Arminda, Di$count, Nimbus, and Trason prepare for the final battle against Grogmire. They must reunite Telderon, the slaying sword, and remove it from Grogmire's head at the exact same time as Cloudy removes it in the astral plane. Will our four-legged friends triumph? Find out now.
Di$count, Arminda, Nimbus and... Trason head into the cave of the purple dragon. Armed with the knowledge of how to defeat it, and heavy hearts knowing Cloudy may be trapped in the Astral plane forever, but before they can take on their final challenge they must get past some Familiar Faces.
As Arminda lets loose and Nimbus enjoys his new kinship with his wolf side, Trason uses his new empath abilities to aid Di$count and Cloudy accept their roles as true heroes. Di$count manages to separate the astral half of the hilt from the physical, making the astral form of Telderron whole and ready to remove from Grogmire's psyche, so the fate of who stays behind lies between Nimbus and Cloudy.
As Nimbus, Cloudy, and Trason try to come to Discount's aid in accepting his responsibility as a true hero, they are linked with Grogmire's mind and learn of The Purple Dragon's backstory and his hidden connections to Arminda and Telderron.
***Trigger Warning: Attempted Suicide and Intense Action*** As Di$count tests out their shapeshifting, Nimbus and Arminda begin losing control of their own powers. The familiars scale up a treahcerous volcano where they are confronted by Grogmire, The Purple Dragon, and his newest pawn, Trason. Nimbus attempts to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to save everyone, but his friends won't let him go so easily.
While trying to find the Legendary Heroes, one of which is his father, Trason unwittily gathers our four Animal Adventures
On this OLSC Spotlight Podcast, we chat with Trason Merritt from OLSC Colorado Springs. Trason talks about the humble beginnings as well as the rapid growth of the group that became official very recently.
Ann Trason (born August 30, 1960) is an American ultramarathon runner from Auburn, California. She has broken twenty world records during her career. Trason's ultra career began when she entered the 1985 American River 50 Miler at age 24 and both won and set a course record. She returned 8 years later and dropped her time by an hour to establish the 6:09 female course record that still stands.Trason did not finish her first two times trying to run the Western States 100; in 1987 she dropped out due to knee problems and in 1988, near the finish line, from dehydration. She finished and won it in 1989. She has won Western States 14 times in all, most recently in 2003. She held the women's division course record for 18 years (17:37:51, set in 1994) until it was broken by Ellie Greenwood in 2012.

Every runner has a mentor. Dan Williams is a mentor for more people than he realizes. Imagine your training partner is Ann Trason, as you work through strategies to negotiate a 100 Miles through heat, hills and miscellaneous chaos. After countless miles, mishaps and success you end up with some serious trail knowledge. Now imagine sitting down and talking to them. One wearing a 2000 mile silver buckle and the other, owner of a a-one-of-a-kind 1000 Mile silver buckle converted by WS into a bracelet. Dan and Ann drop some of this knowledge on this podcast. This is one for the archives. Thank you Dan and Ann! Special co-hosts Sally McRae and Ann Thilges.
We start with the premise, "There must be more to this, it can't be just exercise." We hear takes from guests Ann, Zach, Mike and Karis. We love to run. What else do we love about our sport?
