ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Free Inside is a weekly conversation with Jeff Garmire and Allison Powell about endurance sports, adventure, science, coaching, curiosity, and whatever else happened that week.
Some episodes dive into ultrarunning, hiking, and training. Others end up about bears, the World Cup, nonprofit work, overthinking, or why Jeff still doesn't know what he's wearing to the wedding.
No guests. No script. Just honest conversations, bad jokes, and the things we'd probably be talking about anyway.

LATEST EPISODE 🔗
With four days left before our wedding, Allison takes a very outdated test to determine whether she actually knows her future husband. The result: a respectable C+.
From there, we try to determine where all the paperweights went, investigate one of America’s most haunted houses, debate whether peop…
PREVIOUS EPISODES 🔗
This week, Allison and I recap the third annual Montana Meltdown, including what we learned from watching people run in circles for 24 hours, why a completely runnable course can destroy you, and how consistency usually beats speed.
Then we quickly lose the plot.
Allison explains why she can only p…
Allison is back from her longest unsupported adventure yet: roughly 180 miles from Meeks Bay near Lake Tahoe to Tuolumne Meadows.
She carried all of her food and gear, refused trail magic, crossed Desolation Wilderness and Sonora Pass, and spent three nights trying to sleep in a bivy sack without a…
Allison Powell decided that her first solo backpacking trip would be the Wonderland Trail—a roughly 93-mile loop around Mount Rainier.
As an experienced ultrarunner, three 30-plus-mile days sounded difficult but completely reasonable. Backpacking quickly taught her otherwise. Her days stretched to …
When Allison and I met, she didn’t own soap, shampoo, conditioner, a bed frame, enough underwear to make it through the week—or, apparently, pants. The strangest part is that she lived directly across the street from a soap store.
In this episode of Free Inside, Allison explains the environmental a…
Allison is officially attempting her first FKT: roughly 170 miles from Lake Tahoe to Yosemite, carrying everything she needs and hoping to finish in around 72 hours—without a tent, sleeping bag, or sleeping pad. She explains why she chose the route, how she is handling permits, food, batteries, sle…
Jeff Garmire and Allison Powell return for another episode of Free Inside, the spinoff show where outdoor adventures quickly turn into conversations about Bigfoot, ghosts, questionable food, and everything else occupying our brains.
We recap our four-day, 72-mile backpacking trip through the Sierr…
For three months, Jeff Garmire and Allison Powell were secretly training for the same nearly impossible Valentine’s Day plan: the Barkley Marathons.
Neither of them could explain why they were accumulating enormous amounts of vertical gain through a Montana winter, practicing map-and-compass naviga…
This week on Free Inside, we somehow go from coaching philosophy and running in two left shoes to an ultrarunning history quiz, terrible acting, our biggest pet peeves and figuring out which completely inappropriate companies we should sell out to.
But the real discovery of the episode is Marie Ma…
What do a Hall of Fame baseball player who chased fire trucks, mysterious blobs falling from the sky, and a 200-mile ultramarathon hallucination have in common?
Apparently... this episode.
Jeff and Allison bounce between the strangest stories they can find, including the unbelievable life of Ru…
