Shaun Barnes - Iditarod Invitational 1000 Mile Preparation

Shaun Barnes is a friend who we’ve had on the podcast a few times before. He’s been doing big stuff!  If you remember, we had him and his coach on to talk about his experience doing the Triple Crown of 200s.  Then, we had him on to catch up and talk about the Iditarod Trail Invitational which he ended up not finishing, but he learned a ton!  THEN, we had him on to discuss his experience returning to the ITI which resulted in an awesome finish.  We even spoke to his girlfriend at the end for a few minutes to get her perspective on Shaun’s endeavors and how emotionally hard it was to track him while she was home and he was off running this race in Alaska for 8 days!  (links to previous episodes below) For this episode, we dive into Shaun's preparation for the Iditarod Trail Invitational 1000-mile journey that he starts next week!  Listen as we discuss this major undertaking and be ready to track him as he runs 1000 miles of cold to get to the finish!
