Chris Ward is an interesting cat and I've wanted to have him on the podcast for a long time. Not only does he host a podcast but he teaches middle school science, runs ultramarathons--and most recently, produced and co-directed the beautifuly crafted ultrarunning documentary, A Long Way From Nowhere. The film follows the Desert Rats 150 mile stage race and the colorful characters that dare to take on such an event. This movie is for everyone and it's going to get you right in the feels. Don't sleep on this one! Available on March 10th.

Daniel Hobbs is the current Colorado 14er self supported speed record holder. He climbed fifty-eight 14,000 foot peaks in 14 days. That would be a large order for any Colorado athlete but Daniel hails from Minnesota! How does a guy from the Midwest beat depression and climb fifty-eight mountains faster than anyone?

Keith Hayes and Laura Kaplan just completed the Nolan's 14 line. They've been obsessed with these 14 peaks all summer long and they put a lot of time and effort into scouting and completing the project. It took them 85 hours to complete the line which means they were out there (and awake) for the majority of three nights. They were up against some gnarly weather and the fact that they pushed on was pretty mind blowing to me. I absolutely loved talking with them, I hope you enjoy this conversations!

Travis Soares just climbed all 247 peaks of the Sierra Peaks Section. He set the FKT by climbing them all in 117 days. Until recently, no one had done all of them in one season. This was a major accomplishment and a monster effort on Travis's part. He also picked up some crazy stories along the way. DO BIG THINGS Travis!
Andrea Sansone recently smashed the men's 24-hour 14er record. With the help of her partner, the Godfather of Nolan's 14 Andrew Hamilton, she tagged twelve14,000 foot peaks in 24 hours. I was lucky enough to sit down and have a conversation with both of them. You're not going to want to miss this episode! big-things-crewing.com patreon.com/dobigthings
Please forgive the sound quality of this interview.

Thanks for joining me for another episode of the DO BIG THINGS podcast! Michelle Howell is the Wife of a Team Guy, that is, the wife of a Green Beret who most recently climbed Mount Everest! I wanted to hear the perspective of someone who is supporting the guy out doing the BIG THINGS in life. Michelle does plenty of BIG THINGS, don't get me wrong. However, I wanted to hear from the perspective of the loving wife that has the often times thankless job of sitting home and hoping her husband is okay. This is a different episode but it's a good one!
