Solo travel can be quite intimidating and seem like something other, more adventurous people do; however, on today's episode we chat with IHN friend Tessa about the art of solo travel. Almost as if it was straight from her travel journal, she believes “being alone by no means has to be lonely. For me, solo traveling is a way to connect to myself, to other people, and to other ways of life. It opens my eyes to things I never would have stopped to notice. Sometimes, I have an initial idea of what I need going into a trip: self exploration, finding my direction or identity, getting out of a funk, or even just having a d*mn good, carefree adventure in this one precious life we have! But most times, I don’t fully know what I need until I am out there. The act solo travel is a great way to cut through all the clutter and noise and find the purity of your own voice, and discover your own wants, needs, and patterns that you might not have even known existed."

In a pursuit that has mostly been a male's game, female mountaineers rarely get the attention they deserve. After reading Johanna Garton's book Edge of the Map, I knew the story of Christine Boskoff was something that would inspire me for the rest of my life. Chris Boskoff was a premier female mountaineer summiting many of the world's most legendary peaks. She was from Wisconsin, an engineer, & business woman. "Her life was one of unervring forward progress—until personal tragedy struck." "Not a mountaineer herself, Johanna Garton was drawn to Boskoff’s story for deeply personal reasons: hailing from the same small Midwestern hometown, and in fact, attending high school together, though they never met. Their paths seemed destined to intersect." Our interview with Johanna highlights the following: life lessons from Christine Boskoff (told from Johanna's perspective) pursuing your own personal edge of adventure navigating imposter syndrome in the outdoors For more information, visit https://johannagarton.com/

Fastest Known Times (FKTs) have exploded in popularity in the recent years due to their simplicity; they are self organized attempts on how little time it takes you to get from point A to point B. Despite their popularity, there is a huge discrepancy in the amount of FKTs women have set compared to men. After learning about the data divide, Marta Fisher decided she wanted to do something about it. Her solution was starting the grassroots movement, Women Who FKT. Stacey jumped on board, and the founding members helped shape a movement that gives people that identify as women a space in the FKT world. Women Who FKT "wholeheartedly support trail and ultra running becoming more inclusive and would like to ally ourselves with anyone working to increase the safety and visibility of BIPOC, LGBTQ, and gender queer runners. [They] firmly believe that there are opportunities for women at different levels of experience to grow as runners through FKTs." Whether you are a trail runner, hiker, or just curious about better access to trails around you, we want to give you the tools to attempt your first FKT. Our interview with Stacey, a founding member of Women Who FKT, highlights: For more information, visit https://womenwhofkt.com/.
