Thank you to the DO BIG THINGS tribe! I’ve got a couple of really cool guests for you for episode #68. Kyla Claudell and Reid Delman are the race directors for Gemini Adventures here in Colorado.

I’ve got a fantastic guest for you today. Jon Bass is a guy that I go back with almost 30 years. I’ve known him forever. I used to party with him back in the day and he is an artist in every sense of the word. He does beautiful, psychedelic tattoo work and you can find him on the Gram @jonbass1. If you like artwork or are into tattoos, do yourself a favor and stop what you’re doing and look at his Instagram and get ready to have your wig pushed back. The best tattoos I have are from his hand. He and

2021/03/02

Thank you for dropping in! I’ve got a great guest for you today, with an incredible story. He’s a super stud adventure athlete that gets outside all the time and is super fit and healthy. I guess that’s what makes his story so incredibly mind blowing. On January 6th of this year, he entered an easy little ski mountaineering race. At least it was easy by his standards. He jumped into the race, last minute and ten minutes into the race, he had a cardiac arrest. Erik Sanders was without a pulse for 40

Thank you for tuning in. This podcast is 1 year old today! I have a great guest lined up for you. Michael McKnight is an ultrarunner and an elite one at that. He has won the triple crown of 200 milers twice. He is really into the low carb, high fat diet and it’s an extremely effective strategy he employs towards his ultramarathons. I had a lot of questions about his diet and how and why he got into it. He holds the fastest known time on the Colorado Trail which he just set in 2020. He ran 100

Hector Rodriguez isn't afraid to DO BIG THINGS!

2021/01/12

After a lifetime as a competitive athlete, Kyle Coon is taking on his toughest challenge yet — to compete in the 2021 Paralympics in Tokyo as a blind triathlete. I had so many questions for him. How does someone who is completely blind compete in a triathlon? Well, Kyle is the man to talk to. He’s completed marathons, Ironmans, the RAAM (The Race across America) and many others. While he isn’t the first blind person to climb a mountain, run a marathon or compete in a triathlon, his goal is to be one

Avery Collins is a professional ultra runner out of Silverton, Colorado. He's done some of the biggest and baddest races on planet earth and he isn't slowing down. In fact, he's flying high! I distinctly remember when he came onto the ultrarunning scene. He said he was going to do all of these audacious things in the years to come and one by one, he did them all. He’s not just your run of the mill ultrarunner either. He thinks outside the box and that’s what I love about him. Give it up for my

#54 Celebrating DFL with Jon Beard

2020/12/08

It's better to be DFL at an ultramarathon than not finishing at all. After all, it's not about what place you come in when you're running a hundred mile race. It's about FINISHING! This week we are celebrating the folks who are out on the course longer than anyone. The folks who are fighting cutoff times every step of the way. The folks who aren't afraid to come in last place. Last place is still a finish and I respect it as much or maybe more than the winners. My guest today, Jon Beard, has
