Samantha Wood will be joining me on the show today and we will have no shortage of topics to talk about.
This physical therapist recently finished her third Leadville 100 miler and has also competed in the Spartan World Championships several times.
I am looking forward to going a few easy miles with my fellow Altra Red Team member Samantha Wood.
