  • Finding Balance in Movement and Meditation with Santiago Ortega
    Jun 3 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with Santiago Ortega, a San Antonio runner, run club coordinator, and small business owner.

    Ortega is doing some great stuff in these spaces, providing a refreshing take on running's art form in the process. I'm stoked this conversation is hitting your ears. We cover the gamut in this podcast.

  • The Comeback Tour: Garrett Philbrick’s ultra aspirations, and balancing running with family
    May 27 2025

    Garrett Philbrick is more than just a teacher, a dad, and a husband: He’s an ultrarunner on a mission, a comeback tour of his own.

    With nine ultras under his belt, Philbrick is building out his mileage and time to prepare for a packed calendar of races to close out the year.

    He sat down with me to discuss his running journey, landing his first sponsorship, and why he chooses to run to heavy metal music.

    Follow Garrett on Instagram, Strava, and check out his go-to running playlist.

    May 20 2025

    Howdy, and welcome back to Strides!

    In this episode, I break down my experience running the 20k event this past Saturday during the Desperado Gravel Run & Ruck in Boerne, Texas.

    This was an incredible event with some gorgeous Hill Country trails, and will surely be a yearly staple for me.
