In this episode, I had the pleasure of catching up with Nick Fowler for the third time. Now, you might remember Nick as the guy who conquered the Self-Supported Fastest Known Time (FKT) on the Pacific Northwest Trail and the Ozark Trail in our previous chats. Back then, he was dealing with some pesky ankle injuries but was determinedly preparing for a shot at the Self-Supported FKT on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT).
It's been a fantastic journey following Nick's evolution as a runner, hiker, and all-around person. And guess what? Nick not only took on the PCT challenge but crushed it in a jaw-d ..read more

Jodi Semonell is a strong runner who loves running tough races! She’s done the Hitchock 100 many times, Cocodona 250 twice, Across the Years 200, Western States, Leadville 100, the Hardrock 100, and many more!
Just recently she ran across Nebraska (495 miles in 11 days!) in memory of her son and 2 friends who died of carbon monoxide poisoning. It’s her desire to encourage people to install carbon monoxide detectors in their homes and check the batteries on those that are already installed.

In this episode of the Run the Riot Podcast, I had an amazing chat with Kayla Straub, the beast of Kansas!. Kayla's journey into running is pretty incredible. She didn't start long ago, but when she did, she dove in headfirst. Her first ultramarathon was the extremely hot and exposed Honey Badger 100 in June 2020. She snagged second place right out of the gate!
But that's just the beginning of her story. In 2021, she went back to the Honey Badger 100 and came out as the champion. Talk about determination, right? And then, in 2022, she set the Kansas state female record at the Prairie Spir ..read more
