Episode Notes

My guest on this episode is talented runner and thru hiker Joe McConaughy: a multi-FKT (Fastest Known Time) holder of many prominent routes such as the Pacific Crest Trail, Appalachian Trail, John Muir Trail and most recently a film has been produced about his 2021 800-mile Arizona Trail produced by Pilot Field called "Racing Arizona" : https://youtu.be/VOPRcISQ6Fw

In today's conversation, Joe shares his stories about his adventures including tackling the 2,650 mile Pacific Crest Trail for his first FKT on a long established trail, racing and winning the Cocodona 250 mile race, dreams of running the Western States 100, what it's like to have his friends document the experiences and much, much more.
