65 -(video) Training Checks Your Body Can’t Cash

69 - (video) It's Episode 69 and You Know What That Means...Giving & Receiving

* Video & not for listening Mid-State Mile is almost here, which means we’re officially in the part where every detail matters and everyone starts checking the weather like it personally owes them money. We’re talking hats, sponsors, porta potties, Fooster joining the race, live documentary plans, course conditions, and whether this year’s field could push the race into Monday and somewhere near the 50-hour mark. But this episode isn’t just about who’s running or how long they might last. We also talk about what it takes to make a race like this happen in the first place: volunteers, trail work, local support, and people willing to pour something back into the sport.

68 - ( Video) Porta-Potties and Personal Growth

*Not for Apple listening We kick things off by putting the raw milk subscription out of its misery, then get into cave talk, race prep, and the kind of pre-event problem solving that makes us stare into the middle distance like haunted farm equipment. JibJab joins the Mid-State Mile lineup as the porta-potty sponsor, which naturally leads to poop videos, “King of the Throne” jokes, and the uncomfortable possibility of Jon becoming the official face of bathroom activities. We also cover getting the spring-water system working, finishing the new arena setup, last-minute trail work, and the pressure of making the race experience better without turning it into something fake or overproduced. We wrap things up with a fallen hollow tree becoming an accidental sermon on influencers, integrity, and why looking impressive means nothing if the inside is rotted out.
