Hey, fam, welcome to the free trial podcast. Of course, I am your loving host, Dylan Bowman, here today with my guy,

Seth ruling pro athlete for the North Face living in Boulder, Colorado. He is also, of course,

the initiating force and one of the co-hosts of the viral sensation Boulder Boys podcast.

And as most of you will know at this point, a few weeks back, Seth enjoyed the biggest

win of his professional career, a win and course record at the Black Canyon 100K, punching

his golden ticket to the Western States 100 in June, where he will definitely be a factor

in where, by his own admission, he will definitely run with his trademark fearless

style at the front this is seth's first appearance on the show some topics we discuss

his approach to competition through the lens of the 2023 ccc where he finished sixth place

we talk about set's background and history with sports,

his breakout race at the 2019 JFK 50, and how Jim Walmsley in some way influenced that moment.

We also talk about Zach Miller and how he enabled Seth's first professional contract, a really

fun story. We talk about the Boulder boys, each of the

characters exploring each person's unique spirit and how it impacts the group. We talk about the

value of simply having opportunities in life, potentially my favorite takeaway from the show.

We talk about Seth's training and the groove that he found

building towards Black Canyon. We talk about Seth's spiritual life, which was really interesting.

The strategy and execution at Black Canyon, we look ahead towards Western States. We talk

about the Boulder Boys podcast and a lot more. This is one of my favorites. Really, really fun episode for me,

and I hope you enjoy it equally.

Before we get to it, a big thank you to our sponsors

who make the show possible.
