Author and Triple Crowner Vince Strawbridge sits down in the studio with Doc to talk about his unique experiences on the trail. Settle in and buckle up as Vince discusses what it was like hiking the Triple Crown with his wife and four pre-teen and teen kids. Vince talks about setting the context, Old Faithful, umbrella conversion, bear spray mishaps, soiled armor, double-filtered feces water, marital chats, bad math, FOMO, resupply strategies for a family of six, and the incredible experience of having a built-in tramily. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
