    REVEL Big Bear Marathon, California Recap: Qualifying for Boston After 30 Marathons

    Some races change your life. For Nathan, REVEL Big Bear in Southern California was marathon number 30 and the day he finally qualified for the Boston Marathon. That same morning, Alicia ran her very first half marathon down the same mountain. With Big Bear running under the REVEL name for the last time on November 7, 2026, before the series joins Vacation Races, Nathan and Alicia share a love letter to REVEL and the race weekend that remains one of the highlights of their lives. In this episode: how we discovered REVEL at a race expo, why downhill racing is harder than it looks (just ask our quads), the Golden Driller Marathon that sparked the BQ chase, a year of downhill marathon training with 2,160 miles and a daily run streak, training side by side for Alicia's first half, scouting the finish line in Redlands, why a partner hotel matters on a point to point course, Coach Paul Carmona's REVEL Big Bear course strategy talk at the expo, a party bus up the mountain, the speed bump that nearly ended Alicia's race, the song that showed up at mile 15, and a finish line secret Nathan hears for the first time on mic. Plus, a celebration dinner at Goofy's Kitchen at Disneyland, a preview of our full conversation with Coach Paul in Episode 30, and a little foreshadowing of our thoughts on Boston Marathon qualifying times and the new downhill rules. Marrying Your Passions: The DINK Travel and Adventure podcast is hosted by Nathan and Alicia Adams, married 19 years and DINK by choice, who travel, run marathons, scuba dive, and eat their way through life together. This is a space where your latest adventure is the opening line, not your kid's age. Whether you're a DINK couple, empty nester, or anyone ready to adventure NOW, this podcast is for you.

    Jungle Mishaps, Monkeys, & Custom Itineraries: Inside Latin America with Explore the Americas

    We're heading south of the border this episode to talk with Melanie Marsell and Kathleen Hall, co-founders of Explore the Americas and Dive the Americas. They run a boutique custom travel design company covering Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. With over 20 years of combined experience and more than 3,000 trips planned, Melanie and Kathleen aren't remote agents working off a guidebook. Melanie is a Costa Rica native, and Kathleen has called Costa Rica home since 2015. They know which roads wash out, which guides to trust, and how to build a trip that actually lets you slow down and take a place in. In this episode, we dive into: The Meet Cute: How a Costa Rica native and a marine biology grad crossed paths in the jungle and built a business together. Monkey Business: The hilarious reality of what happens when your hotel room gets ransacked by monkeys. Intentional Travel: What responsible, custom travel actually looks like in practice, not just in theory. Debunking Myths: Why the biggest misconceptions about safety and accessibility in Latin America are years out of date. The Real Cost: What it actually costs to work with a custom travel company versus booking it yourself. Future DINK Trips: A sneak peek at the early conversations around a future DINK group trip we're exploring together. If you've ever wondered whether Latin America and the Caribbean are more accessible, more welcoming, and more livable than you think, this conversation will change your mind.

    Montreal Travel Guide: Old Montreal, Mont Royal & Notre Dame Basilica

    Before marriage, before the 50 state marathon quest, before any of it, there was Montreal. Nathan and Alicia head back to their first trip together as a couple, back in August 2006, a solo planned adventure that turned into a lifelong partnership in adventure. They also revisit their 2023 day trip up from Burlington, Vermont, and reflect on just how much that first trip foreshadowed who they'd become. In this episode: Old Montreal's cobblestone streets, Mont Royal Park’s overlook (then and now), Notre Dame Basilica, Olympic Stadium, a duck boat tour with a very memorable smell, the Underground City, and the Montreal Eye. Plus, border crossing then versus now, a future trip wish list (Cirque du Soleil, the great Montreal bagel rivalry, and Nathan's plan to run every Canadian province after finishing all 50 states), and a can't miss episode extra: BG26.2 marathon weekend details and a listener discount code.

    Tupelo & Heart of America Marathon Reviews: Elvis, Steep Hills, and 26.2 Miles

    Join us as we kick off fall marathon season with a Labor Day weekend twofer: the Tupelo Marathon in Mississippi and the Heart of America Marathon in Columbia, Missouri. These two races hold a special place in Nathan's 50 state marathon journey, Tupelo was marathon number 3, Heart of America was number 9, and both remain some of our earliest adventures together as a married couple. We'll take you through what to expect on race day, from Tupelo's early 5 AM start and rolling country roads through Lee and Pontotoc counties, to Heart of America's five and a half miles of gravel road, the climb up Easley Hill, and its title as the second oldest continuously running marathon in the country. Plus, Nathan's hobble through the Elvis Presley Birthplace and Museum right after finishing Tupelo, a dough burger at Elvis's childhood diner, and the year we watched a runner attempt a record in a full suit at Heart of America. We also sit down with Heart of America race director Graham Bartlett for the inside scoop on this year's race. We also are excited to announce our 44th state and marathon: BG26.2 in Bowling Green, Kentucky this November, including a partnership discount code just for our listeners.

    We Own 3 Timeshares: Westgate, Hyatt & Disney Compared (What We'd Buy Again vs. Sell)

    We know timeshares are a hot button topic. There are two camps out there, the owners who've had one for decades and won't hear a word against it, and everyone else convinced it's a scam. We fall firmly into the first camp, and in this episode we're opening up the books on all three of our timeshares to show you exactly why. Married DINK (dual income, no kids) couple, Nathan and Alicia break down their ownership at Westgate Resorts, Hyatt Vacation Club (purchased originally as Welk Resorts before Hyatt's 2022 acquisition), and Disney Vacation Club, covering real numbers, real maintenance fees, and the honest sales pitch experience at each. They share the story of buying their first Westgate timeshare on a whim in Gatlinburg back in 2014, almost selling it during COVID, and how that decision accidentally led them to fall in love with Branson, Missouri. They walk through how points, weeks, and exchanges like Interval International actually work, break down what a real week costs them in maintenance fees versus retail rates, and get honest about the parts of timeshare ownership nobody likes to talk about, aggressive sales pitches, owner update meetings, and rising fees. Most importantly, they answer the question at the heart of the episode: which of their three timeshares would they buy again without hesitation, and which one would they actually sell? As always, we end with a life takeaway: if you use it, it's more than worth it. If you don't, it's a waste, and honestly, that's true of almost anything you'll ever buy. Resorts/Timeshares mentioned: Westgate Branson Lakes Resort - Hollister, MO Westgate Smoky Mountain Resort and Water Park - Gatlinburg, TN Westgate Flamingo Bay Resort - Las Vegas, NV Westgate Park City Resort and Spa - Park City, UT Hyatt Vacation Club at the Ranahan - Breckenridge, CO Villas of Cave Creek - Cave Creek, AZ Four Seasons Residence Club San Diego, Aviara - Carlsbad, CA Disney's Riviera Resort - Lake Buena Vista, FL Disney's Old Key West Resort - Lake Buena Vista, FL Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa - Lake Buena Vista, FL The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort - Lake Buena Vista, FL Other Helpful Links: Westgate Resorts Hyatt Vacation Club Disney Vacation Club Interval International Missed the story of how we got into Westgate in the first place?

    Why San Miguel de Allende is the Ultimate DINK Destination with Dream Pro Homes

    San Miguel de Allende is a four hundred and eighty five year old colonial city in central Mexico, and it's been named the number one small city in the world six separate times by Condé Nast Traveler and Travel and Leisure. In this episode we talk with Greg Gunter, an architect, MBA, and founder of the first Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices franchise in Mexico, about why San Miguel de Allende has become one of the most compelling second home and retirement destinations for DINKs and expats from the United States. Greg has lived in San Miguel de Allende full time since 2009 and sells around twenty five homes a year there, and he walks us through everything someone would need to know before considering a move. We cover the city's UNESCO World Heritage designation and colonial architecture, the residency visa program that makes staying long term easier than in almost any other country, and why homes in San Miguel de Allende are owned fee simple with a deed instead of through the bank trust structure used on Mexico's coast. We also talk through the cost of living, the year round climate at 6,400 feet, the city's seventy five annual festivals, and the safety and language misconceptions that stop a lot of Americans from even considering a home outside the United States. Whether you're a DINK couple thinking about a second home abroad, planning your first trip to San Miguel de Allende, or just curious what expat life in central Mexico actually looks like, this episode covers the history, the lifestyle, and the practical steps to get started. Marrying Your Passions is hosted by Nathan and Alicia Adams, a married DINK couple (Dual Income, No Kids) who travel, run marathons, scuba dive, and eat their way through life together.

    Gatlinburg & Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Where to Hike, Eat, & Drink

    What if the destination where you honeymooned became the place you keep returning to for nearly two decades because it keeps getting better every time? Married DINK couple Nathan and Alicia have been going to Gatlinburg, Tennessee since their honeymoon in 2007, and in this episode they share everything they have learned about one of the most popular travel destinations in the country. From heart-shaped jacuzzis at Honeymoon Hills to the best Thai food in the Smokies, from watching Westgate Smoky Mountains nearly burn to the ground in the devastating 2016 wildfire to watching it rebuild and thrive, this is the episode that has been 19 years in the making. They cover the full corridor (Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg) including the exploding moonshine, wine, and whiskey tasting scene, the best restaurants for vegetarians and everyone else, the Arts and Crafts Community Loop that most tourists miss, the only dog-friendly trail on the Tennessee side of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and how a timeshare inside a national park became their home base. Plus: the story of what happens when a 23-year-old on his honeymoon asks a small-town Tennessee waitress for "adult entertainment." It went exactly as you would expect.

    Hot Springs National Park and Bathhouse Row: Everything You Need to Know About Hot Springs, Arkansas

    What if one of the best destinations for DINKs (Dual Income, No Kids) in the country was a place that probably never crossed your mind? Join us as we explore Hot Springs National Park and Hot Springs, Arkansas, a city and a national park so intertwined you genuinely cannot tell where one ends and the other begins. We hiked through the Ouachita Mountains in the morning, soaked in a private thermal bath in the afternoon, drank beer brewed from the same spring water that has flowed beneath the city for centuries, and walked a historic street with over 100 years of stories. We also brought our dog, Peppermint Patty, on her very first national park hike, nearly skipped the visitor center and almost immediately regretted it, and came away convinced that Hot Springs belongs near the top of every DINK travel list. Nathan and Alicia, your married DINK couple hosts, share where we stayed, our favorite eats and drinks, the thermal bath experience at Quapaw Baths and Spa, the Beer Bath Taster flight at the only brewery in the world inside a national park, the history of Bathhouse Row and Motel Row, and why the Fordyce Bathhouse visitor center and museum is the one stop you absolutely cannot skip even if you are short on time. As always, we end with takeaways on making adventure part of your everyday life such as a "short visit is always better than no visit!" and "Go do the thing!"
