Louisiana Trail Report

Louisiana Trail Report Episode 11

We sample a blood orange wheat from Fighting Hand Brewing in Pineville.  We announce a new addition to the Louisiana Trail Running Fall Lineup.. the Armadillo Dash.  Michael slaughters the name of a classic Louisiana landmark.  We discuss Brad's dislike for the buckle phenomenon and brainstorm ideas to replace buckles....we don't come up with anything. We do a trail report on Lakeshore trail in Shreveport and discuss a new trail on the horizon.  All that and the first true cuss word in LTR history.  All on this...exciting, non-award winning episode of the Louisiana Trail Report.  

Louisiana Trail Report Episode 10

Beer Report on a refreshing Watermelon Wheat from Adopted Dog Brewery out of Lafayette.  Mike shares a recap of the Louisiana Summer Night Ultra in Lafayette from Second Growth Running.  Brad's summer adventures up north with his old Tech Track Buddies is discussed.  Mike spills the beans on an almost race, in the Kisatchie, and proposes an interesting idea for a "fatass."  Brad's physical issues with having been born with a "high ass" and the financial books are open (for all to see) on the Old School @ Lincoln Parish Park 2023. (Of course, TOS is not an Ultra and costs associated with the production of it are not quite the same as an Ultra)  *mandatory disclaimer
