USARA's The Checkpoint: Episode 2 - The Teton Ogre, The Stubborn Mule, and Racer Anna Stewart Who Is Neither.
Welcome to Episode 2 (Kinda 2.5) of USARA's The Checkpoint Podcast.
In this episode, Brent learns all about The Teton Ogre AR, The Stubborn Mule AR, and has a longer interview with racer Anna Stewart (whose enthusiasm could fuel a rocketship). Unlike Episode 1 in which Brent needed an assist from Brian Gatens of The Dark Zone Podcast, he takes care of this one solo and does a great job with all of it.
Thank you for stopping by The Checkpoint. Don't stay here too long. There's training and racing to get to!

USARA's The Checkpoint: Flash Episode - Championship team Mountain Designs Wild Women and the Women of AR
Welcome to a special Flash Episode of USARA's The Checkpoint Podcast.
Episode 2 is right around the corner, but before that here comes a new episode with the record-setting Mountain Designs Wild Women Team: Champions of The Legend Expedition Race in Australia. Brent Freedlan begins by interviewing Steph Ross, Kit Vreeland, and Ashley Eaton to open the episode. The second segment is a long and comprehensive interview by Steph Ross of the Mountain Designs Wild Women (with a little Abby Perkiss thrown in there as well).
The Checkpoint is happy to interrupt their regular programming to shine a spotlight on the AR's newest champions, the work being done by Steph Ross and the Women of AR, and Kit Vreeland and Ashley Eaton's success at the 2023 USARA Nationals. Enjoy!

USARA's The Checkpoint: Episode 1 - Two RD's and a PT Walk Into A Podcast
Welcome to Episode 1 of USARA's The Checkpoint Podcast.
Join Brent Freedland (with a little help from Brian Gatens of The Dark Zone: An Adventure Racing Podcast) as he interviews race directors from across the U.S. Thank you to Brian for his longform interview of PT Dr. Karyn Dulaney as she breaks down how adventure racers can, well, not break down by taking care of themselves in a variety of ways.
Thank you for stopping by The Checkpoint. Don't stay here too long. There's training and racing to get to!
