In this last episode of the year, I got a chance to catch up with Team Mississippi Speed Record 2023. Not only did these guys beat the record...they actually had fun doing it! The meaning of SET A RECORD is to achieve something that no other person or thing has achieved. Now while this record was established in 1937, and there have been many attempts and record breaking times over the last several decades, Team MSR holds the most impressive record thus far, landing them the a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records. Who will be the next to attempt this massive distance? Listen up to see what it takes!

In this episode we talk story with Jason Magness and Daniel Staudigel of Bend Racing. These two just set a new record for fastest time racing in the Yukon 1000, completing the course in just 5 days, 11 hours and 48 minutes. The prior record was 6 days 2 hours and 11 minutes in 2009.

Brian Sheridan takes on the The Everglades Challenge-Part 2

Season 1 · Episode 10

Friday, July 8, 2022 • Duration 01:14:45

Send us a text

We all know that there is a lot of time and planning spent preparing for ultra endurance races, so having to grab a DNF before reaching the finish line is a hard pill to swallow. It happens to all of us at some point for several different reasons. I've been there when I have to pull out of the California River Quest due to a few poor decisions early on in the race that definitely could have been avoided. But we paddle, we learn, and we paddle again. Weather its an issue this gear, equipment, nutrition and hydration, so many moving parts can fall apart.

This is a story of Brian´s journey through the Everglades Challenge in which he had to pull out of the 2020 race, but went back and kicked some serious tail in 2022.

This journey comes in 2 parts, so make sure you listen to Part 1 first. If you have every felt defeated because you had to pull out of a race, Brian´s positive outlook and perseverance will motivate you to go back and make it to the finish line.

Send us a text

In this episode , we talk story with Danny Mongno, Product Manager at Northwest River Supply about the new GORE-TEX Pro Dry Wear and what it takes to create a product that is durable, breathable AND waterproof. I personally use NRS gear when packing for my ultra endurance races and stand behind the company.

Cyril Derreumaux-Solo Kayak to Hawaii

Season 1 · Episode 7

Saturday, May 28, 2022 • Duration 01:01:32

Send us a text

In this episode we talk story with Cyril Derreumaux, the guy who at the release of this episode is set to launch from California to Hawaii on a solo kayak in about 10 days. The entire journey should take around 70 days .

This will be Cyril´s 2nd attempt conquering the 2,400 nautical mile distance, solo. In 2016, he and 3 other teammates completed the crossing and set a world record.

Cyril and I wanted this podcast to be raw and honest. With all the hype surrounding the crossing, its hard to realize that he is just a regular guy with a passion for adventure like the rest of us ultra endurance athletes. We hope you enjoy our talk story and are able to follow the LIVE TRACKER and BLOG which can be found at http:\\www.solokayaktohawaii.com or https://www.facebook.com/CyrilDerreumauxAdventure

Great Alabama 650 with April Zilg

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, February 3, 2021 • Duration 01:45:44

Send us a text

Racers would be nothing without their support crews during ultra distance races. Not only does it take someone with time, but it takes someone with patience, creativity, problem-solving skills, and much much more to be able to figure out how to make everything run smooth or play smooth when things get heavy. During the 2020 Great Alabama 650 in 2020 I was ultra lucky to have April Zilg be all that as my single support crew! In this episode we spill the beans on how it went from the support crews perspective. For anyone who is thinking about or planning to be someone’s support crew this is a must listen!! Hope u all enjoy.
