Episode 21: The Start Line Is the Victory — Team Dunk N' Run
In Episode 21 of the WILD Onez Podcast, we sit down with Julia B and Emily St. of Team Dunk N' Run for a conversation about endurance, perseverance, and what it really means to make it to the start line.
We dive into their endurance backgrounds, the experiences that shaped them as athletes, and the challenges they faced on the road to an epic race. Sometimes, simply getting to the start line is the victory—and their journey through illness, uncertainty, and setbacks is a powerful reminder of just how much goes into showing up.
And then there's the race itself.
Because as every endurance athlete learns, the race rarely goes exactly as planned. But sometimes the unexpected moments become the stories we remember most. Julia and Emily share the highs, the struggles, the laughs, and the beautiful moments that came from a race that didn't unfold the way they imagined.
This episode is a reminder that endurance isn't just about miles, finish lines, or race results. It's about perseverance, friendship, resilience, and embracing the journey—even when the plan falls apart.

Episode 19. Swimrun Worlds with Deanna & Andrea
Deanna and Andrea join the show to unpack their journey to the Swimrun World Championship — how each of them found the sport, why they decided to race Worlds together, and what it was actually like waking up at 3:30am to board a boat with 400 other athletes. They walk through the race itself: the early swims, the rocks, the transitions, and where things started to unravel with fueling, pacing, and a brutal cutoff battle with the course and the elements. The conversation then opens up into the harder, more honest stuff — how they processed the DNF, what their partnership gave them beyond a result, and what the swimrun community means to both of them.
