Hello, everyone, welcome to Free Trail Friday. My name is Dylan Bowman, joined today by the great Brendan Madigan.

Brendan, welcome to the show. How are you this fine Friday morning, Friday afternoon, I should say?

I'm great, man. Thank you so much for having me. And of course, you are the owner of Alpenglo's

sports, the race director for the Broken Arrow Sky Race, and we are going to talk all about your experience in the industry as somebody who is a veteran and who I look up to very much.

And we're also going to be making a very big announcement on the program today, aren't we, Brendan?

So for our viewers at home, stick with us. We'll get to that a little bit later on

in the conversation. But the point of today's talk is really to kind of talk about the industry,

talk about the business. Brendan knows much of our industry like the back of his hand. He is a

retailer. He is a race director. He's his hand. He is a retailer. He is a race director.

He's an entrepreneur.

He is a employer, a leader in his community.

And he's got a lot to share with us.

I think it's going to be a really fun conversation.

Again, somebody who I certainly look up to as a fledgling entrepreneur myself in this space.

If you have questions for Brendan,

as it relates to trail running, retail, business, entrepreneurship, drop them in the chat.

We'll do our best to monitor those, pull out the best ones, and ask them to our illustrious guest

here. A big thank you to Orring, who is our sponsor for all of Free Trail Friday.

We are so lucky to have their generous support. I have been a long time Oro Ring fan and user.

I wear mine 24 hours a day. For some reason, both Harmony and I woke up at 4.30 a.m. this morning. So my readiness is shot,

Brendan. So if I suck on today's live stream, that's my excuse. But for our viewing audience,

I would highly recommend you grab yourself an aura ring. There is a link in the description
