This week I had the pleasure to speak with Kevin Brennan. He is the creator of the High Desert Dirt Blog. He is also a father, a runner, and a CPA.
Kevin is someone I've been wanting to talk to for a while. When I started this podcast and would do my research, his blog would constantly come up. He did much of the leg work work that I have relied on when researching many of the New Mexican Runners that came before our current crop.
He talked about his early days running and we both reminisced about high school running. He talks about the great Gallup teams and their coach, Curtis Williams. He talks about having fun running in the arroyos of Santa Fe.
Kevin also turns the table on me and asks me about getting into the podcast and my build up to Houston last year. It was fun to hear the things he thought about and where his mind went when creating content. It all felt very familiar.
So check out the blog and perhaps he will get the creative bug again and produce some more content. I hope you enjoy our talk.
Cross Country season is officially a week away. I hope you are able to support your local school and kids. It is also almost marathon season. I hope all your training is going well. So listen to your body, be smart, be safe, and keep running, New Mexico.
