Doing Stuff Outdoors-68

Elizabeth Underwood and Philip Nelson are a couple who run and train together. Gary met up with them this summer at a ten mile race they both competed in. They got talking after the race about they how they train together given the demands of busy schedules and shift work.

Lorne Blagdon takes us to Hot Springs, North Carolina on today's episode of Trail Magic. He says he finds Hot Springs a weird kind of place. Something didn't feel right about it. The problem started with a loud rooster at a campground that woke everyone up at the crack of dawn. Then Lorne discovers he has lost 30 pounds during the last month on the trail. And then it gets even weirder when he starts hearing stories about people seeing demons. That was it...they leave Hot Springs as fast as they can.

Also on the show... comments about a 5 day hike on the Superior Hiking Trail in Minnesota and about Jesus Rocks that make you look like you're walking on water. We have an update on the Bruce family fall canoe trip, an interesting version of the classic poem 'The Cremation of Sam McGee' and a podsafe song from Allison Crowe. Next time on DSO, climbing Maine's Mount Katahdin.
