RUN

While we were at the Anchorage RunFest, we had the pleasure of meeting up with two inspirational figures in the running community: Marko Cheseto and Bart Yasso.  We heard Marko give a talk at the pasta feed on Saturday of the race weekend.  We think the lessons he talked about are worth sharing and we do so from a bit of audio we captured at the luncheon.  We discuss these lessons and what they mean to us in running and life as well.  (Please forgive the audio.  A fire alarm was going off for much of Marko’s speech.  His message is worth hearing and hopefully you can get past that to hear the meaningful message.  Thank you for hanging in there, if you can.)

EAT

Grizzly Dogs Food Truck was outside of King Street Brewing while we were in Anchorage for the Anchorage RunFest.  When we saw their menu, we couldn’t help but try their signature item, "The Grizzly Dog" for 10.00.  They chop a reindeer sausage and smother it with sautéed onions, peppers and cheese sauce. Yum!  There are other items on their menu that piqued our interest, so… of course we definitely want to get back to it when we are in Anchorage again.  

DRINK

King Street Brewing is a big space with tasty beer on the menu and a beautiful view of the mountains in Anchorage.  You can sample their beer from any of the three stories while you look over into the brewing facility or you take a seat by a window and admire the beautiful Mountain View while having a cold one.  They have a wide variety of styles on their menu.  We talk about what we had while we were there.  We hope to get back to this neat space with so many friendly beer tenders.  

THAT’S A WRAP!
