In this episode, I interview Joe Goettl. Joe started his endurance career as a runner in college over 10 years ago and, since then, has been racing road bikes, gravel bikes, and mountain bikes. He's battled chronic pain since he was 20 and has gone through an impressive journey working through his pain and finding success on the bike. Joe continually repeated, "Don't let good be the enemy of perfect." This phrase shows his resilience and work that has helped him to become the person he is.
Give this episode a listen to dive into what it takes to race gravel at the top.

Super great to sit down with local legend and KOM hunter Truman Glasgow.
Truman and I have been friends/race competitors for almost 10 years, and it has been super fun to watch him take cycling to the next level with good results on the big stage!

The Uphill Goat is back! I had this conversation with Danny back in January, and I'm super excited for all of you to be able to enjoy it now.
Danny is a professional marathon mountain bike racer, racing the UCI marathon World Cup circuit in Europe along with other big one-day races.
In this episode, we dive into his journey of racing from a teenager at the National Championships with Keegan Swenson to his current goals and hopes as he balances being a husband, and father, working full time, and racing professionally.
Danny is super impressive on the bike and an even more impressive person. I loved chatting with him and learned a lot about discipline, grit, and following your dreams from our conversation. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did.
In this episode we talk about Keegan Swenson, and potential reasons to his constant and consistent victories this year. We talk about Alabama football and Coach Sabin's ability to recognize swings in sport, any how that can be applied to racing and being on the edge of change rather than late to it.
Have you found the starts of your XC races to be wild and crazy. It's because people haven't settled in yet.
