Aaaaaaand we're back! Now that the Hitchcock Experience 13.1/50/100 has come to a close, it's high time for Episode 2.  I had the pleasure of spending the evening with John Krecek, Chris Hug and Kayleen Joyce, who have taken over ownership of the Oasis aid station at the Hitchcock Experience race the last two years.Race volunteers usually fly under the radar, but it's no stretch when I say the race can't happen without a dedicated group of people that volunteer their time to ensure the runners have a great experience. In this episode we talk to John, Chris and Kayleen about what goes into getting ready for a race, the satisfaction they get from helping runners and the bond that forms between them over the course of 30+ hours of volunteering at a 100 mile race.I hope this episode gives you a little insight and appreciation into the "other side" of races. Enjoy!
