Milo wants to make sure we link to Born to Adapt, so that’s where we start, and I’m pumped to share our conversation about his film festival entry, We Belong. Milo was a part of the festival in 2023, so it was exciting for me to see him involved once again. I enjoy his insightful thoughts on what made the project exciting for him and why he wanted to tell the story.
It’s gonna be another great year of films at the festival!
Film Description:
Featuring On Running para athlete Zach Friedley and 2x paralympian Dani Aravich, this film tracks the rise of para-athletes in the mountains as trail running races update their policies. The story focuses on Jahir, an Ecuadorian runner born with one leg, as he targets the UTMB OCC race. Through his eyes and with insights from UTMB race organizer, we witness the evolution of trail running and the vital importance of representation on the course.

The Last Episode:
Dick’s-A-Thon
Dick’s is a burger joint in Seattle. One of those IYKYK burger chains, and the thought of running a marathon between their 5 locations while consuming something at each one is daunting. Dylan tells us why he wanted to tell this story and how it came together. It’s a silly run, but comes from a deep place of meaning, and it was great to hear more
Crossing Lines:
Valhalla Vault of Gear
On today’s episode, the fellas link up for an end-of-year wrap-up. They recap key moments from the world of running, share personal highlights from 2025, and crack open the Valhalla Vault of Gear (?!). The crew also talks through goals for the new year and what’s ahead for the pod in 2026.
