Episode 527 - 2026 Delirious Series - Intro - “One Day, I’ll Get There”: Gabe Alves Returns to the Delirious Start Line
Guest:Gabe Alves – multi-time Delirious contender, systems thinker, video chronicler, and reluctant toe breaker.
Get Ready For:A refreshingly honest, entertaining, and grounded convo with returning Delirious athlete Gabe Alves—who’s back for another swing at the 200-miler that’s become more than just a race… it’s now a yearly ritual.
Why You’ll Love This Episode:•The Most Relatable DNF Mindset Ever: “I think I’ll just keep doing Delirious until I finish it… or not. I do Delirious now.”•The Lessons Behind the Line: From torn calves and compartment syndrome to sleep-deprived mistakes—Gabe breaks down what didn’t work and what he’s fixing for 2026.•Strength, Shoes & Shenanigans: Gabe’s training has shifted—hill reps, tib raises, padded shoes, barefoot experiments, and even gym work (yes, really!).•Community First: Why Delirious is more than a race—it’s a shared expedition with a start line full of stories and a finish line full of mates.•Letting Go of the Pressure: “This isn’t a redemption run. It’s just… Delirious again. And that’s okay.”
Why You’ll Keep Following This Journey:
Gabe’s story reminds us that growth doesn’t always come from the finish line—it comes from how we show up, year after year, injury after injury, and find meaning in the attempt.
