Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Shelby Houlihan - Trail Runner?
Q: How have you managed the transition back to competition after the ban and what have you learned about yourself?
It was incredibly hard, but I focused on rebuilding gradually, listening to coaches, managing expectations, and pursuing new avenues like mental performance coaching. The return taught me to value growth, patience, and the importance of identity beyond racing.
Shelby Houlihan - Trail Runner?
Q: What did the 2016 Olympic Trials experience mean to you and how did it change your outlook on your career?
Qualifying and finishing second at the trials was a dream realized and showed that there was more potential to unlock. It gave me confidence that I could compete with the best, though it also highlighted how much room there was to grow and how competitive the field would always be.
Shelby Houlihan - Trail Runner?
Q: Talk about how you ended up choosing Bowerman Track Club and what that transition looked like.
I evaluated different pro options, visited teams, and decided Bowerman because of the people, the environment, and the sense that I could learn how to be a pro from the best. It felt like the right fit to push my limits while learning how to balance competing and life in a sustainable way.
Black Canyon 100k - Women's Elite Field Preview (Veterans)
Q: What brings you back to Black Canyon again?
Athletes cite the race's depth, the desert setting, and the opportunity to start the season with a fast, challenging course; many mention the potential ticket to Western States and the unique atmosphere.
Tina Muir - Do The Next Right Thing
Q: What impact did public sharing have on your mission and personal life?
It amplified her platform for advocacy, allowed her to help thousands of women, and deepened her personal commitment to sustainable living and environmental action.
