Ep. 1057: The Longest Annual Paddle Race in the US - Revisited - Greg Wingo

Paddling: Greg Wingo on Directing the Great Alabama 650 – 650-Mile Scenic River Trail Race from Mountains to Gulf, Facing Whitewater, Tidewater Currents, Dam Portages, and 7-10 Day Endurance Challenges. You might not think of Alabama as holding many records in the world of endurance races (at least I didn’t), however, you’d be wrong! Alabama is home to the Great Alabama 650, a 650-mile paddle race down the Alabama Scenic River Trail going from the northern part of the state out to the Gulf of Mexico. Racers face whitewater, battle tidewater currents, and hike around a dozen dams in an effort to reach the ocean and are expected to finish between 7-10 days.

Today we’re talking with the AL650 race director, Greg Wingo to learn just how challenging a race like this is to plan as well as compete in.

Also, Adventure Sports Podcast is now a sponsor of Greg’s other race, Last Paddler Standing. Mason will be commentating during the LPS in December.
