Ten Junk Miles explained.

Welcome to Ten Junk Miles.

Seven years after this show started, I decided I should drop a mission statement of sorts

into the feed, episode one and the Facebook page in an effort to explain the show.

This message comes to you from 2022 from my basement in Chicago after seven years of

podcasting.

I'm certainly not a professional podcaster or a media person and this entire thing kind of happened by accidents

I noticed that there are people who don't have anyone to run, jog, hike, or adventure with.

These people don't get to have the done to run, jog, hike, or adventure with.

These people don't get to have the dumb conversations

that happen when you train with the same person

for hours, weeks, days, and years.

So I created the original format of 10 Junk Miles titled episodes numbers 1 through 84 or later and also gang shows thereafter

These are just running friends talking about their running lives, non-running lives, and just life in general.

It's designed to mimic a conversation with friends, unscripted, sometimes offensive, sometimes funny.

This show format is designed to be a companion to your run.

I recommend that you listen to these episodes in some sort of order for best listening,

though net required.

I did this so that you wouldn't have to run alone.

At some point I became curious about other people in this sport and I started to conduct

long form one-on-one interviews with them.

These episodes are labeled long runs.
