About this episode
You’ve heard of bears, moose, and maybe even the occasional skunk sighting on a run...But have you ever been chased by a woodchuck? 🫠 In this episode, I’m telling the wild (and slightly ridiculous) story of how a peaceful 10-mile road run turned into a full-tilt downhill sprint —with a woodchuck in hot pursuit. We’re talking: The exact moment I realized I was being chased What went through my head mid-sprint (hint: it includes ER scenarios) A truckload of witnesses and a yellow lab 🛻 My post-woodchuck escape plan And why this encounter did not happen on the trails (important PSA!) PLUS: Why you shouldn't let this story scare you away from trail running... And how you can get in on a future episode with your own weird/funny/crazy wildlife story from a run. I want to hear them all! 🎧 LISTEN IN to hear about: The fastest I’ve ever run without meaning to What I learned about woodchuck top speeds Why this is now my #1 craziest wildlife encounter And how I managed to escape without a scratch (or a ride back up the hill) 🔗 WATCH THE ORIGINAL VIDEO I POSTED Adrenaline-fueled, slightly incoherent, but totally worth it 🐾 Got your own story?
