Settle in and buckle up as this eight-time Barkley Marathon competitor shares the highs and lows of this year's Barkley and his 35 days on the Appalachian Trail. Along the way, you'll hear about in-line filters, lost compasses, four guys in a privy, Scottish Hill-Runners, payphones, Ranger hitches, and all the tea on his Barkley and AT experiences. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
