  1. Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station | Taco, Sushi, Hot Dog Challenge

    Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station | Taco, Sushi, Hot Dog Challenge

    Get ready to laugh your way through your next endurance challenge with Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station, presented by 7 Summits Snacks and hosted by Jason Bahamundi and Adam Lee. In this week’s hilariously unfiltered episode, returning favorite and Run Tri Bike Hall of Famer Rach McBride dives fork-first into the Taco, Sushi, Hot Dog Challenge. The game? “Eat, Toss, or Carry” — the ultimate endurance food strategy test. The scenario? You’re 168 miles deep in a 200-mile gravel race and faced with three wildly impractical Vancouver favorites: a Japa dog, a Taco Fino fish taco, and a BC roll. Which one do you eat, toss, or carry to the next aid station? Rach makes a surprisingly pragmatic choice, sparking a full-blown debate that blends nutrition strategy with absurd humor. Can a fish taco double as a distraction tactic? Is sushi the next great ride fuel? Should we be weaponizing wieners mid-race? This podcast is for endurance athletes who take training seriously—but not themselves. Tune in for laughs, questionable food decisions, and a reminder that racing should always come with a side of fun. 🎧 Subscribe, share, and fuel your next long run with a dose of joy and snacks.

But Becca’s journey doesn’t stop there.

This episode is for endurance athletes of all levels — whether you're training for your first 5K or chasing your next ultra. Becca’s story is a reminder that limits are meant to be broken and showing up is half the victory.

    Enduring Minds | Running, Identity and Healing with Guest Dez Taylor-Douglas

    In Episode 8 of the Enduring Minds podcast, hosts Evan Birch and Jason Bahamundi sit down with Dezmond "Dez" Taylor-Douglas—a scientist, endurance coach, and mental health advocate—for a raw and inspiring conversation about running, identity, and healing. Dez opens up about his journey growing up as a military kid, navigating life as a gay Black man, and using running as a lifeline through change, trauma, and growth. From feeling isolated in a new high school to rebuilding after family estrangement, Dez shares how endurance sports became a universal language of connection. He talks about mentorship, the power of therapy, and how embracing vulnerability helped him rewrite the narrative around mental health—especially for men and athletes of color. With a unique philosophy on goal-setting and non-attachment, Dez reminds us that healing is nonlinear, and we’re never truly alone in our struggles. This episode is a must-listen for endurance athletes seeking mental strength, inspiration, and authenticity in their personal journey. 🎧 Tune in to Running Identity and Healing and walk away with hope, insight, and the courage to keep going.

    Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station | Trail Food Showdown Gets Weird

    Get ready for a gut-busting episode of Food Fight Friday at the Aid Station, presented by 7 Summits Snacks! In this episode, hosts Jason Bahamundi and Adam Lee are joined by Kristyn Carriere—founder of 7 Summits Snacks—for a hilarious round of “Eat, Toss, or Carry.” This time? They’re tackling some of the most delicious foods from Edmonton that could ever be imagined for an ultra marathon aid station. From Saskatoon berry pierogies to green onion cakes and the infamous Edmonton donair (meat sweats, anyone?), this trio debates which trail treats to chow down on, which to toss aside, and which to awkwardly carry to the next aid station. It’s ridiculous. It’s relatable. It’s the most fun you’ll have thinking about race nutrition. Plus, Adam gives an update on the Trail Running Film Festival, Kristyn spills on weird food moments from the Tokyo Marathon, and there’s a teaser about upcoming guest Rach McBride. Whether you’re deep into ultra training or just love a good laugh with your electrolytes, this episode is your reminder that endurance sports should be fun, messy, and full of surprises—like chocolate at mile 30.
