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.

Originally aired - December 16, 2019Thomas recently became an empty nester and decided a grand adventure was what he needed. He got together with Churchill Clark, the great-great-great-great grandson of Captain William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition to build a dugout canoe named Bella from a 20 foot Douglas Fir.  He traced his path along the Missouri River all the way to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, a 5-month expedition along the same route Lewis and Clark took when returning to the East Coast. This epic tale includes everything from puppies, bow fishing, and flooded rivers, to quaint towns, and peaceful moments of solitude. A book about the experience will be released in March of 2020. You can preorder it here:http://www.hopspress.com/Books/Missouri_River.htmHere’s a short documentary about the experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-JgWTDUta0Video about building the canoe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CipwviRWeCUHis YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/thomasjelpelwww.elpel.infowww.greenuniversity.comCheck out the Bourbon Pursuit podcast anywhere you get podcasts. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Shaw is a teacher by nature and is passionate about sharing his skills and knowledge while inspiring others to join the movement for a healthier planet through his non-profit, Plastic Tides. After realizing the devastating impact that plastic “nurdles” can have on a river system and the a proposed plastic manufacturing facility being built on the banks of the Mississippi River, Christian decided to travel to Louisiana to spend 10 days paddling 150 miles on the Mississippi from the proposed site of Formosa Plastics in St. James Parish to the mouth of the river to replicate the path these plastic nurdles would take. The journey was documented and shared in real time through our social media channels which allowed them to foster support for #StopFormosaPlastics.Learn more about Christian and Plastic Tides below:www.plastictides.org@plastictides@chriscrossshawBorn in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains, Gnarly Nutrition is committed to educating and inspiring athletes at all levels.
