This is the Monday, May 26th edition of single track news, joined by friend, colleague, Alyssa,

how are you doing today? Where are you today? That's a great question. So I'm up in June Lake,

which honestly, that was almost going to be my piece of the week is just how amazing June Lake is.

It's a little bit north, about 20 minutes north of Mammoth. There's a beautiful ski area, which I shouldn't be telling anyone about.

I'm probably going to get hate for this because it's awesome.

But it's actually a part of the Mammoth 200 course.

They go through Lee Vining and then come down and run through the actual town of June Lake and then up the mountain.

So it is, it's a lot like Urey. It's kind of

this amphitheater surrounded by mountains type feeling. So up here for a wedding. And gosh,

I would move here in a second. How are you doing, Finn? I'm doing great. We are officially in

Twisted Fork Trail Fest week here in the Salt Lake Park City area and honestly feeling pretty good. I was telling you offline, weather's looking good, there's excitement.

I just got done last night in final prep for this podcast. I turned on a couple episodes that we had to listen to in prep here and did a little bit of trail work on one of our more remote sections.

And yeah, I think we're in a good spot.

So things are good.

But I'm looking forward to being on the other side of the event stuff because I think any race director will tell you there's even when things are going good there's still just this like minimum level of anxiety that you cannot erase no matter what and so

just being on the other side of that will be will be nice you know it's just like racing like there's

always anxiety even if you're excited about it totally totally um okay uh let's lead off here with injury news to report, injury updates to

report. The first one, Katie shied out of Hard Rock. She has been off the entrance list for a few

weeks now. You and I were sort of conferencing offline back and forth. We decided to wait to make

this news until it was acknowledged by her officially in some capacity.

We finally have that.

I'm going to read this off to you and we'd love to get your point of view.
