There's something magical about the trails, and Ace Brown just confirmed that for me all over again. From his start on the flat tracks of Florida to the rugged terrain of Colorado's peaks, Ace's transition into mountain running is as much a testament to the sport as it is to the human spirit. Join us as we trek through his journey, laugh at the inception of the Cut the Cheese Run Club, and examine what it truly means to lace up and hit the mountain trails. Witness the camaraderie that binds runners together, the races that set their hearts pounding, and the moments of personal triumph that can't be measured by a finish line.
Ever wondered what draws an artist to the mountains? Ace, a Savannah College of Art and Design alumnus, paints a vivid picture of how a diverse environment and the mentorship of coach Patrick Reagan shaped his athletic path. As we trace Ace's footsteps from collegiate competition to the buzz of Colorado's mountain running scene, the conversation reveals the energizing spirit of athletes that gather in places where the air is thin but the community is thick. It's a narrative that'll have you itching to join a run club or at the very least, cheer on those who brave the elements to run where the eagles dare.
Looking into the heart of mountain and trail racing, we uncover how the sport thrives beyond just the physical challenge — it's an economic conundrum, a strategic game, and a narrative of friendships built on shared struggles and triumphs. Ace delves into the economics of the sport, the rise of mountain racing, and the delicate dance of competition amongst friends. And with a scoop on the latest footwear trends to strategies on mastering the descent, this episode is like the trail mix of mountain running wisdom—packed with insights, surprises, and the kind of energy that keeps you going long after the race is over.
