagram @_jenniechisholmBen ChisholmInstagram @benchisholm_7Brody ChisholmInstagram @brody.chisholmElliott ChisholmInstagram @elliott.chisholmBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signupSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I f

In this episode of The Free Outside Show, I'm diving into something that might sound silly at first—being a fan. Whether it's the NFL, NBA playoffs, Western States, or obsessively refreshing the live tracker at Cocodona, I argue that being a fan matters. It builds community, creates connection, and honestly, just makes life more fun. So this is a passionate, slightly ranty defense of why you should let yourself care—about your favorite athletes, races, and even trail drama.Along the way, I talk Montana Meltdown (our September race), show off my Janji shorts, and spiral into a few tangents about public lands, nationalism, and the shocking lack of trail running trash talk. This one's for the people who hit refresh on UltraSignup for fun.Also—I might be temporarily homeless by the time this drops. So please like, share, and maybe mail me a tent.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Free Outside Show01:12 In Defense of Being a Fan03:12 The Importance of Community in Sports06:00 Embracing Fandom in Ultra Sports10:16 The Power of Being a Fan12:12 Conclusion and Community EngagementSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

I'm turning this into unfinished business.”In this episode, Troy Meadows talks with Lindsey Dwyer—a full-time middle school PE teacher and elite ultra-runner who's quietly been stacking some seriously impressive performances on the trails. Lindsey recently finished second at the 2025 Cocodona 250, clocking a time of 79 hours and 35 minutes while battling through a respiratory issue that made breathing, let alone running, feel nearly impossible. Troy and Lindsey dive into how she managed to keep pushing through the low moments of that race, how she juggles 100-mile training weeks with her responsibilities in the classroom, and why she's heading back to UTMB with a big goal and even bigger fire. They talk about the importance of community, mental grit, and showing up fully in both running and life—even when things aren't going your way. From major podiums like Brazos Bend and Miwok to the day-in, day-out grind of teaching and training, Lindsey brings a grounded, inspiring energy to everything she does. Whether you're chasing your first ultra or eyeing 200+ milers, this conversation reminds us what's possible when passion meets perseverance.Motivational TakeawaysEmbracing adversity: Lindsey talks about pushing through pain and illness during Cocodona, finding grit when moments get dark.Smart training: balancing high mileage with recovery, especially juggling teaching responsibilities.Big‑picture mindset: viewing setback as setup — she's targeting UTMB this year and looking to return to Cocodona stronger than ever.Relevant LinksIG: @linzdwyerTrail Runner Mag post celebrating her Cocodona resultPartner Links: Janji - Janji.comA big shoutout to our sponsor, Janji!

In this special episode, we sit down with Dan Green and John Baldwin to unpack their unforgettable experiences at the 2025 Western States 100. Dan placed 16th overall just six weeks after winning Cocodona 250, running with heart and nothing to lose. John fulfilled a decade-long dream with a sub-24-hour finish, making the most of his hard-earned entry with his crew by his side.We talk heat, hydration, high country, shoe swaps, low points, and that magical finish on the Placer High track. Their crews—Logan Kirby, Jack Penn, Bob Luther, and Matt Young—also share behind-the-scenes moments, crewing chaos, and lessons learned.Whether you're a seasoned ultrarunner or just love a good story of perseverance, this one's for you.

Today on The Free Outside Podcast, I'm joined by the legendary Cam Hanes—bowhunter, ultrarunner, lifter of heavy things, and yes, friend of Joe Rogan. We dive into everything from Courtney Dauwalter's mountain mindset to how Disneyland became a tactical hunting joke with a laser pointer (thanks, Joe).Cam shares his thoughts on the growing influencer side of trail running, Western States carnage, public lands politics, and what he really thinks about ultrarunning's obsession with science and splits. We talk about grit, quitting, suffering, and why lifting weights is somehow less cool than ultrarunning. Plus: what hunters and trail runners can learn from each other, and why Cam still calls himself an outsider in this space.If you're into raw takes, wild stories, and the occasional Keep Hoeing joke—this one's for you. From the Taylor Swift of Ultrarunning, meet Cam Hanes!
