Merry Christmas and happy holidays my friends. It’s an exciting day around here, and it’s time for our holiday special episode. The third year! The holiday special is when former guests share their funny trail running stories with all of us, and it’s something I greatly appreciate they take the time to do! This year is a set of fantastic stories that I know you will all enjoy and probably relate to.
Big thanks to our guests, here’s who you will hear from:
Jeannine Avelino
Ep. 100 Ice Cream, donuts and film fest. With Jeannine Avelino
“We go for the run and then I see them enjoying themselves and then they come back for another run and that's when I know like, okay, this was a good thing. And then I'm glad they stuck with us and I'm glad that we had this event to help draw new people. It's a great sport and everybody should give it a try sometime in a non-pressure situation.”
Cory Jennerman
Ep. 155 Vancouver Beer Mile. With Cory Jennerman

Kirsti & Shep
Ep. 163 The High Five. With Kirsti Dolson and Shep

Jason Bahamundi
Ep. 76 Run Tri Bike Mag. With Jason Bahamundi
“We changed everything to just literally say “the voice of the everyday athlete” and then we started asking people instead of waiting for them to come to us. We went out after them and we said your story matters, tell us your story.”
Jay Tinsley
Ep. 127 Black Men Run TURF. With Jay Tinsley
“I run for a purpose now, and that purpose has continued to evolve over the years.”

Talking runOn™ skin care. With Amy Reynolds
I get the pleasure of working with Amy Reynolds and her skin care products through my real-life job at Rock Gear Distribution. runOn™ (a skin repair and antichafe) is one of those products. It’s a product that I really like, as it works well and is 100% natural. So I jumped at the chance to chat with Amy about
Allison Powell
Ep. 114 Winning the Divide 200. With Allison Powell
It’s a special episode, so we’re doing things a little different here on a Thursday. We’ve got the winner of the Divide 200 Allison Powell on the podcast! Allison is also a fellow substack author and I’m so excited she was able to chat about her experience in Southern Alberta. She was a lot of fun to chat with, and it was very insightful to hear her tal…
Big Shout out to Brian Gallant, Shelley Chen, and Craig Lewis for sharing their stories as well!
