This past weekend I was in Seattle, Washington with our partners at Brooks Running. It was an incredible weekend, and they introduced me to a few of their sponsored athletes who were gearing up for a big competition. While the audio-circumstances weren't great for recording an interview, I was able to witness one of their pre-race track workouts. During the workout, I asked Colleen Bryant, one of Brooks' sponsored athletes to hold my podcast recorder as she ran a lap around the 400 meter track. So

Last week, we had the pleasure of joining our new sponsor, TIAA Bank in Vail Colorado for the GoPro Mountain Games. It was an incredible weekend all around. We did some trail running, mud running, yoga and climbing. We got to watch whitewater kayaking, slackline and even doggie long jumping! By far, though, the highlight for me was getting to hang with one of our favorite bands, Playing for Change. Playing for Change is an incredible organization that aims to bring people together through music

2018/03/22

Team, two weeks ago, I had the honor of walking with Diana Nyad and her partner Bonnie Stoll in Los Angeles. Many of you know Diana Nyad as the incredible long-distance swimmer who became the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida– at the age of 64! To say this was a “long-distance” swim is like saying that a summiting Mt. Everest is a long walk. It's a death-defying expedition. Diana encountered sharks, deadly jelly fish, Gulf Stream current and more over 110.86 miles! And now she's taking

Meb Keflezghi: Grit and Grace

Team, in December I had the distinct honor of walking with THE Meb Keflezghi in Austin, Texas. Few people have accomplished as much as Meb has– either in sports, or any field. Even fewer people have transcended their own accomplishments to inspire millions the way Meb has. After escaping a war-torn Eritrea as a child, Meb became a four time NCAA champion, a three time Olympian, and the only person to win the New York City Marathon, the Boston Marathon and an Olympic Medal. But, aside from being

Justine Galloway: Conquering the NYC Marathon Backwards!

The Extra Mile - The Official Charity Miles Podcast ·

2017/11/24

Team, a few weeks ago, I had the honor of running the NYC Marathon as a guide for a young woman named Justine Galloway who ran the entire race backwards. Yes, backwards! Justine has a rare disorder called runner's dystonia, which impairs her ability to run forwards. But since she loves running so much– she ran D1 for Rutgers University, and was a very accomplished marathoner– she taught herself to run backwards! This interview is recorded on Staten Island, morning of the NYC Marathon, less than an

Team, when I was in Squaw Valley for the Spartan World Championships, I had the honor of meeting Kristen Ulmer who, for 12 consecutive years, was the world's top female big mountain extreme skiier. (My dream job!) From Wikipedia: Ulmer was on the US Ski Team for moguls in 1991. She also starred in over 20 ski movies, and was called by the ski media the best woman big mountain extreme skier in the world from 1990-2001. In 1997 Ulmer was also voted in a Powder Magazine ski industry survey to be the

In this episode, I walk with Miguel Lara and Mickey Mahaffey in Boston, Massachusetts. Miguel Lara is a Tarahumaran ultramarathon champion. If you've read Born to Run, then you'll remember that the Tarahumara are a tribe that lives in the Copper Canyons of Mexico. They are some of the best ultramarathoners in the world– because walking and running long distances (barefoot) is just a way of life for them. And Miguel is one of the best of the best. Mickey Mahaffey is an American who has been

In this episode, I run with Nir Eyal on the Embarcadero in San Francisco. Nir is one of the most sought after minds in Silicon Valley for his work at the intersection of technology and psychology, principally with regards to his work on habit formation. Nir literally wrote the book on habit formation. His book, Hooked, is the primer that all tech companies (including us) use in trying to make their products more habit forming.

2017/08/01

In this is a special and very important interview, I walk with Julia Vitarello in Boulder, Colorado. Julia is fighting a fight that none of us would ever want to fight. Her young daughter Mila has Batten Disease, a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disease. It is especially brutal because it is so rare that Julia and her family have almost nobody to turn to for help. But they have a ray of hope because, through Julia's tireless efforts, she was able to get a clinical trial approved through Harvard

This episode is a long run, 8 miles with U.S. Congresswoman, Kyrsten Sinema. I recorded this interview back in January, just two days after Donald Trump's inauguration. I actually never intended to release it. Kyrsten is a good friend and was visiting New York. And I just wanted to test out my new podcast recorder and practice interviewing someone.
