Should We Care About Killian Jornet's New Record?

The Rock Fight: Outdoor Industry & Adventure Sports Commentary

Today on THE ROCK FIGHT (an outdoor podcast that aims for the head) Colin and Justin open the show by getting Justin's thoughts on the new social platform from Outside and how it's integration into Gaia will impact Justin's use of that app (02:50).

Then they run through the following headlines to come out of the outdoor community over the past week:

• Killian Jornet set a new record last week summiting all 82 peaks in the Alps that are over 4000 meters high in 19 days. Why do we care about incredible feats by incredible people? (12:10)
• Canadian Trail Running reports that older runners are thriving as trail runners. What is it about running in our middle ages that makes it so appealing? (21:46)
• Arc'teryx opened their biggest store in NYC last week. Does Justin agree with Colin's assertion that they are no longer an outdoor brand? (27:25)
• Wrapping things up with their Parting Shots! (33:16)
