Description

We're doing something a little different in this episode of the podcast. Part story, part interview, I’m going to be telling you about my very fun, weird and muddy experience at Allegheny Islands State Park. In 2021, I ran a mile at all (then) 121 Pennsylvania state parks in 224 days. While there were plenty of memorable experiences, nothing was quite like my "run" on the Allegheny Islands. That's because the islands have no land access and are completely undeveloped.On this episode, I speak with my good friend Adam Bricker - who joined me for 25 park runs during my so-called 121 In '21 Challenge. I talk about what it was like "running" on a muddy beach in the Allegheny River, while Adam tells us about the adventure from his perspective.
