TA 1

TA1 will be the home of Adventure racing. There will be weekly conversations with racers,directors,volunteers, sponsors, anybody of interest in the world of AR. I will spend an hour talking with them about racing, training, music, gear. Anywhere the conversation leads. Sometimes we will be topical and talk about upcoming races. Sometimes it will learning about the person wearing the bib. 90% of the time it will be adventure racing, but there will be occasional shows on other ultra sports like Rogaining, trail runs, and maybe even a mountain bike race or 2. Once and a while it might be music or moto if I am working on a different project.
