This is the first conversation of a series that will focus on my friend, Jon Sutherland, and his journey to the finish line of the Angeles Crest 100 mile trail race. The conversations will cover Jon’s training and his background with the race. We likely record at least two more episodes leading up to the race, and then a recap after the race.

This first conversation covered a brief recap of Jon’s 2022 attempt at the race, where he was ultimately timed out around the halfway mark, as well as his big achievement at this year’s edition of Helen’s 24 hour vert challenge. It was a fun one!

Check out the belt buckle Jon and Will each got for achieving the Everest goal.
