    🎧 Episode 14: The One Where No One Cares Anymore
    In this episode, Nick and Jarett sit down to explore a quiet truth behind endurance running—what happens when no one claps anymore? We talk about the drive for external validation, the shift in family dynamics after your tenth ultra, and the deeper reasons some runners keep signing up for longer, harder, more painful efforts. Is it self-growth? Is it escape? Or is it unresolved pain we haven’t fully faced? This isn’t a training episode. It’s a heart check. And maybe a little therapy session on the mic.

    The One Where We Walk Before We Run
    In this episode, we sit down with Tyson Black—a laid-back, hard-working trail runner from Southeast Tennessee who just last year decided to stop making excuses and start walking. Fast forward a few months, and he’s knocking out 50Ks and 50 milers with oatmeal creme pies in hand (and sometimes on his face).
    We talk about what it’s like to go from walking to ultramarathons in under a year, how self-talk keeps him moving through the pain cave, and why most people underestimate the power of slow, steady, stubborn progress. Tyson gets real about juggling life, family, and the grind, and shares the mindset that’s helping him cross the entire state of Tennessee on foot.
    From ripped shirts at finish lines to UTMB dreams, this one’s full of grit, growth, and straight-up heart.

    The One Where He Ran Across Utah

    Mason Wright—aka The Buff Runner—is back on the podcast after doing the unthinkable: running 421 miles across the entire state of Utah. In this episode, we break down the run mile by mile, pain cave by pain cave, from the early injury scare to the final steps across state lines.
    Mason opens up about the mental game behind multi-day suffering, what surprised him most out there in the desert, and why he still thinks the best is yet to come. We talk fuel (spoiler: it’s not all clean eating), gear, the dark moments, the spiritual highs, and what it's like to carry momentum into planning a transcontinental run across the U.S.
    This is a deep dive into what it takes—not just to start something big—but to finish it.

    The One Where We Get Sweaty
    In this episode, we sit down with Joseph Proctor, aka Apache Joe—a husband, father of three, and a former high school and college runner who took a 23-year detour through the chaos of mental health struggles before lacing up again. What brought him back? Nose breathing, miles in the dark, and something deeper that couldn’t be ignored.
    We dive into Joe’s raw and honest journey: the battle back to running, the rituals that ground him, and the philosophy behind doing hard things—sweaty things—with purpose. This is one of those conversations that’ll stick with you long after your run is over.
    Whether you're just getting started, burned out, or running toward something you can’t quite name, this one's for you. Listen in, get inspired, and remember: it's okay to get weird with it.

    Episode 10 – The One Where Everyone Wears Hokas
    This week, Nick and Jarett dive headfirst into one of the most lopsided questions in endurance sports: why are ultra runners broke while pro athletes in other sports cash seven-figure checks for playing less than three hours a week? We break down the OC Marathon results, highlight the early buzz around Cocodona 250, and explore whether increasing prize money and sponsorships would help or hurt the raw, community-driven soul of ultra running. Is more money the missing piece? Or would it turn mountain grit into a corporate circus?
