Howdy?

Welcome to my humble internet abode!

If you are looking for the Singletrack Podcast, you can find it on Apple here, Spotify here, and Youtube here.

The Ultimate Goal.

My "personal moonshoot", a phrase coined by Tyler Cowen, is to accomplish the following:

  1. Create a 100 mile race in the Central Wasatch Range, starting and finishing on Main Street in Park City, UT by 2024.
  2. Testing 100-mile mountain ultra trail racing in the winter or summer olympics by 2034.
  3. Start a competitive trail running team in Salt Lake City, UT by 2036.
  4. Establish an American "Major League" Ultra Running League by 2040.

I will be working diligently on this project throughout the 2020s.
