    Jim Sweeney | Running and Brewing on the Beast Coast

    Jim Sweeney | Running and Brewing on the Beast Coast

    Jim Sweeney runs primary on the technical trails around upstate New York and New England, still loves a good old road marathon, and even ran the fastest hundred miler (13:09) in 2018.  He’s also the Lead Brewer at a brewery you’ve heard me talk a lot about…Athletic Brewing in Connecticut.

    It was high time I had Jim on the show to talk about his life (he’s got a degree in forensic psychology, whaaa?), his love of brewing beer, and what races he’s got on the horizon.

    Fun talk with a guy sounds like he’s living the dream. I hope you enjoy this episode.

     

    Jim Sweeney Episode Notes

    Here’s a link to the Escarpment Trail Run that Jim mentioned. Mighty technical.

    And here’s a link to the race I couldn’t remember…Manitou’s Revenge.

    And here’s a link to Athletic Brewing. If you need any suggestions, ask away. I’m what they call, I believe, a prolific drinker.  (Here’s my story about when and why I stopped drinking and the role Athletic played.)

    Alek Simpson | Running Ultramarathons with Narcolepsy

    Alek Simpson | Running Ultramarathons with Narcolepsy

    Alek Simpson was diagnosed with narcolepsy and cataplexy at 18 years old and has continued running ultramarathons and trail races. He’s on a combination of drugs to keep him “normal”, never gets hungry, has extreme light sensitivity, and has experienced sleep paralysis…but none of this is changing his love and passion for the trails and racing.



    In this interview, I ask Alek about the disorders and how they affect his personal and running life. We talk about where he grew up, his upcoming races, and we talk about everything from falling porcupines to a new route from San Diego to Mexico that I didn’t know existed.  Alek is very candid about this mysterious disorder and hopes to bring some attention and light to it.

     



    Gear Review with Ben Zuehlsdorf

    Nathan Pinnacle 4L Hydration Vest ($175 | Affiliate link.)  And the women’s version right here.

    Ben says: “A vest I actually don’t mind wearing. Doesn’t heat me up or chafe. Would be great for Hardrock.”



     

    Hoka ONE ONE Clifton 8 ($130)

    Ben says: “Excellent update to an already great shoe you can wear on the road or firetrail.”



     

    Hoka ONE ONE Zinal ($160)

    Ben says: “Great go-fast trail shoe that you can wear from the doorstep to the trail.”

     

    We also spoke about SOAR Running. Here’s more on the new company from Europe.

    Torsten Heycke | Running, paddling, mapping, and more.

    Torsten Heycke | Running, paddling, mapping, and more.

    Torsten Heycke is an endurance athlete who’s participated and competed in a panoply of outdoor sports. From ultramarathons like UTMB-CCC and Western States to field hockey, surfing, MTB racing, tennis, XC ski racing and triathlon, today, Torsten and I drill down and discuss our joined passion for paddle sports.















    He and I both competed in a paddle race last month in Northern California, me in the 25 mile race on stand up paddleboard, he in the 100 mile race on a Surfski. (Torsten won his event.)







    In this interview, we talk about paddling and discuss the similarities and differences between it and trail running. We talk about gear, “terrain”, the overall scene, and where to find good races. If you’ve thought about taking your SUP past the point of casual paddling, this is the episode for you.















    Additionally, Torsten lives in Ashland (Southern Oregon) with his wife where he’s a member of a group looking to put Ashland back on the map for outdoor endurance sports. Since it’s heyday (hello Rogue Valley Runners?!?) a decade ago, Ashland has unfortunately seen its share of catastrophic fires that dealt a big blow to its running and tourism industry. We talk about races coming up and why you should consider Southern Oregon as a destination for your adventures.















    Finally….Torsten Heycke is a bit of a mapping geek and we talk about how he came to design the official maps for Western States and he answers a few of my gripes/questions about Strava.

    Torsten Heycke Episode Notes:







    Paddling Resources:







    Paddleguru is the paddler’s version of Ultrasignup. Nowhere near as comprehensive, but it’s the best I can find.







    California River Quest is the race Torsten and I competed in.







    The 22nd Annual, 440 mile Yukon River Quest starts this week n Northern Canada.

    Noah Brautigam Interview

    Noah Brautigam Interview

    Noah Brautigam is a Salomon sponsored trail and ultra runner who started life as a xc skier and instructor in Vermont who bounced to the West Coast and has spent the last few years in Salt Lake City. Now he and his wife are living the van life as they prepare for a big move to her native Sweden later this summer.















    We talk about xc ski training, coaching, his recent 3rd plan at Canyons 100k, some drastic diet challenges, and the mindset Noah has going into races. This was a fun interview with a really neat guy. Keep an eye on him this summer then we’ll see what he’s up to in Europe later this year.







    Canyons 100k: Anthony Costales (1st), Max King (2nd), Noah Brautigam (3rd.) Pic by me.
