Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/11/30

Although this is not part of the podcast series, we recorded Tim's HOTS/Vol State Info call for those who couldn't make it. It's very long as there were a lot of veterans on the call so I divided it into 2 parts. This is part 2

Episode #35 - Gina Kimrey

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/11/20

Everyone wanted this interview with Gina because of 2024 HOTS but Gina wanted to talk about Vol State first. And since she was one of two people who saved my race in 2023, I definitely wanted to have her on the show. She is funny and full of life and I am sure you're going to love listening to her.

Episode: 34 - PK Jebbia-Klenowski

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/11/13

Great to publish this just before his birthday on the 17th! Most of us know PK as he always lays himself and his emotions open on our Facebook page. I was captivated as he proceeds to tell us the heartbreaking story behind his Vol State attempts and achievements. He goes into depth about the people that matter to him as well. After all this is "All about the people".

Episode #33 - Julie Jordan and Trish Stone

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/11/06

We all know that 2024 Vol State was the last year with crews allowed. These two people explain what it's like to start screwed and then eventually switch - either to crewed status or being crewed. Trish also has what I consider the most profound story about what her return to Vol State taught her. It's pretty captivating and it was fun to have both of them on the show.

Episode #30 - Brian Purcell

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/10/16

Brian fits my definition of a "Laz Addict" if I ever met one. He's done all the races - HOTS, Vol State and Third Circle! Of course, there are many more races in his resume, but we focus on the Laz journey runs. He offers so many tips, even I had to listen again and hurry to scribble them down. He also has some insights into crewing as he crewed his wife at Vol State in 2024. I know you'll love this one.

Episode #29 - Nancy Barber

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/10/09

Nancy Barber was one of two people who saved my race in 2023 and she began the saving on day 1 at about mile 23! She has many stories of her own and you should be able to pick up a copy of her new book: Vol State 500K: A Journey Through Madness, Blurring the Lines of American Division. Her favorite descriptor of her running/hiking behavior is "lolly-gagging". Listen to find out how she mastered that in 2023.

Episode #28 - Addison Hendricks

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/10/02

This up and coming young man has definitely risen to the top in 2024. Although there are several audio glitches since Addison had to do the interview at a rest stop while he's on the road, I think you'll enjoy listening to his enthusiasm and hearing about his winning races.

Episode #26 - Mark and Beth Budden

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/09/18

This is the first running couple we've featured - both on here together. If you know Mark and Beth, then you are familiar with "we're never doing this again" echoing in the background as they toe the start line for the next "Torture By Laz". It was so much fun listening to how they started running ultras and how they do them together. I think you'll enjoy this a lot.

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/09/11

This woman never stops smiling and if you listen to her, she apparently never stops talking too! Her energy is beyond compare and I was so thrilled to have her talk with me for almost and hour and a half. Her stories of Vol State outshine those of any others we've listened to yet.

Behind every successful man is a good woman but in this case, it's neck and neck. Vicky Halsey shares her triumph from "if Jim can do this, maybe I can too" to "I can do this alone". Vicky gives us great tips and stories to help lead us into the fall season. Even though Vol State 2025 is months away, the excitement NEVER goes away!

Episode #23 - Kara Teichroew

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/08/28

Kara has a surprise discussion about her 2025 race but that's at the end so you have to listen to the whole thing. It will definitely be worth it because she shows how she overcame near hypothermia (yes, that can happen even in July so don't be smug), switching to crewed as she kept her primary goal in mind - reaching the rock. Full of wisdom and gritty stories, Kara earned her mashed potatoes (teasing you).

Episode #22 - Paul Heckert (The "Warden")

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/08/21

What a legend. Paul Heckert is well known throughout the running (and especially the ultra) community. His is definitely a Vol State master and one to whom I owe a great deal since he saved my race in 2021! That's when he got the nickname "The Warden" because he adopted that role so readily in keeping me trudging over the miles to reach the Rock. I owe Paul a great deal. Enjoy your listen!

Episode #20 - Dave Jones

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/08/07

This man made me laugh more than anyone ever has so kudos to him. He has such great info and even though I say that every week, it's even more evident when you listen to his enthusiasm. You can get so much energy just from your time with him even if you've never met him. If I listened to any audio during Vol State, this would be the thing I played over and over again. Not a word is wasted airwaves! He's also an amazing trauma therapist with two sites you should visit:

Episode #19 - Tim Hardy

Vol State: It"s All About the People ·

2024/07/31

This man has done it all - and done it all many times over. Not only did he serve our country (for which I am extremely appreciative) but he's served the ultra community as well, always giving back. Get some hard core advice from a very special guy!
