About this episode

The episode discusses the journey of friendship and personal growth among athletes as they age, emphasizing the importance of slowing down and embracing adventure.

Krissy Moehl, Kathleen Egan, and Jenny Jurek set out to cover 1,000 trail miles together, but somewhere along the way the miles became almost secondary. They talk about friendship, aging as athletes, learning to slow down, adapting ambitious goals, and intentionally making room for adventure at a stage of life when it's easy to let other responsibilities fill the calendar.
