RED Episode # 78: Training Updates, Wicked Streatery, and a Hot Take on a New Big Storm Brewing Release
RUN
We were on a podcast called Experiences You Should Have with Gail Lovelace Menasco this week! We loved meeting her at Podcast Movement. She gave us a chance to talk about one of our favorite race experiences, the Donna Marathon Weekend in Jacksonville that supports the Donna Foundation in the mission of helping fight the battle to end breast cancer.
We talk about Dana’s progress on his road to recovery from surgery and Aimee’s training plan to prepare for the fall race season. In addition, we talk about how we mix up our runs during training by entering races along the way to change up the scenery of longer distances, including Southernmost Half Marathon. Although a repeat for us, it allows us to have a weekend getaway while staying on track with training and show you more of Key West as a runcation or vacation destination.
EAT
This week we bring you Wicked Streatery! After our training run over the weekend, we went out to Fort Myers Brewing Company for their Kegs & Eggs Sunday Brunch. If you visit the Southwest Florida area, you must have the food from this truck! Wicked Chicken and Waffles, Southwest Breakfast Bowl, and Chimichurri Steak Hash are all must-haves on the menu!
DRINK
Big Storm Brewing had a new release this week: Firestorm Black IPA. We break it down and try it for the first time as we record the show! At 5.8% ABV and 71 IBU, we did not know if we would like it or what overwhelming flavors we would get from this beer. It was surprising. Not an overwhelming pine flavor, but yet another great offering that we’d have another pint of from Big Storm!
THAT’S A WRAP
