Hard to believe the gift-giving season is here!  We asked the Herd what their current favorite gear is to give you gift ideas for the special trail runner in your life this holiday season.  It's a service we provide to the Herd.  You're welcome.And in segment two, Herd member Brandon Pitzen wanted to get back at a race that didn't go his way last year.  How did it go?  Did we get the redemption he was looking for?  We get to hear from Brandon himself in this powerful segment.
