Hannah Simms is on the show today! Hannah races gravel and MTB for Kona Bikes and The Easton Overland Team. And as impressive as she is on the bike, she is equally impressive in her work on the events and marketing side of things for Anything Goes Event Series who puts on our hometown race, The Fernie Gravel Grind. If you've done this race, you already know how special it is and no, it's not just because of the party! This was a really cool conversation that drifted from elite competition to mindset to events and back and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Oh and if you fancy riding bikes with us and many others in the Tactic community, consider joining us in Fernie in July to take on the Fernie Gravel Grind! You can find more on that race here: https://anythinggoeseventseries.com/

With the Calgary marathon and Unbound 200 coming up, we (Alex and Meredith) are both in full on taper mode. Tapering is one of the most effective ways to get the most out of your training leading into a race but it doesn't happen without some mental and sometimes physical difficulty. This episode covers the science of tapering and how it works in practice.

And in the spirit of mentally challenging situations, we tell the funny and emotionally fraught stories of Meredith's recent experience with scammers.

Today's episode is for the die hards - those people in our community who have been following along with Meredith's concrete court saga. It's the facts versus a completely fabricated AI hypothesis. She serves up justice, hot and ready! But will it be enough to win this small claims case?

If you are just jumping in, don't worry! There is enough background included to get the gist of the concrete fiasco. And this story is just too ridiculous not to share.

The two biggest inputs we have into our physiology and metabolism are what we eat and what we do for movement and exercise. There are 4 unique metabolic scenarios that emerge when modulating those two inputs and they underlie the process and progress a person makes towards their physical and health goals. This episode dives into the how, why, when, and for how long for each of these metabolic scenarios, that we call - The Metabolic Toggles.
