Bonus Smiles S2E6: Reflections

Bonus Smiles S2E6: Reflections

Welcome to the first reflection episode of season 2 ! We look back on the UltrAspire mini-series as well as the episodes of this season. We explore the different ways our guests use music as well as what keeps them going--whether that's on a training run or toeing the line on race day. While it may seem counterintuitive, most of the time, it's not about the running! Thanks to our guests! Jeff Browning, Lindsay Teague, Ricky Urias, Kilian Korth, Nate Clifton, Anna Simonsson-Søndenå, Julian Blevins, Romy Ancona, Katie Asmuth, and Jeff Cady!

Bonus Smiles S2E5: Jeff Cady

Jeff Cady isn’t a stranger to running or to exploring the beauty of the backcountry. While others were learning how to make sourdough in their kitchens, he was traversing the Snowqualmie section of the PCT in Washington State. From hiking to fast packing, it's no surprise that his adventures would continue into the world of ultramarathons. In fact, this Halloween at the Javelina Jundred race, his eyes are on his first 100 mile buckle.   Tune in to learn how Jeff found his way into ultras and the music that powers his runs!

Bonus Smiles S2E4: TrailCon Special

This special episode seizes the kairotic  moment between two races–Broken Arrow and Western States. We’re keeping the vibes high and showcasing what public radio music is about–human curated jams you won’t find on commercial stations and that can’t be replicated by algorithms.     We’re coming to you fresh from TrailCon–the conference that brings together pro athletes, brands, and every day runners in the Olympic Village at the Palisades Tahoe Resort. We asked our guests one question: What would your walk up  song be for a race?

Bonus Smiles S2E3: Blevolution (Julian Blevins)

Blevolutions’ feet have been around the globe from New York to Japan, but running has been a glue between his extensive travel experience and his love of music. A diverse collection of jams have fueled many of his ultras. Through the ups of meeting trail royalty to the downs of when nature calls.but not in way you’re thinking…Actual nature and wildlife!   Up first, a dive into what shaped his love and interest in music!

Bonus Smiles S2E2: Anna Simonsson-Søndenå

You may know Anna from her 165km (or about 100 mile) journey around Lofoten, the Norwegian archipelago. In this episode, she shares how sensitivity is thread through music, running, and pain. For instance, that boredom is a kind of pain. Or while music can be a powerful running tool, it’s also important “to be present in it.” Up first, a look into where Anna’s music philosophy started.
