Elise is a runner, author and all-round outdoors lover. In 2016 she became the first woman and youngest person to run self-supported around the coast of the UK – an adventure she was completely unqualified for, as an unexperienced runner whose athletic career consisted of one horrendous marathon dressed as a Crayola crayon. She is the author of best-selling book Coasting, which tells the story of her adventure and aims to show others that you don’t need to be the best at something to achieve something big. You just have to be the one who does it. Buy her book, Coasting, at her website:www.elisedowning.com@elisecdowning (Instagram + Twitter) Born in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains, Gnarly Nutrition is committed to educating and inspiring athletes at all levels.

Originally aired October 21, 2019West was born and raised in Texas and found his love of water at an early age. He was heavily involved in the water sports scene in Austin for years, organizing cleanups, races, etc. However, it wasn’t until his first trip out of the county, at the age of 46, that West decided to pursue an enormous expedition, paddling the entire length of the Amazon River. This led West to organize The 2012 National Geographic Amazon Express Expedition, which was his first expedition. It started at the newly discovered/confirmed source of the Amazon, which added almost 100 miles to the river, and after 111 days, they made it to the Atlantic Ocean, 75 miles east of Belem, Brazil.West is also the first to kayak Europe's longest river 2200 mile Volga River in Russia. In 2020 he and his group will be the first to kayak the entire Northwest Passage - 1,900 miles across the Canadian Arctic Archipelago with the “Arctic Cowboys”.Check out his new book at the link below!westhansen.comFB: @westhansenexpeditions Insta: @westhansenexpeditionsDocumentary: "Peeled Faces on the Amazon: The Story of the Amazon Express." New Book!: The Amazon From Source to SeaSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Originally aired - April 05, 2019Today’s revisited episode features someone who’s balancing the delicate act of being an epic adventurer and a normal family man. Sean Green uses his precious time off work to climb and bike down the Munros of Scotland, a list of 282 mountain peaks that are scattered across the country.Currently, Sean is approaching the halfway point of the project and it has been nothing short of a true adventure thus far. From terrible weather, broken vehicles, and totally decimated itineraries, there’s something all of us can learn from Sean, you don’t have to be a full-time adventure athlete to do incredible things.We hope you enjoy this down-to-earth conversation and we hope you get out there and plan something yourself.Instagram: @grizzly_munro_diariesFacebook: @Grizzly Munro DiariesSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Award-winning adventure romance author Stacy Gold would rather be on a river in the middle of nowhere than almost anywhere else. For fifteen years she worked as a commercial raft guide, river ranger, safety boater and kayak instructor in the southeast, Rocky Mountains and PNW. Since 1987 she’s run more than fifty rivers in three countries, including self-support kayaking the Grand Canyon.While her “creeking” days are behind her, Ms. Gold’s basement is still stacked with play boats, squirt boats, a tandem, and a couple river runners—and they are not gathering dust. When she’s not busy kayaking, skiing, mountain biking, or hiking, with her husband and happy dogs, she writes stories about independent, capable women finding love and adventure in the great outdoors. Her latest novel, Wild at Heart, recently released. Website: http://stacygold.comInstagram: @AuthorStacyGoldTwitter: @AuthorStacyGoldNew book: Wild at HeartBorn in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains, Gnarly Nutrition is committed to educating and inspiring athletes at all levels.

Now, he's on a journey to be the first person ever to set 100 FKT records.When Jason was approaching his goal of 100 FKTs, he wanted to do something special for the last one. What sort of adventure would be worthy of number 100? After pouring over different options for routes and peaks he came across a challenge he couldn't resist, Washington's Bulger List, the highest 100 peaks in the state, a lifetime challenge for most that attempt it but Jason, being a teacher, only had 50 days in the summer to complete it.Athletic Brewing was able to partner with the amazing folks at WZRD Media to film Jason’s adventure through the new documentary, Journey to 100.

In 2018, James Scanlan was living in Egypt but had grown tired of the Cairo dust. He looked west along the lines of latitude until he found Agadir in Morocco, packed a bag, took a plane and set off to walk back to his family home in Taunton, England.He’s recently written a book about the first leg—A Moroccan Journey: Agadir to Tangier on Foot—a heady mix of blankly staring from café terraces and experiencing the warmth and hospitality of strangers as he tramped over 1,000 kilometers along the Atlantic coast of Morocco to Tangier.Book: A Moroccan Journey: Agadir to Tangier on Foot Blog: jimsknees.comWebsite:www.james-scanlan.comInstagram: @jamesmscanlanBorn in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains, Gnarly Nutrition is committed to educating and inspiring athletes at all levels.
