Coming at you live from the floor of The Running Event (hence the audio) from inside the Satisfy booth, Thomas and Robbe chat with ultrarunning legend and Possessed Magazine cover boy Scott Jurek about growing up in Minnesota, fishing, transitioning into different stages of running and life, and how to not break your ankles while running on the pile of rocks known as the Pennsylvania section of the Appalachian Trail. We also somehow forgot to ask him about @yaboyscottjurek (not his account), which was our only regret.
