EP 683: Sh!t You Don't Do on the Trail - Western States Edition
We recently replayed an episode from 2017 called, "Sh!t You Don't Do on the Trail" with Tim Twietmeyer and Bob Crowley. \xa0
We had so much fun walking down memory lane, we thought we should update it for 2024. \xa0Since we are near the start of Western States 100, we thought we'd skew it towards this race, but many of the principles mentioned are applicable wherever you are running. \xa0And of course, it wouldn't be in TRN style without gamifying the episode :). So Bob and Tim used descriptive but cryptic titles for each topic. \xa0We have to guess what they are referring to. \xa0We hope you have fun playing along.
Tim Twietmeyer is Vice President of the\xa0Western States Endurance Run Board and board member since 1996. \xa0He is also the only person to finish the race 25 times....all under 24 hours! \xa0Oh.....and he won the race FIVE times!
Bob Crowley is a past president of\xa0ITRA, the International Trail Running Association, and a seasoned runner with notable finishes of over 80 ultras including 2019's\xa0Tor des Geants\xa0and the 2023\xa0Tahoe 200\xa0mile race.
Both are members of History Expeditions, where they take their passion for history and bring it to life through expeditions that combine historical research and adventure. \xa0So far they have completed four expeditions. \xa0You can find out more at\xa0historyexp.org.
