FKT Podcast

This week we’re heading to the Show Me state where Tim Beissinger set the unsupported FKT on the 230 mile long Ozark Trail in a time of 4 days, 9 hours, and 24 minutes. Tune in as he and host Heather Anderson discuss methods and motivations for this former triathlete as he pushed his limits to set his first fastest known time. Tim accomplished the new record while coping with trench foot and significant pain as well as rainy weather and little sleep. He shares his encounters with wildlife, including dozens of ticks, and lack of encounters with people along the way. They also discuss the challenges of water crossings including the flooding of Courtois Creek. Drop in and take a walk on Missouri’s wild side.
