On this episode… I'm sharing a recent bike-to-ski adventure to Sunrise at Mount Rainier where I — the supposed "expert" in ski injury prevention — made the exact mistakes I'm always warning skiers about. 

This episode is about the two things that quietly wreck a big day in the mountains: under-fueling and under-preparing. 

We talk about: 

✅ The hydration mistake that cramped my legs at elevation 

✅ Why "I'm not thirsty yet" is a trap on long adventure days 

✅ How skipping sport-specific training led to achy knee pain 

✅ My go-to recovery trick to bounce back in 48 hours 

✅ The skier assessment that finds your weak links before they find you

Whatever you're chasing this summer or heading into next ski season, train for what you're actually going to do, fuel before you feel like you need it, and be intentional. Your body will thank you on day five.
