The Art of Type 2 Fun: An adventure podcast
Type 2 Fun, according to many adventurer folks, is the type of fun that is not necessarily fun while you are doing it, but you are hella glad you did it after the fact. And that's what this Podcast is all about!
The Art of Type 2 Fun is an adventure podcast hosted by backcountry adventurer, cyclist, and ultrarunner, Karey Miles. We feature women and their supportive folks and talk about epic tales of adventure and suffering! Even if you aren't a lady, join in on the fun! These stories and tips and tricks are for anyone who loves pushing themselves in the outdoors! We share questions, and all the juicy deets of how we experience and grow from learning the Art of Type 2 Fun.
